There is no reference to the naming of the RAD1 homolog. I just found the online article "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1460706/pdf/10430579.pdf" with a good explanation: "The spectrum of telomere phenotypes caused by various checkpoint rad mutations: The rad3 mutant was originally isolated as a radiation-sensitive mutant, and recent studies revealed that the rad3 gene is essential for cell-cycle checkpoint regulation (Bentley et al. 1996)." What about adding the hint of checkpoint rad mutations as radiation-sensitive mutants? Peterkarl (talk) 14:42, 15 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
