Cell type-specific chromatin organization of the region that governs directionality of yeast mating type switching.

The EMBO journal - 16 Jul 1997

Weiss K, Simpson R T

Abstract excerpt

Switching of mating type in Saccharomyces cerevisiae is directional; MAT alpha cells recombine to transfer information from HMRa while MATa cells switch using the silent cassette at HML alpha. Genetic analysis recently has defined a 700 bp recombination enhancer approximately 29 kb from the left end of chromosome III that is necessary for directionality. The chromatin structure of this region differs strikingly...
