A DNA sequence in Saccharomyces exiguus is homologous with the HO gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
The DNA of Saccharomyces exiguus was analyzed by Southern hybridization using cloned MATa, MAT alpha, and HO genes of Saccharomyces cerevisiae as probes. It was shown that S. exiguus has a DNA sequence homologous with the HO gene of S. cerevisiae and that this DNA sequence is on a chromosome of about 940 kb of DNA in S. exiguus. However, there is no DNA sequence in S. exiguus that is homologous with the MAT genes of S. cerevisiae.
