Identification of the gene for the yeast ribonucleotide reductase small subunit and its inducibility by methyl methanesulfonate
Abstract
We have identified, cloned, and sequenced the gene for the small subunit of ribonucleotide diphosphate reductase of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The protein and its transcript are induced about 10-fold by the alkylating agent methyl methanesulfonate, a result which suggests that the gene is induced by DNA damage.
