Interconversion of yeast cell types by transposable genes

|July 1, 1980

Summary

Budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae switches mating types via unidirectional transfer of genetic information from HMRa and HML alpha loci to the MAT locus. This programmed process explains yeast cell type interconversion.
