Abstract excerpt
A genomic DNA fragment that complements a newly identified protein glycosylation-defective mutation, vig9, of Saccharomyces cerevisiae was cloned. Chromosomal integration of this fragment by homologous recombination indicated that it contains the wild type VIG9 gene. The nucleotide sequence was determined. A predicted gene product showed significant amino acid sequence homology with several bacterial enzymes that...
