Abstract:
Evolution of budding yeast after the removal of an important component of the polarization machinery, BEM1, followed reproducible evolutionary trajectories governed by epistasis. Interestingly, cells restored polarization not by finding a substitute for Bem1 but by rendering its function dispensable.
