Abstract excerpt
To isolate some new genes controlling the process of spontaneous mutagenesis, a collection of 16 yeast strains with enhanced rate of spontaneous canavanine resistant mutations was obtained. Genetical analysis allowed to define that the mutator phenotype of these strains is due to a single nuclear mutation. Such mutations were called hsm (high spontaneous mutagenesis). Recombinational test showed that 5 mutants...
