ABSTRACT:
An isolated gene and mutations thereof capable of imparting constitutive pseudohyphal growth to S. cerevisiae is provided. The isolated wild type gene referred to as ELM1 is also capable of coding for a novel protein kinase that determines the yeast morphology and specific physiological properties.
