Abstract excerpt
rts1-1 was identified as an extragenic suppressor of tub2-104, a cold-sensitive allele of the sole gene encoding beta-tubulin in the yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In addition, rts1-1 cells are heat sensitive and resistant to the microtubule-destabilizing drug, benomyl. The rts1-1 mutation is a deletion of approximately 5 kb of genomic DNA on chromosome X that includes one open reading frame and three tRNA...
