title: [Spontaneous mutation of leu2 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae].
abstract: The data obtained indicate that spontaneous mutations in Saccharomyces cerevisiae are formed during DNA replication. With no DNA replication in the lag-period, in the stationary growth phase, spontaneous mutations are not formed in cell culture during the G1 phase of cell cycle. Experimental data show the absence of primary spontaneously occurring DNA lesion accumulation in the cell G1 phase. Spontaneous mutations of yeasts are formed in the S phase of cell cycle, apparently as DNA replication errors. It is established that the frequency of spontaneous reversions of the leu2 gene in Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain NA3-24 increases when the cells are cultivated on the culture medium with different concentrations of leucine.
