Revision of the nucleotide sequence at the last intron of the mitochondrial apocytochrome b gene in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Abstract

The nucleotide sequence around a G + C-rich cluster in the last intron of the mitochondrial apocytochrome b gene (F.G. Nóbrega and A. Tzagoloff, Journal of Biological Chemistry, 255: 9828-9837, 1980) was revised when restriction digests failed to show a predicted Rsa I site at position +2769. The corrected sequence has four additional nucleotides, one Hae III and two Hpa II sites. Previously undetected typographical errors were also found in the A + T-rich sequence.
