Abstract
The nucleotide sequence of the 948,061 base pairs of chromosome XVI has been determined, completing the sequence of the yeast genome. Chromosome XVI was the last yeast chromosome identified, and some of the genes mapped early to it, such as GAL4, PEP4 and RAD1 (ref. 2) have played important roles in the development of yeast biology. The architecture of this final chromosome seems to be typical of the large yeast chromosomes, and shows large duplications with other yeast chromosomes. Chromosome XVI contains 487 potential protein-encoding genes, 17 tRNA genes and two small nuclear RNA genes; 27% of the genes have significant similarities to human gene products, and 48% are new and of unknown biological function. Systematic efforts to explore gene function have begun.

Abstract
The complete DNA sequence of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae chromosome IV has been determined. Apart from chromosome XII, which contains the 1-2 Mb rDNA cluster, chromosome IV is the longest S. cerevisiae chromosome. It was split into three parts, which were sequenced by a consortium from the European Community, the Sanger Centre, and groups from St Louis and Stanford in the United States. The sequence of 1,531,974 base pairs contains 796 predicted or known genes, 318 (39.9%) of which have been previously identified. Of the 478 new genes, 225 (28.3%) are homologous to previously identified genes and 253 (32%) have unknown functions or correspond to spurious open reading frames (ORFs). On average there is one gene approximately every two kilobases. Superimposed on alternating regional variations in G+C composition, there is a large central domain with a lower G+C content that contains all the yeast transposon (Ty) elements and most of the tRNA genes. Chromosome IV shares with chromosomes II, V, XII, XIII and XV some long clustered duplications which partly explain its origin.

Abstract
In 1992 we started assembling an ordered library of cosmid clones from chromosome XIV of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. At that time, only 49 genes were known to be located on this chromosome and we estimated that 80% to 90% of its genes were yet to be discovered. In 1993, a team of 20 European laboratories began the systematic sequence analysis of chromosome XIV. The completed and intensively checked final sequence of 784,328 base pairs was released in April, 1996. Substantial parts had been published before or had previously been made available on request. The sequence contained 419 known or presumptive protein-coding genes, including two pseudogenes and three retrotransposons, 14 tRNA genes, and three small nuclear RNA genes. For 116 (30%) protein-coding sequences, one or more structural homologues were identified elsewhere in the yeast genome. Half of them belong to duplicated groups of 6-14 loosely linked genes, in most cases with conserved gene order and orientation (relaxed interchromosomal synteny). We have considered the possible evolutionary origins of this unexpected feature of yeast genome organization.

Abstract
We have sequenced and analysed a 55786 bp fragment located on the left arm of chromosome XVI of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The sequence contains 29 non-overlapping open reading frames (ORFs) longer than 300 bp, among which 12 genes have previously been sequenced: OYE3, REV3, SVS1, BEM4, CDC60, KIP2, PEP4, SPK1, PAL1, KES1, SNR17B and RPL37A. Three new ORFs, P2591, P2594 and P2597 are highly homologous to the human phosphotyrosyl phosphatase activator PTPA, to the pleiotropic regulator PRL1 of PP1 and PP2a protein phosphatases in plants and to the protein kinase PAR-1 in Caenorhabditis elegans, respectively. Three other ORFs, P2545, P2567 and P2578 have significant homology with ORFs of unknown function located on yeast chromosomes VIII, XVI and IV respectively.

Abstract
The complete nucleotide sequence of Saccharomyces cerevisiae chromosome X (745 442 bp) reveals a total of 379 open reading frames (ORFs), the coding region covering approximately 75% of the entire sequence. One hundred and eighteen ORFs (31%) correspond to genes previously identified in S. cerevisiae. All other ORFs represent novel putative yeast genes, whose function will have to be determined experimentally. However, 57 of the latter subset (another 15% of the total) encode proteins that show significant analogy to proteins of known function from yeast or other organisms. The remaining ORFs, exhibiting no significant similarity to any known sequence, amount to 54% of the total. General features of chromosome X are also reported, with emphasis on the nucleotide frequency distribution in the environment of the ATG and stop codons, the possible coding capacity of at least some of the small ORFs (<100 codons) and the significance of 46 non-canonical or unpaired nucleotides in the stems of some of the 24 tRNA genes recognized on this chromosome.

Abstract
We report the nucleotide sequence of a 32.8 kb DNA segment from the right arm of Saccharomyces cerevisiae chromosome IV. The sequence contains 20 open reading frames (ORFs) longer than 300 bp as well as the 240 bp gene coding for the essential SSS1 secretory protein. Nine ORFs previously totally or partially sequenced (TPS2, PPH3, RAD55, SED1, PDC2, AFR1, SSS1, SLU7 and D4478) are presented, as well as the transmembrane protein D4405, the leucine zipper containing D4495 and a new tRNA for arginine. D4456 and D4461 are separated by a single in-frame stop codon only. The other five ORFs show no particular features or significant homology.

Abstract
The nucleotide sequence of two adjacent ClaI fragments from the left arm of Saccharomyces cerevisiae chromosome XIV has been determined. Analysis of the 13,520 bp DNA segment reveals nine open reading frames (ORFs) longer than 300 bp. N1302 contains the consensus sequence for a phosphate-binding loop common to ATP- and GTP-binding proteins and a strictly conserved 'SRC' sequence of unknown function present in all accessory proteins of replicative polymerases. N1306 shares homologies with serine/threonine phosphatases. N1310 encodes RAP1 (TUF or SBF-E), a transcription regulator. N1330 is the MER1 gene required for chromosome pairing and genetic recombination. Two ORFs show no homology with proteins in the databases and no particular features. N1311 is not likely to be expressed as it is located on the complementary strand of N1310.

Abstract
We report the amino acid sequence of 13 open reading frames (ORF > 299 bp) located on a 21.7 kb DNA segment from the left arm of chromosome XIV of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Five open reading frames had been entirely or partially sequenced previously: WHI3, GCR2, SPX19, SPX18 and a heat shock gene similar to SSB1. The products of 8 other ORFs are new putative proteins among which N1394 is probably a membrane protein. N1346 contains a leucine zipper pattern and the corresponding ORF presents an HAP (global regulator of respiratory genes) upstream activating sequence in the promoting region. N1386 shares homologies with the DNA structure-specific recognition protein family SSRPs and the corresponding ORF is preceded by an MCB (MluI cell cycle box) upstream activating factor.

Abstract
A 36 kb fragment from the left arm of chromosome X, located at about 50 kb from the telomere, was sequenced and analysed. The segment contains a new putative ARS, a new tRNA for threonine, remnants of a solo delta and 24 open reading frames (ORFs) numbered from J0310 to J0355. Six of them, NUC1, PRP21 (also called SPP91), CDC6, CRY2, the gene encoding the ribosomal protein S24 and the gene coding for a hypothetical protein of 599 amino acids, have been sequenced previously. Three ORFs show high homology to the yeast gene ACO1 encoding mitochondrial aconitase and to the chromosome III genes YCR34W and YCR37C of unknown function. Three other ORFs show lower but significant homology: a first one to UNP, a gene related to the tre-2 oncogene from mouse and to the gene coding for the yeast deubiquitinating enzyme DOA2; a second one to SLY41, a suppressor of the functional loss of YPT1 and a third one to the gene encoding the proline utilization activator PUT3.

Abstract
In yeast, revertants were selected from four respiratory deficient mutants carrying mutations in the cytochrome c oxidase subunit I gene. Intragenic second site mutations revealed amino acids which are functionally complementary to the original mutated position and may be in topological interaction with it. The results provide additional data in favour of the model proposed for the structure of the binuclear centre in proton-motive oxidases.
