Abstract excerpt
In Saccharomyces cerevisiae the only known role of the CBP2 gene is the excision of the fifth intron of the mitochondrial cyt b gene (bI5). We have cloned the CBP2 gene from Saccharomyces douglasii (a close relative of S. cerevisiae). A comparison of the S. douglasii and S. cerevisiae sequences s...
