Abstract excerpt
The 340-nucleotide RNA component of Saccharomyces cerevisiae RNase MRP is encoded by the single-copy essential gene, NME1. To gain additional insight into the proposed structure and functions of this endoribonuclease, we have extensively mutagenized the NME1 gene and characterized yeast strains expressing mutated forms of the RNA using a gene shuffle technique. Strains expressing each of 26 independent mutations...
