Abstract
We report the DNA sequence of an 8 kb segment localized on the right a rm of chromosome 11 from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The sequence reveal s the presence of eight open reading frames (ORFs). Three of them, YBR 1402, YBR1405 and YBR1406 are previously sequenced genes, respectively the RIM2 (replication in mitochondria), MSIl (multicopy suppressor of IRA1 gene) and PGI1 (phosphoglucoisomerase) genes. The predicted prod uct of the ORF YBR1401 could be the putative yeast ribosomal protein L 2 1. A new essential gene, YBR 1403, has been identified by disruption ; it possesses a leucine zipper motif.
