Mitochondrial genome of Saccharomyces douglasii: genes coding for components of the protein synthetic apparatus.

abstract：:Single-strand breaks (SSB) are discontinuities in one strand of the DNA double helix and are the most common type of damages that arise in cells. SSBs arise mainly from direct attack by intracellular metabolites, however, also essential nuclear processes generate SSBs as intermediates. During the catalytic cycle of DN...

abstract：:Ime1 plays a pivotal role in the initiation of meiosis in a/alpha diploid cells of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In the absence of glucose and nitrogen, IME1 expression is greater in a/alpha cells than in either a or alpha cells and therefore only a/alpha, but not a/a or alpha/alpha, cells are committed to sporulation. It...
