generation agar is not necessary and transformant colonies appear significantly faster (2 ~4 days). In the course of efforts to develop new yeast host vector systems we have found that intact cells treated with only polyethylene glycol (PEG) can be transformed. In this paper we present evidence for this observation. The transformation procedure is principally based on the method reported by Ito et al.lt2) The Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains, AH22(a leu2-3 Ieu2-12 his4-519 canl), YNN27 (oc trpl ura3 gall) and D13-1A (a his3-532 trpl gall), were precultured overnight in 1 ml of YEPD(1.0% yeast extract, 2.0% polypepton, 2.0% glucose, pH 5.3). Twenty ml of YEPDcontaining 0.4ml of a precultured cell suspension was incubated at 30°C with shaking until cell growth reached the late log phase. Cells were then harvested by centrifugation at 1000xg for 5min and washed once with TE buffer (10mM Tris-HCl buffer, pH 7.5, containing 1mMEDTA).Then the cells were suspended at a concentration of 2 x 108 cells/ml in the same buffer. Five hundred ^1 of TE buffer containing 0.2m lithium acetate (lithium acetate method of Ito et al.u2)) or the same volume of TEbuffer alone (polyethylene glycol method) was then added to 500[A of the cell suspension. After 1hr incubation at 30°C with shaking, a 100}A
