    Notes: Abstract In this paper we report a new retrotransposon-like element ofDrosophila melanogaster calledTirant. This sequence is moderately repeated in the genome of this species and it has been found to be widely dispersed throughout its distribution area. From Southern blot andin situ analyses, this sequence appears to be mobile inD. melanogaster, since its chromosome location and the hybridization patterns vary among the different strains analyzed. In this way, partial sequencing ofTirant ends suggests that it is a retrotransposon, since it is flanked by two LTRs. The presence of sequences homologous toTirant has been also investigated in 28 species of the genusDrosophila by means of Southern analyses. These sequences were only detected in species frommelanogaster andobscura groups. These data suggest that ancestral sequences ofTirant appeared after the Sophophora radiation and before the divergence of those groups.

    Notes: Abstract The study of a heterochromatic P sequence of D. subobscura reveals that it is a degraded element, located at the centromeric region of the A chromosome (X chromosome in this species), and that it is strongly diverged from the euchromatic P sequences previously described in this species. This heterochromatic sequence is composed of some P element fragments embedded in undefined β-heterochromatic sequences. These mosaic P sequences do not show any transcriptional activity and seem to be ancient parasites of the D. subobscura genome. Phylogenetic analyses indicate that both the euchromatic and heterochromatic P sequences of D. subobscura could come from an ancestral element which was present before the divergence of the subobscura species cluster.

    Notes: The DNA sequence of a 4·1 kb region of Saccharomyces cerevisiae chromosome IV was determined. This region contains a single open reading frame which codes for a member of the hexose transporter family. This new gene has been named HXT15 according to yeast gene data bases. The sequence has been entered in the EMBL data library under Accession Number X92891.
