✦ Synopsis


A physical map of the COB region in mtDNA of yeast has been established. This region harbours a split gene coding for apocytochrome b. It includes restriction sites of seven endonucleases (EcoRI, HindII, HindIII, HaeIII, HpaII, AluI and BamHI). Various mtDNA sequences of this region, retained in a series of genetically characterized rho(-) clones have been allocated to this map. The combination of this physical map with a genetic map of the rho(-) clones revealed that 1) cob(-) mutational sites spread over 8,400 bp, 2) mutations in sequences coding for apocytochrome b map in five distinct segments which are separated by intervening sequences with minimum lengths from 350 to 1,900 bp.

A polypeptide chain-terminating mutation (M5631) previously has been shown to be a +1T insertion in the yeast mitochondrial gene oxi1, coding for subunit II of the cytochrome c oxidase. A spontaneously arisen frameshift suppressor (mfs-1) that is mitochondrially inherited suppresses this mutation to
