Abstract excerpt
We have inserted a yeast nuclear DNA fragment bearing the TRP1 gene and its associated origin of DNA replication, ARS1, into the functional mitochondrial chromosome of a strain carrying a chromosomal trp1 deletion. TRP1 was not phenotypically expressed within the organelle. However, this Trp- strain readily gave rise to respiratory competent Trp+ clones that contained the TRP1/ARS1 fragment, associated with...
