在线虫C中已经获得了30多个独立的抑制突变。通过对两个突变体的回复突变分析,许多新的分离株映射到先前鉴定的信息抑制基因sup-5 III的区域(Waterston和Brenner 1978)。其他几个抑制突变定位于X连锁群的左半部分,并定义了第二个抑制基因,sup-7 X。在针对6个基因的40个突变的测试中,发现up-7(st 5)等位基因在更大程度上抑制了up-5(e1464)作用的相同等位基因。Likesup-5(e1464)、sup-7(st 5)作用于肌球蛋白重链基因unc-54 I(MacLeodet al.1977;麦克劳德,Waterston and Brenner 1977)和推定的副肌球蛋白基因unc-15 I(Waterstonet al.1977)的无效等位基因。对func-15(e1214); sup-7(st 5)动物的化学分析表明,副肌球蛋白恢复到野生型水平的30%以上。- 如对sup-5(e1464)观察到的,sup-7(st 5)的抑制具有剂量依赖性,并且在15°下生长的动物中比在25°下生长的动物中更大。然而,与这种增加的抑制相关的是sup-7(st 5)纯合子的活力降低。致死性的逆转导致了缺陷突变的分离,这些缺陷突变补充了致死性,但缺乏抑制功能。sup-7(st 5)的这些特性表明,它与up-5(e1464)一样,是无效等位基因的信息抑制因子,而其通过缺陷的逆转进一步缩小了对其作用的可能解释。
More than 30 independent suppressor mutations have been obtained in the nematodeC. elegansthrough reversion analysis of twounc-13mutants. Many of the new isolates map to the region of the previously identified informational suppressor,sup-5 III(Waterston and Brenner 1978). Several of the other suppressor mutations map to the left half of theX-linkage group and define a second suppressor gene,sup-7 X. In tests against 40 mutations in six genes, thesup-7(st5)allele was found to suppress to a greater extent the same alleles acted on bysup-5(e1464). Likesup-5(e1464), sup-7(st5)acts on null alleles of the myosin heavy-chain geneunc-54 I(MacLeodet al.1977; MacLeod, Waterston and Brenner 1977) and the putative paramyosin geneunc-15 I(Waterstonet al.1977). Chemical analysis ofunc-15(e1214); sup-7(st5)animals show that paramyosin is restored to more than 30% of the wild-type level. —As was observed forsup-5(e1464), suppression bysup-7(st5)is dose dependent and is greater in animals grown at 15° than at 25°. However, associated with this increased suppression is a decreased viability ofsup-7(st5)homozygotes. Reversion of the lethality has resulted in the isolation of deficiency mutations that complementst5lethality, but lack suppressor function. These properties ofsup-7(st5)suggest that it, likesup-5(e1464), is an informational suppressor of null alleles, and its reversionviadeficiencies further narrows the possible explanations of its action.
