Strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae bearing null alleles of the met15 gene are methionine auxotrophs and become darkly pigmented in the presence of Pb2+ ions (Ono et al. (1991). Appl. Env. Microbiol. 57, 3183-3186). We describe the cloning of a useful fragment of the MET15 locus which complements both the methionine requirement and the colony colour phenotype. This colony colour phenotype is very useful for...
