Genetic Change in Mutations at the T/t-Locus in the Mouse.

Abstract:

:Recessive lethal or semilethal alleles at the T/t locus in the mouse generate new t-variants, with characteristics different from the parent allele at a rate of about 10(-3). Almost invariably the variant chromosome carries marker genes derived from the opposite parental chromosome. New t-mutations obtained in this way are sometimes recessive lethals that are indistinguishable from those in already known complementation groups. Most derived t-mutations are viable, however. This paper summarizes data on the rate and types of variants produced by members of each of the six lethal complementation groups, and by semilethal alleles. It appears that particular complementation groups preferentially generate certain types of variants, and that in general, the pattern of variant production runs "uphill," that is, to less abnormal states. The data are compatible with the hypothesis that t-mutations represent some extent of altered chromosome and that variants are produced by loss of abnormal material.

  • Calcineurin Regulatory Subunit Calcium-Binding Domains Differentially Contribute to Calcineurin Signaling in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

    abstract::The protein phosphatase calcineurin is central to Ca2+ signaling pathways from yeast to humans. Full activation of calcineurin requires Ca2+ binding to the regulatory subunit CNB, comprised of four Ca2+-binding EF hand domains, and recruitment of Ca2+-calmodulin.
