An edeine resistant mRNA‐dependent protein synthesis system from a Saccharomyces cerevisiae mutant

Abstract
A cell‐free protein synthesizing system from a mutant of Saccharomyces cerevisiae translated exogenous mRNA in the presence of 2μM edeine, while a similar system from wild‐type strain was completely inhibited by the drug. The mutant ribosomes showed an affinity for [125I]edeine comparable to the wild‐type ribosomes, thereby suggesting that these macromolecules alone were not responsible for the edeine‐resistant capacity of the mutant.
