Mutations selected as suppressors of Ty and solo delta insertion mutations is Saccharomyces cerevisiae have identified a number of genes important for transcription initiation. One of these gens, SPT15, encodes the TATA-binding protein, and three others, SPT3, SPT7, and SPT8, encode proteins functionally related to the TATA-binding protein. To identify additional related functions, we have selected for new spt mutations. This work has identified one new gene, SPT20. Null mutations in SPT20 cause ...[more]
