Abstract excerpt
Using a genetic screen aimed at identifying cellular factors involved in Ty1 transposition, we have identified a mutation in a host gene that reduces Ty1 transposition frequency. The mutant, dbr1, is also defective in the process of intron turnover. In dbr1 cells, excised introns derived from a variety of pre-mRNAs are remarkably stable and accumulate to levels exceeding that of the corresponding mRNA. The stable...
