Dependence of yeast sporulation on mitochondrial protein synthesis
Abstract
Sporulation in diploid Saccharomyces cerevisiae is not dependent on continued protein synthesis in the mitochondria. Using chloramphenicol, it is shown that proteins essential for respiration and sporulation are synthesized in mitochondria early during growth in a presporulation medium.
