TL;DR
The deduced amino acid sequence of 460 residues contains a potential nt-binding sequence and shows significant similarity to the preliminary sequence of RAD51.
Abstract
We have determined the nucleotide (nt) sequence of the RAD57 gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. RAD57 contains an open reading frame of 1380 bp. The deduced amino acid sequence of 460 residues contains a potential nt-binding sequence and shows significant similarity to the preliminary sequence of RAD51.

A new approach to rapid sequence comparison, basic local alignment search tool (BLAST), directly approximates alignments that optimize a measure of local similarity, the maximal segment pair (MSP) score.

A new method for determining nucleotide sequences in DNA is described, which makes use of the 2',3'-dideoxy and arabinon nucleoside analogues of the normal deoxynucleoside triphosphates, which act as specific chain-terminating inhibitors of DNA polymerase.
The EMBO JournalDistantly related sequences in the alpha‐ and beta‐subunits of ATP synthase, myosin, kinases and other ATP‐requiring enzymes and a common nucleotide binding fold.

Related sequences in both alpha and beta and in other enzymes that bind ATP or ADP in catalysis help to identify regions contributing to an adenine nucleotide binding fold in both ATP synthase subunits.
Mutation Research/Fundamental and Molecular Mechanisms of MutagenesisA genetic study of X-ray sensitive mutants in yeast
475 Citations1974John C. Game, Robert Mortimer
Examination of the survival responses of multiple-mutant strains indicated a minimum of two pathways in the repair of X-ray damage, and a number of the mutants have been mapped and these were found to be dispersed over the genome.
Proceedings of the National Academy of SciencesYeast TATA-binding protein TFIID binds to TATA elements with both consensus and nonconsensus DNA sequences.
295 Citations1989Steven Hahn, Stephen Buratowski +2 more
The existence of nonconsensus TATA elements does not itself indicate the existence of multiple TATA-binding factors, and TFIID was active in promoting transcription in vitro from the noncons consensus Tata elements.

The identification of a nucleotide‐binding site provides strong evidence that transport by periplasmic binding protein‐dependent systems is energized directly by the hydrolysis of ATP or a closely related nucleotide.
CellTranscription terminates in yeast distal to a control sequence
181 Citations1983Steven Henikoff, James D. Kelly +1 more
Investigation of transcription termination on a segment of Drosophila DNA that complements a yeast adenine-8 mutation indicates that this sequence is not required for polyadenylation, and similarities between termination in yeast and p-dependent termination in bacteria are suggested.

It is described that genes that control repair of ionizing-radiation damage are also required for normal meiosis, as well as meiotic and mitotic recombination in yeast, and the role of x-ray-sensitive mutants in current research in these areas is discussed.
