Abstract We report the isolation, genomic mapping, and DNA sequence of the BPL1 gene encoding the biotin-apoprotein ligase of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The gene was isolated by complementation of an Escherichia coli birA (biotin-apoprotein ligase) mutant indicating that the expressed yeast protein modified the essential biotinated protein of the bacterial host. The BPL1 gene encodes a protein of 690 residues (Mr 76.4 kDa) with strong sequence similarites to the E. coli and human biotin-apoprotein ligases. BPL1 was mapped to chromosome IV, is allelic to the previously described ACC2 gene, and encodes the major (if not the only) biotin-apoprotein ligase activity of S. cerevisiae.
