Abstract excerpt
In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the cyclin-dependent kinase Bur1 is primarily known for its role in promoting transcription elongation, thereby regulating gene expression. In this study, we investigated the genetic interactions between a hypomorphic BUR1 allele (bur1-107) and null mutants of the checkpoint kinases Mec1 and Rad53. Remarkably, bur1-107 alleviated the sensitivity of mec1 and rad53 mutants to...
