The adenylyl cyclase-encoding gene from Saccharomyces kluyveri.

The gene encoding adenylyl cyclase (CYR) from Saccharomyces kluyveri has been cloned. Comparison of the predicted amino acid sequence of this protein with the Schizosaccharomyces pombe and Saccharomyces cerevisiae CYRs revealed homology between different structural and putative functional domains that suggest a high degree of conservation in the function and regulation of these proteins.
