Yeast killer plasmid mutations affecting toxin secretion and activity and toxin immunity function.

abstract：:Mating-type genes resident in the silent cassette HML at the left arm of chromosome III are repressed by the action of four SIR gene products, most likely mediated through two cis-acting sites located on opposite sides of the locus. We showed that deletion of either of these two cis-acting sites from the chromosome di...
