Preliminary biochemical evidence for an ascospore coat protein in Saccharomyces cerevisiae : partial characterization and timing of synthesis

Creator:

Honda, Sandra

Abstract:

Sporulation in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae involves the process of meiosis which is accompanied by ascospore formation. Using intact cells or spores, preliminary biochemical evidence is given to identify ascospore wall components not found in vegetative cell walls. Cell surface components are solubilized by treatment with 8 M urea and...
