The control co-ordinating cell division with cell growth has been investigated in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe. Twenty-five mutants altered in this control have been isolated which have the same growth rate as wild type but divide at a smaller cell size. The mutants define two genes w
Adenine-requiring mutant strains of S. pombe enter the stationary phase after depleting a culture medium of adenine or its analogues. Stationary phase cells of six mutants defective at different stages of the purine nucleotide synthetic pathway were examined for cell volume and DNA content, and then
Three sets of mitotic chromosomes were observed in wild type or cdc mutants (nda3-KM311 and nda2-KM52) of the fission yeast S. pombe by the DAPI staining method. The block of microtubular functions by thiabendazole or by the mutations caused their individual appearance in mitotically arrested cells.
