Cloning and sequencing of the LEU2 homologue gene of Schwanniomyces occidentalis.
A gene that complements the leu2 mutation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been cloned from Schwanniomyces occidentalis. The gene codes for a protein of 379 amino acids. As expected for a Schwanniomyces gene, it has a high AT content, which is also reflected in the codon usage. The sequence homology with other known leu2 complementing genes is low.
