The complete sequence of a 36 196 bp DNA segment located on the right arm of chromosome XV of Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been determined and analysed. The sequence includes the 5 coding region of the SNF2 gene, the CPA1 leader peptide sequence and 17 open reading frames (ORFs) of at least 100 amin

✦ Synopsis
The complete nucleotide sequence of a 33 221 bp segment, contained in cosmid pEOA1044, derived from the left arm of chromosome XV of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, appears in public databases between coordinates 177013 and 210234 (http://speedy.mips.biochem.mpg.de/). Computer analysis of that sequence revealed the presence of the previously known genes IRA2, DEC1, NUF2, HST1, RTG1, RIB2 and HAL2, one previously partially sequenced open reading frame (ORF) of unknown function (SCORFAC) and ten newly identified ORFs. One of the new ORFs is similar to the Drosophila melanogaster white gene and other transmembrane ABC transporters, another one has similarities to inositol phosphatases and others are similar to ORFs of unknown function from various organisms, including human Expressed Sequence Tags (ESTs). Potential transmembrane regions, ATP/GTP-binding and WD motifs have also been identified. The existence of yeast ESTs for two of the newly identified ORFs indicates that they are transcribed. 1997 by John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

The nucleotide sequence of 35 400 bp at approximately 10 kb from the right telomere of chromosome VII was determined. The segment contains the MAL1 locus, one of the five unlinked loci sufficient for maltose utilization. Until now, each of these loci was considered to contain three genes (for regula
