Abstract excerpt
Mutations conferring synthetic lethality in combination with null mutations in CAP2, the gene encoding the beta subunit of capping protein of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, were obtained in a colony color assay. Monogenic inheritance was found for four mutations, which were attributed to three genetic loci. One mutation, sac6-69, is in the gene encoding fimbrin, another actin-binding protein, which was expected...
