Abstract excerpt
Circular RNA replicons have been reported in plants and, in one case, in animal cells. We describe such an element in yeast. In certain yeast strains, a 20S RNA species appears on transfer of cells to acetate medium. This phenotype shows cytoplasmic (non-Mendelian) inheritance and the 20S RNA is...
