Abstract
Genomic evidence for colocalization of functionally related genes on eukaryote chromosomes is mounting. Here we show that a statistically significant fraction of yeast genes coding for subunits of stable complexes are located within 10-30 kb of each other. Clustering of genes encoding subunits of complexes may ensure better coregulation and maintain the right stoichiometry of complexes upon duplication of chromosomal segments.
