Abstract excerpt
Ten mutator alleles of MIP1, the gene encoding mitochondrial (mt) DNA polymerase, have been isolated after in vitro random mutagenesis. Five mutations causing a 100-400-fold increase in the frequency of erythromycin-resistant (ErR) mt mutants in yeast mapped to the 3'-5' exonuclease (Exo) domain, and mainly to the three conserved motifs Exo1, Exo2 and Exo3 of this domain, highlighting the importance of...
