Abstract excerpt
We have combined techniques of genetics and histochemistry to identify genes required for the nucleocytoplasmic export of mRNA in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We adapted in situ hybridization using a digoxigenin-labeled oligo(dT)50 probe to localize poly(A)+ RNA in fixed yeast cells and used yeast strains carrying the rna1-1 mutation to develop an assay. The rna1-1 mutation is the only previously...
