The DNA sequencing and preliminary functional analysis of a 32 kb section of yeast chromosome I has been completed. This region lies on the left arm of the chromosome between the LTE1 and SPO7 genes and contains 14 open reading frames (ORFs) positioned closely together, with an average spacing of approximately 350 nucleotides between coding regions. Three of these ORFs correspond to previously identified genes, a further three show significant homology with other proteins, while the remaining eight ORFs share no significant homology to genes in the databases.Key words: chromosome I, genome analysis, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, yeast.

Vibrio campbellii is an emerging aquaculture pathogen that causes luminous vibriosis in farmed shrimp. Although prophages in various aquaculture pathogens have been widely reported, there is still limited knowledge regarding prophages in the genome of pathogenic V. campbellii. Here, we describe the full-genome sequence of a prophage named HY01, induced from the emerging shrimp pathogen V. campbellii HY01. The phage HY01 was induced by mitomycin C and was morphologically characterized as long tailed phage. V. campbellii phage HY01 is composed of 41,772 bp of dsDNA with a G+C content of 47.45%. A total of 60 open reading frames (ORFs) were identified, of which 31 could be predicted for their biological functions. Twenty seven out of 31 predicted protein coding regions were matched with several encoded proteins of various Enterobacteriaceae, Pseudomonadaceae, Vibrionaceae, and other phages of Gram-negative bacteria. Interestingly, the comparative genome analysis revealed that the phage HY01 was only distantly related to Vibrio phage Va_PF430-3_p42 of fish pathogen V. anguillarum but differed in genomic size and gene organization. The phylogenetic tree placed the phage together with Siphoviridae family. Additionally, a survey of Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR) spacers revealed two matching sequences between phage HY01 genome and viral spacer sequence of Vibrio spp. The spacer results combined with the synteny results suggest that the evolution of V. campbellii phage HY01 is driven by the horizontal genetic exchange between bacterial families belonging to the class of Gammaproteobacteria.

Abstract The nib 1 allele of yeast confers a sensitivity to an endogenous plasmid, 2 mu DNA, in that nib 1 strains bearing 2 mu DNA (cir+) exhibit a reduction in division potential. In the present study, the reduction in division potential characteristic of nib 1 cir+ strains is shown to be dependent on the simultaneous presence of both the A and the D open reading frames of 2 mu DNA as well as on the presence of an unidentified extrachromosomal element other than 2 mu DNA. Furthermore, in nib 1 strains, an uncharacterized extrachromosomal element can cause a less severe reduction of division potential in the absence of intact 2 mu DNA. Thus, the nib 1 allele may confer a generalized sensitivity to extrachromosomal elements.

Ribosome-footprint profiling provides genome-wide snapshots of translation, but technical challenges can confound its analysis. Here, we use improved methods to obtain ribosome-footprint profiles and mRNA abundances that more faithfully reflect gene expression in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Our results support proposals that both the beginning of coding regions and codons matching rare tRNAs are more slowly translated. They also indicate that emergent polypeptides with as few as three basic residues within a 10-residue window tend to slow translation. With the improved mRNA measurements, the variation attributable to translational control in exponentially growing yeast was less than previously reported, and most of this variation could be predicted with a simple model that considered mRNA abundance, upstream open reading frames, cap-proximal structure and nucleotide composition, and lengths of the coding and 5′- untranslated regions. Collectively, our results reveal key features of translational control in yeast and provide a framework for executing and interpreting ribosome- profiling studies.

ABSTRACTBacillusspp. are ubiquitous Gram-positive microbes with many ecological and symbiotic interactions and can be pathogens. Phage Leo2 was found to infect aBacillus pumilusstrain isolated from soil. The sequence of phage Leo2 revealed 74 genes; 31% of the genes have associated functions, and 67% of coding regions are unidentified open reading frames.
