A mutation pgi1 in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae conferring deficiency of the glycolytic enzyme glucose 6-phosphate isomerase is characterised genetically. The mutation segregates 2+:2- in tetrads from diploids heterozygous for the mutant phenotype. The mutation is semi-dominant and is located

We have cloned and sequenced the PGI1 gene, encoding phosphoglucose isomerase (E.C.5.3.1.9), from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The nucleotide sequence predicts subunits of 554 amino acids with a molecular weight of 61,230. Both the size and amino acid composition correlate well with measurements from p
A single recessive nuclear gene mutation has been isolated from strain 123.1C of Saccharomyces cerevisiae which appears to be conditionally deficient in nuclear DNA metabolism. Growth of the mutant strain at the elevated temperature of 36 degree C results in rapid loss of cell viability. However, no
