A genetic fine structure analysis of the suppressor 3 locus in Saccharomyces

A meiotic fine structure map of a yeast tyrosine-inserting ochre suppressor, SUP3-omicron, was constructed. This was accomplished by examining ten intragenic suppressor-inactive revertants for their relationship to each other and to the original SUP3-omicron mutation. The second-site revertants map on both sides of the SUP3-omicron mutation. The meiotic map length based on the summation of short intervals is 45+/10(5) asci.
