FIG. 3.

Sequence of the rpb6 gene from the temperature-sensitive rpb6 mutants. The rpb6 gene was PCR amplified from total DNA of the 14 temperature-sensitive rpb6 mutants isolated in this study and sequenced. The positions of mutations are shown for the S. pombe (SCHP0) rpb6 gene together with those of all the known rpb6 homologues (SACER, S. cerevisiae; CAEEL, Caenorhabditis elegans; DROME, Drosophila melanogaster; HUMAN, Homo sapiens; METTH, Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum; ASFM2, African swine fever virus gene 2). The sequences conserved among the rpb6 homologues of these seven species are shaded.
