Abstract
The invention features methods for identifying gene products that mediate a phenotype, such as drug resistance or sensitivity, as well as methods for identifying new bioactive compounds, by detecting differences in sensitivity of growth rate between host cells that differ in target gene product dosage (e.g., two copies of a target gene product-encoding sequence compared to one copy).
