Genetic interactions in the control of septation in Schizosaccharomyces pombe.
We have used genetic and molecular techniques to investigate the interactions among genes required for the initiation and regulation of septum formation in Schizosaccharomyces pombe. Our data suggest that the products of the cdc7, cdc11, cdc14 and cdc16 genes interact. These activities may regulate the function of the cdc15 gene product. A model for the control of septation in fission yeast is presented.
