Summary: The multiple mating type system of the Ciliate Tetrahymena thermophila is a self/non-self recognition system, whose specificity resides in a head-to-head, functionally distinct pair of genes, MTA and MTB. We have now sequenced and analyzed these mating type genes in nine additional Tetrahym...
