Centromere chromatin may regulate the Flip-flop type of the Mating Type Switching in methylotrophic yeast Ogataea polymorpha
Nodoka Fukuyama, Kaoru Takegawa, Hiromi Maekawa
This study shows centromere chromatin, via OpCse4 and OpScm3, is essential for Flip-flop mating type switching in Ogataea polymorpha by facilitating recombination between MAT-adjacent inverted repeats.
