New Type of Ultraviolet Light-Sensitive Mutation in Yeast

Elizabeth M Parry 1, James M Parry 1
PMCID: PMC247544  PMID: 4555409

Abstract

Four temperature-sensitive ultraviolet light-sensitive mutants of yeast have been isolated. All four mutations show complementation in diploid cells and the phenotypes associated with the rad (ts) mutations are the result of the activities of single mendelian genes.
