Chromosome location of a family of genes encoding different acidic ribosomal proteins in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

DNA probes from the genes encoding the acidic ribosomal proteins L44, L44' and L45, as well as from reporter genes for chromosomes IV, VII, XII and XV, have been hybridised to Southern blots of Saccharomyces cerevisiae DNA resolved by pulsed field gel electrophoresis. The protein L44' and protein L45 genes have been found to hybridise to chromosome IV, identified by the CAT1 gene probe, while the protein L44 probe hybridises with a band containing chromosomes VII and XV, identified by the ATPase 1 and HIS3 genes respectively.
