Using the <it>cre-lox</it> recombination system to assess functional impairment caused by amino acid substitutions in yeast proteins

<p>A method was developed to assess the functional significance of a sequence motif in yeast Upf3p, a protein required for nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD). The motif lies at the edge of the Upf3p-Upf2p interaction domain, but at the same time resembles the canonical leucine-rich nuclear exp...
