Abstract excerpt
Schizosaccharomyces pombe rad2 is involved in Okazaki fragments processing during lagging-strand DNA replication. Previous studies identified several slr mutants that are co-lethal with rad2Delta and sensitive to methyl methanesulfonate as single mutants. One of these mutants, slr3-1, is characterized here. Complementation and sequence analyses show that slr3-1 (mcl1-101) is allelic to mcl1(+), which is required...
