(A) Schematic representation of the
electrophoretic karyotypes from 3153A and CAF4–2 showing the positions
of the SOU1 gene (▴ and ▾).
Orthogonal-field-alternation gel electrophoresis separation of
chromosomes of two typical representative sequential series of strains
derived from the parental strains (B) 3153A and
(C) CAF4–2. Orthogonal-field-alternation gel
electrophoresis. Lanes: 1, 3153A (Sou−); 2, Sor55
(Sou+); 3, Sor55–1 (Sou−); 4, Sor55–1-1
(Sou+); 5, CAF4–2 (Sou−); 6, Sor19
(Sou+); 7, Sor19–1 (Sou−); 8, Sor19–1-1
(Sou+). Conditions of separation in these two
representative gels were selected for the best resolution of either the
smallest or the smallest and middle-sized groups of chromosomes (21).
The gels showing precise separations of the other chromosomes of these
strains are not presented. (D) Schematic representation of
chromosomes III from the Sou+ and Sou− strains
serially derived from 3153A and CAF4–2 showing the hypothetical
negative regulator CSU1 gene (•).
