✦ Synopsis
A transformation system derived from the circular plasmid p K D l has been developed for Kluyverom y m krclie. The principle is essentially equivalent to that of the 2 (r/5aecharomycea cereuiaim transformation system. The main features of the system are presented. Using a pKD1-based DNA bank of K . lactia, the K E X l gene involved in the killer system was isolated by complementation.

Mutations in the pet18 gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae (formerly denoted pets) confer three phenotypes on mutant strains: (i) inability to respire (petite), (ii) inability to maintain the double-stranded RNA killer plasmid (sensitive), and (iii) temperature sensitivity for growth. We find that pet1
