Abstract excerpt
Changes in histone gene dosage as well as mutations within some histone genes suppress delta insertion mutations in the HIS4 and LYS2 loci of Saccharomyces cerevisiae by altering the site of transcription initiation. We have found that three histone regulatory (hir) mutations, identified by their effects on the regulation of histone gene expression, suppress the same insertion mutations. In addition, we have...
