Abstract excerpt

Temperature-sensitive Saccharomyces cerevisiae cdc6 mutants, under restrictive conditions, show an increase in recombination frequency, as well as chromosome and circular minichromosome loss. The role of the essential CDC6 gene was tested in trans and in cis to study circular plasmid stability. I...
