The galactose analogue 2-deoxygalactose was found to inhibit the growth of a mutant strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae constitutively producing the set of galactose utilization enzymes. Based on this fact, the yeast GAL80 gene negatively regulating the expression of the genes encoding those enzymes

The MET25 gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae was cloned by functional complementation after transformation of a yeast met25 mutant. Subcloning of the DNA fragment bearing MET25 located the gene on a 2.3 kb region. The gene was formally identified by integration at the chromosomal MET25 locus. The clon
In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the genes ARO3 and ARO4 encode isoenzymes of 3-deoxy-D-arabino-heptulosonate-7-phosphate (DAHP) synthase. Both genes are derepressed seven-fold under the general control of amino acid biosynthesis. A previously isolated 1.7 kb fragment containing the ARO3 gene and the 5'
Candida pelliculosa var. acetaetherius is a strain of yeast which can utilize cellobiose as the carbon source. From a gene library prepared from this yeast, the beta-glucosidase gene has been cloned in a S. cerevisiae host using a chromogenic substrate, 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl-beta-glucoside as a
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
