| Abstract | TSD2, a gene necessary for DNA synthesis in Ustilago maydis, was cloned by complementation of the temperature sensitive growth defect of a mutant known previously as pol1-1 and renamed here tsd2-1. Linkage analysis established that the cloned fragment contained an allele of tsd2-1 and not a suppressor. DNA sequence determination of the cloned DNA fragment indicated the presence of a single large uninterrupted open reading frame capable of encoding a protein of 845 amino acids without homology to any known gene involved in DNA synthesis. TSD2 was found to be cell cycle-regulated and mRNA levels peaked in early S or G1 phase. |
