Comparative analysis of the region of the mitochondrial genome containing the ATPase subunit 9 gene in the two related yeast species Saccharomyces douglasii and Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

abstract：:The mitochondrial leucyl-tRNA synthetase (mLRS) of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is involved in both mitochondrial protein synthesis and pre-mRNA splicing. We have created mutations in the regions HIGH, GWD and KMSKS, which are involved in ATP-, amino acid- and tRNA-binding respectively, and which have been conserved in th...
