Chromosomes of two closely related yeast strains, the amylolyticSaccharomyces diastaticusand the non-amylolyticSaccharomyces cerevisiae, were resolved by pulsed field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) and orthological field alteration gel electrophoresis (OFAGE). Electrophoretic karyotypes of these two strains are identical. Sixteen clonedSaccharomycesgenes of known chromosomal location were used to identify individual chromosomes by Southern hybridization analyses. The Southern blots were reprobed with a cloned fragment of theSTA2glucoamylase gene ofS. diastaticus.STA2 exhibits homology toSTA1 andSTA3 as well as the sporulation-specific glucoamylase (SGA) gene from bothSaccharomycesstrains. The three unlinked, homologous genes,STA1 (DEX2,MAL5),STA2 (DEX1) andSTA3 (DEX3) encoding the extracellular glucoamylase isozymes GAI, GAII and GAIII inS. diastaticuswere then assigned to chromosomes IV, II and XIV, respectively. The SGA gene, encoding an intracellular glucoamylase in bothS. diastaticusandS. cerevisiae, was assigned to chromosome IX. Electrophoretic mapping of the STA and SGA genes is at present the only way to localize these genes, since glucoamylase repressor gene(s) (STA10,INH1 and/orIST2) are present in most laboratory strains ofS. cerevisiaeand theSGAphenotype is only detectable during sporulation.
