Asd-homothallism of Saccharomyces cerevisiae: identification of asd1-1 as an allele of sir4 and detection of alpha-specific suppressors of it.

Asd-homothallism of Saccharomyces cerevisiae involves a life cycle characterized by a non-mating phenotype and endomitotic diploidization. The former trait is determined by a single mutation, asd1-1. This mutation was mapped between hom2 and lys4 on the right arm of chromosome IV and was complemented by the cloned SIR4 gene. Therefore, we conclude that asd1-1 is an allele of sir4-11 and renamed it sir4-11. Endomitotic diploidization of asd-homothallism is caused by the collaboration of three to four mutations including sir4-11. In the course of this study, we detected alpha-specific suppressors of sir4-11.
