TheCDC8gene, whose product is required for DNA replication inSaccharomyces cerevisiae, has been isolated on recombinant plasmids. The yeast vector YCp50 bearing the yeastARS1,CEN4, andURA3sequences, to provide for replication, stability, and selection, respectively, was used to prepare a recombinant plasmid pool containing the entire yeast genome. Plasmids capable of complementing the temperature-sensitivecdc8-1mutation were isolated by transformation of acdc8-1mutant and selection for clones able to grow at the nonpermissive temperature. The entire complementing activity is carried on a 0.75-kilobase fragment, as revealed by deletion mapping. This fragment lies 1 kilobase downstream from the well-characterizedsup4gene, a gene known to be genetically linked toCDC8, thus confirming that the cloned gene corresponds to the chromosomalCDC8gene. Two additional recombinant plasmids that complement thecdc8-1mutation but that do not contain the 0.75-kilobase fragment or any flanking DNA were also identified in this study. These plasmids may contain genes that compensate for the lack ofCDC8gene product.
