The mating type of fission yeast is determined by the mat1 locus on chromosome II. The sequence content of this locus, and hence the mating type, is switched in a strictly regular pattern by transposition from one of two unexpressed mating type sequences. The expressed and the two silent sequences a

Mating-type switching in the fission yeast, S. pombe, is initiated by a DNA double-strand break (DSB) between the mat1 cassette and the H1 homology box. The mat1-cis-acting mutant, smt-0, abolishes mating-type switching and is shown here to be a 263-bp deletion. This deletion starts in the middle of
