Abstract excerpt
To identify new genes involved in 3'-end formation of mRNAs in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, we carried out a screen for synthetic lethal mutants with the conditional poly(A) polymerase allele, pap1-7. Five independent temperature-sensitive mutations called Icp1 to Icp5 (for lethal with conditional pap1 allele) were isolated. Here, we describe the characterization of the essential gene LCP5 which codes for a protein...
