The histidine-specific permease gene (HIP1) ofSaccharomyces cerevisiaehas been mapped, cloned, and sequenced. TheHIP1gene maps to the right arm of chromosome VII, approx. 11 cM distal to theADE3gene. The gene was isolated as an 8.6-kbBamHIW-Sau3A fragment by complementation of the histidine-specific permease deficiency in recipient yeast cells. We sequenced a 2.4-kb subfragment of thisBamHI-Sau3A fragment containing theHIP1gene and identified a 1596-bp open reading frame (ORF). We confirmed the assignment of the 1596-bp ORF as theHIP1coding sequence by sequencing ahiplnonsense mutation. Analysis of the amino acid (aa) sequence of theHIP1gene reveals several hydrophobic stretches, but shows no obvious N-terminal signal peptide. We have constructed a deletion of theHIP1gene in vitro and replaced the wild-type copy of the gene with this deletion. Thehipldeletion mutant can grow when it is supplemented with 30 mM histidine, 50 times the amount required for the growth ofHIP1cells. Revertants of this deletion mutant able to grow on a normal level of histidine arise by mutation in unlinked genes. Both these observations suggest that there are additional, low-affinity pathways for histidine uptake.
