The nuclear gene fromSaccharomyces cerevisiaethat encodes the major mitochondrial nuclease was cloned. Gene sequences were identified from a λgtll library by antibodies specific to the mitochondrial nuclease. DNA fror the phage recombinant was used to isolate the entire nuclease gene from a plasmid library. Yeast strains containing the nuclease gene on a multicopy plasmid vector overproduced mitochondrial nuclease 20–40 times relative to a wild-type strain. Strains containing a null allele of the nuclease gene lacked all traces of mitochondrial nuclease. Both cell types, however, were phenotypically wild-type indicating that the nuclease 1s not an essential enzyme for mitochondrial function. The locus encoding the mitochondrial nuclease is termedNUC1.
