Yeasts are widely used in production of recombinant proteins of medical or industrial
interest. For each individual product, the most suitable expression system has to be …

A small set of distinctive short RNA molecules are found in the nuclei of all higher eukaryotic
cells and yeast, in protein complexes known as' small nuclear ribonucleoprotein particles', or …

Publisher Summary This chapter describes techniques concerned with classical and
molecular genetics, cell biology, and biochemistry that can be used with …

Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a common, often fatal, autosomal recessive disease
leading to progressive muscle wasting and paralysis as a result of degeneration of anterior …

The first fully repressible gene in fission yeast is described. In minimal medium it is highly
transcribed producing a mRNA which is 50-100 times more abundant than the cyc1 mRNA …

Heterogenous nuclear ribonucleoproteins (hnRNPs) bind pre-mRNAs and facilitate their
processing into mRNAs. Many of the hnRNPs undergo extensive posttranslational …

We describe a highly efficient alkali cation method and library transducing vectors for
cloning mammalian cDNAs by trans-complementation of fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces …

Schizosaccharomyces pombe ste11 encodes a member of the family of HMG-box proteins.
Its transcript is induced in response to nitrogen starvation and a concomitant decrease of the …

A general mechanism for the splicing of nuclear messenger RNA precursors in eukaryotic
cells has been widely accepted. This mechanism, which generates lariat RNAs possessing …

The cdc2+ gene function has an important role in controlling the commitment of the fission
yeast cell to the mitotic cycle and the timing of mitosis. We have raised antibodies against …
