Abstract
We describe the isolation and sequencing of both cDNA and genomic clones encoding the mitochondrial ADP/ATP carrier (Anc) of Schizosaccharomyces pombe (Sp). The cDNA clone was isolated from a cDNA library of this fission yeast by complementation of a Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Sc) strain defective in adenine nucleotide carrier. The predicted amino acid (aa) sequence (322 aa) shared similarity with the known Anc sequences. It is more closely related to Neurospora crassa (Nc) Anc than to ScAnc1, 2, or 3 or Kluyveromyces lactis (Kl) Anc. Hybridization experiments with ordered libraries of Sp genomic DNA led to the physical mapping (chromosome II, NotI-B region) and the isolation of the Sp ANC1 gene. We also conclude that a single-copy gene encodes the Sp Anc.
