Notes:
FAR3 is a newly-discovered yeast gene required specifically for pheromone-mediated cell cycle arrest. I have used strains harboring the far3-1 mutation to map the gene to the right arm of chromosome XIII, establishing the gene order CEN13-LYS7-MCM1-FAR3. I cloned the FAR3 gene based on its genetic map position using a strategy that combined chromosome walking and a related technique termed ‘chromosome rolling’. In addition to the genetic and physical localization of FAR3, I present data that suggest corrections to the tentative map positions of VAN1 and ARG80.
