Abstract
We report the complete sequence of a 9.2 kb fragment next to and including the right telomere of Saccharomyces cerevisiae chromosome XIV. Four open reading frames (ORFs) longer than 100 amino acids were observed in the sequenced segment. One ORF (378 codons) does not show any significant homology with proteins in the databases and corresponds to a putative new gene. Two ORFs are almost identical to the known YCR007/YKL219 and PAU1-like hypothetical protein families already identified on several S. cerevisiae chromosomes. These ORFs, whose function is unknown, are generally associated with sub-telomeric regions of chromosomes. The fourth one shows significant identities with bacterial mannitol dehydrogenases. It could be a yeast gene implicated in the metabolism of mannitol (or a related substrate). The sequence has been deposited in the EMBL data library under Accession Number X86790.
