Abstract excerpt

We have studied the influence of a temperature-sensitive cdc2-1 mutation in DNA polymerase delta on the selection-induced mutation occurring at the LYS-2 locus in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. It was found that in cells plated on synthetic complete medium lacking only lysine, the numbers of...
