Interaction of UAG suppressors and omnipotent suppressors in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Haploids bearing the dominant UAG suppressor, SUP7-a, and various alleles of the omnipotent suppressor sup35 were examined. The presence of the UAG suppressor reduced the efficiency of some alleles of sup35, and caused other sup35 alleles to be lethal. A nonclassical interaction of the dominant suppressor tRNA and the ribosome is proposed to explain these observations.

Inhibition of growth by amber suppressors in yeast.
Strains of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae that contain highly efficient amber (UAG) suppressors grow poorly on nutrient medium, while normal or nearly normal growth rates are observed when these strains lose the supressors or when the suppressors are mutated to lower efficiencies. The different growth rates account for the accumulation of mutants with lowered efficiencies in cultures of str...
متن کاملNonsense suppressors of yeast cause osmotic-sensitive growth.
Many nonsense suppressors of Saccharomyces cerevisiae cause growth inhibition on hypertonic media. Eight tyrosine-inserting UAA (ochre) suppressors, eight tyrosine-inserting UAG (amber) suppressors, a leucine-inserting UAG suppressor, and a serine-inserting recessive lethal UAG suppressor cause osmotic sensitivity, whereas a serine-inserting UAA suppressor does not cause sensitivity. Although t...
متن کاملRecessive nonsense suppressors in Saccharomyces cerevisiae: action spectra, complementation groups and map positions.
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 ri...
متن کاملRecessive UAA suppressors of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Recessive lysine-independent revertants were isolated from a psi + haploid strain of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae containing one of the leucine-inserting UAA suppressors, SUP29, and various UAA mutations including lys1-1. The majority of the revertants were found to have recessive suppressors in addition to the pre-existing SUP29 mutation. The recessive suppressors were able to suppress o...
متن کاملNonsense mutations in the can1 locus of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Yeast mutants resistant to L-canavanine were selected. All were recessive and fell into the can1 complementation group. Nonsense mutations were identified among them by using a set of different suppressors. Frequencies of UAA, UAG, and presumed UGA mutations were 14.8, 0.8, and 0.4%, respectively. A high incidence of nonsense mutations having discriminatory suppression patterns was characterist...
