Abstract: The complete nucleotide sequence of Saccharomyces cerevisiae chromosome X (745 442 bp)
reveals a total of 379 open reading frames (ORFs), the coding region
covering approximately 75\\\% of the entire sequence. One hundred and
eighteen ORFs (31\\\%) correspond to genes previously identified in S.
cerevisiae. All other ORFs represent novel putative yeast genes, whose
function will have to be determined experimentally. However, 57 of the
latter subset (another 15\\\% of the total) encode proteins that show
significant analogy to proteins of known function from yeast or other
organisms. The remaining ORFs, exhibiting no significant similarity to any
known sequence, amount to 54\\\% of the total. General features of
chromosome X are also reported, with emphasis on the nucleotide frequency
distribution in the environment of the ATG and stop codons, the possible
coding capacity of at least some of the small ORFs (<100 codons) and
the significance of 46 non-canonical or unpaired nucleotides in the
stems of some of the 24 tRNA genes recognized on this chromosome.
