Abstract
A transcription factor, Ndt80p, has been identified that has a critical role in the pathway that controls meiosis--sporulation--in budding yeast. Ndt80p coordinately controls genes that mediate spore formation and progression through the two meiotic divisions; it may also be a target of a checkpoint control.
