Sequencing analysis of a 15.4 kb fragment of yeast chromosome XIV identifies the RPD3, PAS8 and KRE1 loci, five new open reading frames.
The DNA sequence of a 15.4 kb region covering the left arm of chromosome XIV from Saccharomyces cerevisiae was determined. This region contains eight open reading frames (ORFs) which code for proteins of more than 100 amino acids. Three ORFs correspond to the RPD3, PAS8 and KRE1 loci, described previously. Three ORFs show limited homology with known proteins: NO330 with the recessive suppressor of secretory defect SAC1, NO325 with YCR094W identified during chromosome III sequencing; whereas NO315 presents a motif conserved in the dnaJ family. Two ORFs (NO320 and NO325) show no homology to known proteins within the databases screened, but NO320 corresponds to a serine-threonine-rich protein. The sequence has been entered in the EMBL data library under Accession Number Z46259.
