Suppressor screens identify genetic interactions that would shed light on the functions of the gene of interest as well as the pathways and biological processes in which they may be involved in vivo. This technique can identify a genetic relations

This work describes a protocol for a multicopy suppressor genetic screen in Schizosaccharomyces pombe. This screen uses a genome-wide plasmid library to identify suppressor clone(s) of a loss-of-function phenotype associated with a query mutant strain. Novel genetic suppressors of the ell1 null mutant were identified using this screen.
