A transcriptional fusion of the Escherichia coli uspA promoter to luxCDABE was characterized and compared with a heat shock-responsive grpE'::lux fusion. Similarities in range and rank order of inducing conditions were observed; however, the magnitude of induction was typically greater for the grpE'::lux fusion strain.

The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae has three G1 cyclin (CLN) genes with overlapping functions. To analyze the functions of the various CLN genes, we examined mutations that result in lethality in conjunction with loss of cln1 and cln2. We have isolated alleles of RAD27/ERC11/YKL510, the yeast homolog of the gene encoding flap endonuclease 1, FEN-1.cln1 cln2 rad27/erc11 cells arrest in S phase; this cell cycle arrest is suppressed by the expression of CLN1 or CLN2 but not by that of CLN3 or the hyperactive CLN3-2. rad27/erc11 mutants are also defective in DNA damage repair, as determined by their increased sensitivity to …
