    ..Additionally, we describe a genetic interaction between RPT4 and the naturally polymorphic gene SSD1, which in wild-type form modifies the rpt4-145 phenotype such that cells arrest in G2 of the first cycle with complete bipolar spindles...

    ..Thus, the yeast assay appears to provide confirmatory in vivo evidence to aid in characterizing some BRCA1 missense variants...
