Additional studies, such as the construction and characterization of targeted knock-out mutants, will be needed to determine the roles of the proteins encoded by these genes in the survival of M. tuberculosis in human macrophages.
Both MTR10 (TAB1 ) and SRP1 belong to the nuclear transport receptor/adaptor family (reviewed by [ 38 ] ). Mutant srp1-31 and mtr10 tab 1-1cells accumulate the ribosomal protein Rpb11b in the nucleus [ 39 ] . Thus, to evaluate a potential link between nuclear transport and the tab phenotype, we evaluated the localization of Rpl11b-GFP [ 39 ] in all tab mutants.
This was also the case with the mutants we describe here, all of which formed normal or near normal amounts of capsids in single-chain homodimers and in their heterodimers with wild-type, Y85H and T91I (results not shown).
Models for recombination posit that gene conversion and reciprocal exchange (crossover recombination) are alternative outcomes of a common intermediate [ 11 ] . Intragenic recombination at the ade6 locus, a measure of gene conversion, was reduced more than 100-fold in rec12-117 mutants [ 33 ] , and we have obtained similar results with the rec12-117 , rec12-D15 , and rec12-Y98F mutants (Figure 2; W.D.
We attempted to clone by complementation genes corresponding to the recessive tab mutations by exploiting the fact that all of the recessive tab mutants are ts for growth (see below).
