We report here the sequence of the Kluyvercuyces lactis URA3 gene (orotidine-5-phoshate decarboxylase). The gene was isolated from a Sau3A K. lacuis genomic library by complementation of a pyrF::Tn5 mutation in E. cdi strain MNU (gift from Michael Hall). The isolated sequence was able to complement a ura3 mutation of K. lac*s as well as the ura3-52 mutation in S. cerevisiae. The K. lactis protein is 81 percent homologous to its S. cerevislae analog (1) and the DNA sequences are 71 percent homologous. These levels of homology and those of other K. lactis cloned genes (unpublished data) mark K. lacts as the yeast most related to the Sacdharomyces genus to date. The K. lactis protein is about 30 percent homologous to the analogous Neurosjra cassa PYR4 protein and the DNA sequences are about 24 percent homologus (2).
