Plasmid clone gapB and lambda phage clone 4682, which contain fragments of Saccharomyces cerevisiae chromosome VI, were analysed. A 23 kb sequence was determined and ten open reading frames (ORFs) were revealed. Among them, five ORFs were identical to five yeast genes (SEC4, MSH4, SPB4, DEGl and NIC

✦ Synopsis
We report the complete sequence of a 9.2 kb fragment next to and including the right telomere of Saccharomyces cerevisiae chromosome XIV. Four open reading frames (ORFs) longer than 100 amino acids were observed in the sequenced segment. One ORF (378 codons) does not show any significant homology with proteins in the databases and corresponds to a putative new gene. Two ORFs are almost identical to the known YCR007NKL219 and P A UI-like hypothetical protein families already identified on several S. cerevisiae chromosomes. These ORFs, whose function is unknown, are generally associated with sub-telomeric regions of chromosomes. The fourth one shows significant identities with bacterial mannitol dehydrogenases. It could be a yeast gene implicated in the metabolism of mannitol (or a related substrate). The sequence has been deposited in the EMBL data library under Accession Number X86790.
