Abstract excerpt
Sas2p is a histone acetyltransferase implicated in the regulation of transcriptional silencing, and ORC is the six-subunit origin recognition complex involved in the initiation of DNA replication and the establishment of transcriptionally silent chromatin by silencers in yeast. We show here that SAS2 deletion (sas2Delta) exacerbates the temperature sensitivity of the ORC mutants orc2-1 and orc5-1. Moreover,...
