Abstract excerpt
Gim3 is an evolutionarily conserved component of the prefoldin chaperone complex, involved in protein folding. We previously found that GIM3 genetically interacts with many de novo mutations in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Removing GIM3 from mutagenized S. cerevisiae cells significantly affected the fitness effect of mutations. This indicates that Gim3 might change the evolutionary impact of de novo mutations by...
