The [KIL-d] cytoplasmic genetic element of yeast results in epigenetic regulation of viral M double-stranded RNA gene expression.

Abstract excerpt

[KIL-d] is a cytoplasmically inherited genetic trait that causes killer virus-infected cells of Saccharomyces cerevisiae to express the normal killer phenotypes in a/alpha cells, but to show variegated defective killer phenotypes in a or alpha type cells. Mating of [KIL-d] haploids results in "healing" of their phenotypic defects, while meiosis of the resulting diploids results in "resetting" of the variegated,...
