Nonsense Mutations in the Yeast <i>SUP35</i> Gene Affect the [<i>PSI<sup>+</sup></i>] Prion Propagation
The essential <i>SUP35</i> gene encodes yeast translation termination factor eRF3. Previously, we isolated nonsense mutations <i>sup35-n</i> and proposed that the viability of such mutants can be explained by readthrough of the premature stop codon. Such mutations, as well as...
