Other interactions of URA1

  • Its organization and regulation indicate that the S. pombe URA1 gene product appears very similar to the S. cerevisiae URA2 gene product [14].
  • No evidence of intracistronic complementation was found, and enzymatic analysis of leaky mutants did not reveal any mutations dissociating regulation of URA1 from that of URA3 [7].
  • The APN1 locus is located approximately 235 kb from the left telomere of chromosome XI, and shows weak (approximately 53 cM) genetic linkage to ura1 [15].
  • Identification of the known loci URA1, TRP3 and SAC1 revealed a translocation compared to the genetic map [12].
