Abstract excerpt
Despite the abundance of Ty1 RNA in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Ty1 retrotransposition is a rare event. To determine whether transpositional dormancy is the result of defective Ty1 elements, functional and defective alleles of the retrotransposon in the yeast genome were quantitated. Genomic Ty1 elements were isolated by gap repair-mediated recombination of pGTy1-H3(delta 475-3944) HIS3, a multicopy plasmid...
