Abstract

We describe the isolation and identification of the Schizosaccharomyces pombe dTMP kinase gene by the complementation of a Saccharomyces cerevisiae cell cycle mutant cell, cdc8. The isolated cDNA contains an open reading frame which can encode a protein with the molecular weight of 24,151. The deduced protein sequence is highly conserved among known dTMP kinase sequences from different organisms. The isolated gene should facilitate our study of its enzymatic activity, as well as nucleotide metabolism and cell cycle regulation in this organism.
