Abstract excerpt

Cells carrying mutations that activate the Ras/cyclic AMP (Ras/cAMP) pathway fail to accumulate in G1 as unbudded cells and lose viability in response to nitrogen starvation. This observation has led to the idea that cells carrying this type of mutation are sensitive to nitrogen starvation becaus...
