| Abstract: | The nucleotide sequence of a 40·5 kb DNA fragment from the left arm of chromosome VII of Saccharomyces cerevisiae was determined and analysed. Twenty-eight open reading frames (ORFs) longer than 300 nucleotides were identified. Eight of them correspond to the following known yeast genes: EMP24, GCN1, SPO8, COX13, CDC55, RPS26, COX4 and LSR1, also called GTS1. Twelve ORFs are new, among them eight show homology with other genes while four have no homology with any sequence in the databases. Eight additional ORFs are internal to or partially overlapping with other ORFs. The nucleotide sequence reported here is deposited in the EMBL database under the Accession Numbers X91837 and X91489. © 1997 by John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. |
