Abstract
A gene coding for SEC14p from Candida glabrata has been cloned and cha racterized. Nucleotide (nt) sequence analysis reveals an open reading frame of 909 bp and predicts the synthesis of a polypeptide of 302 ami no acid (aa) residues. Comparison of nt and aa sequences shows that th e gene exhibits a much higher homology to the Saccharomyces cerevisiae (72% and 87%, respectively) than to the Candida albicans (55% and 65% , respectively) SEC14 gene.
