title: A minisatellite sequence in the upstream region of the DURA3 gene from the halotolerant yeast Debaryomyces hansenii.
abstract: The URA3 gene of Debaryomyces hansenii, encoding orotidine 5'-phosphate decarboxylase enzyme, was isolated by complementation in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The deduced amino acid sequence is highly similar to Ura3 proteins from other yeast and fungal species. Analysis of the region upstream of the coding sequence revealed the presence of AG-rich minisatellite DNA sequences. In addition, upstream of the DURA3 sequence, we have found the 3'-terminal of a gene encoding a GEA2-like protein.
