When nutrients are abundant, S. pombe cells grow as rods, dividing by fission after formation of a medially placed cell wall or division septum. Septum formation is triggered by a group of proteins, called the septation initiation network or SIN, that trig ...
As anthropogenic N deposition has been suspected to be the main reason for the decline of macromycetous sporocarp production in forest ecosystems, various N-fertilization experiments were started in the mid 1990s. The dynamics of ectomycorrhizal (root-inha ...
Topoisomerase II (topoII) and RAP1 (Repressor Activator Protein 1) are two abundant nuclear proteins with proposed structural roles in the higher-order organization of chromosomes. Both proteins co-fractionate as components of nuclear scaffolds from vegeta ...
We have developed a novel technique for combined immunofluorescence/in situ hybridization on fixed budding yeast cells that maintains the three-dimensional structure of the nucleus as monitored by focal sections of cells labeled with fluorescent probes and ...
Meiosis is a specialised form of the cell cycle that gives rise to haploid gametes. In Schizosaccharomyces pombe, the products of meiosis are four spores, which are formed by encapsulation of the four meiosis II nuclei within the cytoplasm of the zygote pr ...
In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the expression of invertase, which is the hydrolyzing enzyme of sucrose, is controlled by the presence of monosaccharides, such as glucose and fructose, and referred to as carbon catabolite repression. To date, efforts have bee ...
