A 20·5 kb DNA fragment from the left arm of chromosome XI of Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been sequenced and analysed. Thirteen open reading frames (ORFs) for proteins longer than 100 amino acids were discovered. Among them, two are the known genes MRP49 and TPK3 ; two others encode proteins which show strong similarity with a yeast putative protein kinase and a yeast choline transport protein; one other shows weaker similarity with a yeast Ca 2+ /calmodulin‐dependent protein kinase. Moreover, two putative proteins encoded by ORFs located in the sequenced fragment are closely similar to non‐yeast proteins: the Caenorhabditis elegans elongation factor 2 and a glutamic acid‐rich protein of Plasmodium falciparum . The sequence has been deposited in the EMBL data library under Accession Number Z26878.
