Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Gene amplification is a potent driver of evolution and is thought to contribute to genetic diseases, including cancer. The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a powerful organism for understanding amplification mechanisms. When yeast is grown long term in sulfate-limiting chemostats, amplification of the gene that encodes the primary sulfate transporter, SUL1 , is a common outcome. Here we descr...
