Saccharomyces cerevisiaecontains two members of therasgene family. Strains with disruptions of theRAS2gene fail to grow efficiently on nonfermentable carbon sources. This growth defect can be suppressed by extragenic mutations calledsra. We have isolated 79 independent suppressor mutations, 68 of which have been assigned to one of five loci. Eleven additional dominant mutations have not been assigned to a specific locus. Somesra1andSRA4and allSRA3mutations wereRASindependent, allowing growth of yeast cells that lack a functionalRASgene. Mutations insra1, SRA3, SRA4andsra6are linked tohis6, ino1, met3andade6, respectively. Somesramutants have pleitropic phenotypes that affect glycogen accumulation, sporulation, viability, respiratory capacity and suppression of two cell-division-cycle mutations,cdc25andcdc35. The proposed functions of many of the suppressor genes are consistent with the model in whichRASactivates adenylate cyclase.
