A dominant interfering mutation (CYR3) of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae RAS2 gene.

T Morishita 1, I Uno 1
PMCID: PMC208119  PMID: 1906067

Abstract

The dominant cyclic AMP-requiring mutation CYR3 had been previously reported as a mutation in the regulatory subunit of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. However, recharacterization revealed that the CYR3 mutation was a nonconditional dominant lethal mutation and was a missense allele of RAS2 which results from the substitution of aspartic acid for glycine at amino acid 22.
