Abstract excerpt

The SCS3 gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae was cloned by functional complementation, using a conditional mutant exhibiting myo-inositol auxotrophy in the presence of choline, and sequenced. The sequence contained an open reading frame capable of encoding 380 amino acids with a calculated molecular...
