High impact information on LEO1

  • In addition, we independently isolated paf1 and leo1 mutations in an unbiased genetic screen for suppressors of a cold-sensitive spt5 mutation [1].
  • Remarkably, deletion of LEO1 or RTF1 suppresses many paf1Delta phenotypes [2].
  • Confirmation came from chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assays demonstrating that all components of this complex, including Leo1, cross-linked to the promoter, coding region, and 3' end of the ADH1 gene [3].
  • The gene LEO1 on yeast chromosome XV encodes a non-essential, extremely hydrophilic protein [4].
  • We show the gene organization of the entire region and report the nucleotide sequence of the gene, LEO1, which occurs in single copy in the haploid genome [4].
