Abstract excerpt
Strains of the yeast Pichia inositovora that carry the linear plasmids pPin1-1 (18 kb) and pPin1-3 (10 kb) display a killer activity towards Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Cloning and sequencing of the smaller plasmid, pPin1-3, revealed that it is 9683 bp long and has 154-bp terminal inverted repeats. Comparison of pPin1-3 with the only other completely sequenced killer plasmid, pGKL1 of Kluyveromyces lactis, revealed...
