A complete nucleotide sequence of two ras-related yeast genes (c- rassc -1 and c- rassc -2) isolated from the yeast strain Saccharomyces cerevisiae is reported. They encode predicted polypeptides of 40,000 and 41,000 daltons, respectively. The N-terminal 170 amino acids from both genes show extensive amino acid homology to other ras genes from vertebrates, whereas their C-termini have diverged. These genes should be useful in the elucidation of a normal biological function of ras-related genes in a simple system like yeast.
报道了从酿酒酵母菌株中分离出的两个与ras相关的酵母基因(c-rassc-1和c-rassc-2)的完整核苷酸序列。它们分别编码预测分子量为40,000和41,000道尔顿的多肽。这两个基因的N端170个氨基酸与脊椎动物的其他ras基因显示出广泛的氨基酸同源性,而它们的C端则有所不同。这些基因将有助于在酵母这样的简单系统中阐明与ras相关基因的正常生物学功能。
