The BDF1 gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is required for sporulation. Under starvation conditions, most cells from the bdf1 null mutant fail to undergo one or both meiotic divisions, and there is an absolute defect in spore formation. The Bdf1 protein localizes to the nucleus throughout all stages of the mitotic and meiotic cell cycles. Analysis of spread meiotic nuclei reveals that the Bdf1 protein is localized fairly uniformly along chromosomes, except that it is excluded specifically from th ...[more]
