Abstract excerpt
We previously described a dominant suppressor of the splicing defect conferred by an A----C intron branchpoint mutation in S. cerevisiae. Suppression occurs by increasing the frequency with which the mutant branchpoint is utilized. We have now cloned the genomic region encoding the prp16-1 suppressor function and have demonstrated that PRP16 is essential for viability. A 1071 amino acid open reading frame...
