Mini-chromosome maintenance (MCM) 2–9 proteins are related helicases. The first six, MCM2–7, are essential for DNA replication in all eukaryotes. In contrast, MCM8 is not always conserved in eukaryote
To investigate global gene expression during meiosis in S. moellendorfii, digital gene-expression profiling of a series of sporangia at different developmental stages was performed by Illumina HiSeq™
Meiosis represents an important event in the life cycle of all sexually reproducing organisms. It is a specialized cell division comprising of a single round of DNA replication followed by two rounds
