Abstract excerpt
The G1 cell cycle arrest imposed by Kluyveromyces lactis zymocin on Saccharomyces cerevisiae requires a functional RNA polymerase II (pol II) TOT/Elongator complex. In a study of zymocin's mode of action, genetic scenarios known to impair transcription or affect the pol II machinery itself were found to elicit hypersensitivity to zymocin. Thus, mutations in components of SAGA, SWI/SNF, Mediator and Ccr4-Not,...
