Mating-type gene switching in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
The study of yeast mating-type (MAT) gene switching has provided insights into several aspects of the regulation of gene expression. MAT switching is accomplished by a highly programmed site-specific homologous recombination event in which mating-type-specific sequences at MAT are replaced by alternative DNA sequences copied from one of two unexpressed donors. The mating-type system has also pr...
متن کاملActivation of mating type genes by transposition in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae may express an a or alpha mating type. These cells types may be interconverted as a consequence of heritable genetic alteractions at the mating type locus (MAT). According to the more general controlling element model [Oshima, U. & Takano, I. (1971) Genetics 67, 327--335] and the specific cassette model [Hicks, J., Strathern, J. & Herskowitz, I. (1977) in DNA Inse...
متن کاملSporulation in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
In response to nitrogen starvation in the presence of a poor carbon source, diploid cells of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae undergo meiosis and package the haploid nuclei produced in meiosis into spores. The formation of spores requires an unusual cell division event in which daughter cells are formed within the cytoplasm of the mother cell. This process involves the de novo generation of t...
متن کاملMating-type genes and MAT switching in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Mating type in Saccharomyces cerevisiae is determined by two nonhomologous alleles, MATa and MATα. These sequences encode regulators of the two different haploid mating types and of the diploids formed by their conjugation. Analysis of the MATa1, MATα1, and MATα2 alleles provided one of the earliest models of cell-type specification by transcriptional activators and repressors. Remarkably, homo...
متن کاملLipid synthesis during sporulation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Lipid synthesis was studied in both sporulating (diploid) and nonsporulating (haploid) cells of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Two phases of lipid synthesis occur in diploid cells transferred to sporulation medium. Phase I, which occurs during the first 12 h of exposure to sporulation medium, was also observed in the haploid strains. Phase II, occurring from the 20th to the 25th h, coincided with th...
