Abstract excerpt
In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, translation termination is mediated by a complex of two proteins, eRF1 and eRF3, encoded by the SUP45 and SUP35 genes, respectively. Mutations in the SUP45 gene were selected which enhanced suppression by the weak ochre (UAA) suppressor tRNA(Ser) SUQ5. In each of four such allosuppressor alleles examined, an in-frame ochre (TAA) mutation was present in the SUP45 coding region;...
