Abstract

Three genes SUP111, SUP112 and SUP113 of Saccharomyces cerevisiae have been identified that can mutate to give recessive omnipotent nonsense suppressors. Alleles of these loci can also act as allosuppressors; that is, different phenotypes, due apparently to different efficiencies of suppression, can result from different alleles at a given locus. The SUP111, SUP112 and SUP113 loci map to the right arms of chromosomes VIII, VII and XIII, respectively.
