DNA sequencing and analysis of a 67.4 kb region from the right arm of Schizosaccharomyces pombe chromosome II reveals 28 open reading frames including the genes his5, pol5, ppa2, rip1, rpb8 and skb1.

67 393 bp of contiguous DNA located between markers cdc18 and cdc14 on the right arm of fission yeast chromosome II has been sequenced as part of the European Union Schizosaccharomyces pombe genome sequencing project. The complete sequence, contained in cosmid clones c15C4 and c21H7, has been determined on both strands. Sequence analysis shows that it contains 28 open reading frames capable of coding for proteins, 16 split by one or more introns, but no tRNA, rRNA or transposon sequences. The gene density is one per 2. 4 kb. Six genes have been previously described (his5, pol5, ppa2, rip1, rpb8 and skb1) and 22 are novel. Of the novel genes, 14 have significant similarity with proteins of known function, three have similarities with proteins of unknown function and five show no extensive similarities with known proteins. Sequence similarities suggest that three of the novel genes encode ATP-dependent RNA helicases, two encode transcription factor components and others encode a G-protein, a dehydrogenase, a Rab escort protein, an Abc1-like protein, a lipase, an ATP-binding transport protein, an amino acid permease, an acid phosphatase and a mannosyltransferase.[1]
