Snf2 Proteins Are Required to Generate Gamete Pronuclei in <i>Tetrahymena thermophila</i>

During sexual reproduction/conjugation of the ciliate <i>Tetrahymena thermophila</i>, the germinal micronucleus undergoes meiosis resulting in four haploid micronuclei (hMICs). All hMICs undergo post-meiotic DNA double-strand break (PM-DSB) formation, cleaving their genome. DNA lesions a...
