    Notes: Abstract We have investigated chromosomal segregation during meiosis in a cross between two polymorphic haploid laboratory strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, FL100 and GRF18. These two strains have large chromosome-length polymorphisms for chromosomes I and III allowing for easy scoring of parental chromosomes after meiotic segregation. Chromosome III in the FL100 strain was 35 kb shorter than chromosome III in GRF18, while FL100 chromosome I was 40 kb larger than chromosome I in GRF18. Segregation analysis of chromosomes I and III in 50 tetrads showed an apparent association between chromosomes I and III, whereas only the original parental association of chromosomes I and III was found in the spores. By hybridization with chromosome-specific probes we have shown that the polymorphisms are due to a large translocation from chromosome III onto chromosome I in FL100. The translocated fragment is larger than 80 kb and was mapped between Ty and HML. In nine tetrads analyzed, chromosome-length polymorphisms which did not segregate according to Mendelian law were observed.

    Notes: Abstract We report here the sequence of RPK1 (for Regulatory cell Proliferation Kinase), a new Saccharomyces cerevisiae gene coding for a protein with sequence similarities to serine/threonine protein kinases. The protein sequence of 764 amino acids includes an amino-terminal domain (residues 1–410), which may be involved in regulation of the kinase domain (residues 411–764). The catalytic domain of Rpkl is not closely related to other known yeast protein kinases but exhibits strong homology to a newly discovered group of mammalian kinases (PYT, TTK, esk) with serine/threonine/tyrosine kinase activity. Null alleles of RPK1 are lethal and thus this gene belongs to the small group of yeast protein kinase genes that are essential for cell growth. In addition, eliminating the expression of RPK1 gives rise to the accumulation of non-viable cells with less than a 1 N DNA content suggesting that cells proceed into mitosis without completion of DNA synthesis. Therefore, the Rpkt kinase may function in a checkpoint control which couples DNA replication to mitosis. The level of the RPK1 transcript is extremely low and constant throughout the mitotic cycle. However it is regulated during cellular differentiation, being decreased in α-factor-treated a cells and increased late in meiosis in a/α diploids. Taken together, our results suggest that Rpk1 is involved in a pathway that coordinates cell proliferation and differentiation.

    Analysis of a 35·6 kb Region on the Right Arm of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Chromosome XV (1997)

    Notes: We report the sequence of a 35 600 bp fragment covering the PET123 region on the right arm of chromosome XV from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. This region contains 19 possible open reading frames (ORFs) of which 16 are non-overlapping ORFs. Eight ORFs correspond to the SPP2, SMP3, RPB2, PDR5, NFI1, PUP1, PET123 and MTR10 loci, described previously. Two ORFs correspond to yeast homologues of genes from other organisms: O3530 is a member of the large ribosomal subunit protein L13 family and O3560 (SME1 gene) is a 94-codon ORF and is a homologue of the mammalian SmE spliceosomal core protein. Three ORFs (O3513, O3521, O3548) present significant similarities to proteins of unknown function and three ORFs (O3510, O3536, O3545) lack homology to sequences within the databases screened. The sequence has been deposited in the GenBank database under Accession Number U55020. © 1997 by John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
