Transcription profiling of fission yeast meiosis and sporulation

ABSTRACT: Study of the meiotic transcriptional profile of transcription factor mutants. The transcription factors atf21 and atf31 are highly induced during the meiotic divisions and required for proper spore formation. To identify possible targets of these transcription factors we compared the transcriptional profile of atf21 and atf31 mutants with that of wild type cells undergoing meiosis. We used haploid h90 cells for this experiment. Removal of nitrogen from the medium induces mating to form diploids, which immediately undergo meiosis and sporulation. This type of meiosis is not very synchronous. This experiment is part of a series, E-SNGR-2 to E-SNGR-7.
