We report here the sequence of a 19,482 bp DNA segment of chromosome II of Saccharomyces cerevisiae . The fragment contains 16 open reading frames (ORFs) covering 74% of the sequence. Four predicted products present homology with known proteins. The ORF YBR1732 exhibits a strong homology to serine hydroxymethyl transferase; the best score is 53·1% identity in 458 amino acids overlap with the serine hydroxymethyl transferase from rabbit liver. YBR1724, which shows homology with riboflavin synthase of Bacillus subtilis , is probably the RIB5 gene implied in riboflavine synthesis and mapped in this region. YBR1733 is homologous to rab protein and YBR1728 is presumably a GTPase activating protein.
