The location of the centromere of chromosome III (CEN3) of Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been altered by means of transformation. The frequency of meiotic crossing over in the CEN3-PGK1 and LEU2-CEN3 intervals increases approximately 1.5- and fourfold, respectively, when CEN3 is repositioned at HIS4. The centromere-distal HIS4-LEU2 region experiences a three- to fivefold decrease in the frequency of meiotic exchange when CEN3 is repositioned at HIS4. The inhibition of meiotic crossing over is conferred by a 627-base-pair fragment of CEN3 DNA and is not dependent on the orientation of CEN3 relative to the rest of chromosome III.
通过转化手段改变了酿酒酵母第三条染色体(CEN3)着丝粒的位置。当CEN3重新定位到HIS4时,CEN3 - PGK1和LEU2 - CEN3区间的减数分裂交换频率分别增加约1.5倍和四倍。当CEN3重新定位到HIS4时,着丝粒远端的HIS4 - LEU2区域减数分裂交换频率下降三到五倍。减数分裂交换的抑制作用由CEN3 DNA的一个627个碱基对的片段赋予,且不依赖于CEN3相对于第三条染色体其余部分的方向。
