“…Thus the SRMI gene is a common component of the polygenic systems regulating the mitotic stability of the chromosomes (Hartwell and Smith, 1985;Larionov et al, 1987) and of the mitochondrial genome (Devin and Koltovaya, 1986a;Moustacchi and Heude, 1982). One can reasonably suppose that S .…”

The cdc28-srm mutation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae decreases spontaneous and induced mitochondrial rho- mutability and the mitotic stability of native chromosomes and recombinant circular minichromosomes. The effects of cdc28-srm on the genetic stability of cells support the hypothesis that links cell cycle regulation in yeast to changes in chromatin organization dependent on the start gene CDC28 (Hayles and Nurse, 1986).

“…Repair and mutagenesis have been extensively studied in yeast mitochondria because (a) these organelles are dispensible in yeast, (b) mitochondrial DNA is easily separated from nuclear DNA, and (c) nuclear and mitochondrial muta tions are easily distinguished by genetic tests (59,82). Yeast mitochondria lack an excision-repair system capable of removing UV -induced dimers or other bulky lesions.…”
