link_group:

cultural_requirements: Unmapped. Not tested for allelism with su(met-7)-1 or su(met-7)-2.Isolated as a suppressor of met-2 allele H98 (B.S. Strauss and S. Tokuno, via FGSC). Suppresses leaky mutants blocked between cysteine and homocysteine. It is probably the suppressor used by Wiebers and Garner (1136) to show that the suppressed strain differs from wild type in being able to incorporate sulfur from S-methyl-cysteine into cysteine regardless of the sulfate concentration. The suppressor does not have significantly increased acetylhomoserine sulfhydrylase (547). The FGSC number is 690.
