A viable hypomorphic allele of the essential IMP3 gene reveals novel protein functions in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the essential IMP3 gene encodes a component of the SSU processome, a large ribonucleoprotein complex required for processing of small ribosomal subunit RNA precursors. Mutation of the IMP3 termination codon to a sense codon resulted in a viable mutant allele producing a...
