A newly isolated, temperature-sensitive mutant of a haploid strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is described. Its shift to nonpermissive temperature (35 C) resulted in an irreversible change to rho(-), causing, within four to six generations, more than 90% of the cells to form petite colonies. Genetic analysis revealed extrakaryotic inheritance of this temperature-sensitive mutation. Data presented indicate mutation of a gene in the mitochondrial deoxyribonucleic acid affecting the maintenance of the rho factor.
本文描述了一种新分离出的酿酒酵母单倍体菌株的温度敏感突变体。将其转移至非允许温度(35℃)会导致不可逆地转变为ρ(-)型,在四到六代内,超过90%的细胞形成小菌落。遗传分析显示该温度敏感突变具有核外遗传特性。所呈现的数据表明线粒体脱氧核糖核酸中的一个基因发生突变,影响了ρ因子的维持。
