Abstract

This paper reports the genomic analysis of the strain CBS7064 of Pichia sorbitophila, a homothallic diploid yeast. We sequenced 4829 random sequence tags of about 1 kb and compared them to the Saccharomyces cerevisiae gene products. Approximately 1300 nuclear genes, 22 tRNAs, the rDNA locus, and six mitochondrial genes have been identified. The analysis of the rDNA genes has permitted to classify this organism close to the Candida species. Accession numbers from AL414896 to AL419724 at EMBL databank.
