    Notes: Summary Mutants defective in lysine transport were isolated and characterized. After UV-mutagenesis colonies resistant to thialysine, a toxic analogue of lysine, were isolated and L-lysine uptake into the mutant strains was analyzed. Among the thialysine-resistant strains a group of mutants was found, where the half-saturation constant, KT, of the high-affinity transport system for lysine was higher than in the wild-type, the high-affinity transport system for basic amino acids being specifically affected. This was confirmed by a complementation test in which all the thialysine-resistant strains with a higher KT for lysine uptake belonged to one complementation group. Kinetic and genetic analysis showed that our mutants were identical with can1-1 mutants, showing that a single high-affinity system for the transport of basic amino acids exists in S. pombe.

    Notes: The uracil permease gene of Schizosaccharomyces pombe was cloned and sequenced. The deduced protein sequence shares strong similarities with five open reading frames from Saccharomyces cerevisiae, namely the uracil permease encoded by the FUR4 gene, the allantoin permease encoded by DAL4, a putative uridine permease (YBL042C) and two unknown ORFs YOR071c and YLR237w.A topological model retaining ten transmembrane helices, based on predictions and on experimental data established for the uracil permease of S. cerevisiae by Galan and coworkers (1996), is discussed for the four closest proteins of this family of transporters. The sequence of the uracil permease gene of S. pombe has been deposited in the EMBL data bank under Accession Number X98696. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
