Abstract excerpt
The accumulation of Ade+ revertants during adenine starvation and Trp+ revertants during tryptophan starvation in haploid polyauxotrophic strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae occurs in a time-dependent manner. Accumulation of revertants is enhanced in Rad6- strains, suggesting that starvation-induced reversion is influenced by some of the RAD6 gene functions. The higher frequency of adaptive reversions in Rad6-...
