Abstract
We have isolated restriction fragments from a "shotgun" collection of Drosophila DNA which function as autonomously replicating sequences (ARS) in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and hybridize with telomeric regions of the 2L, 2R, 4, and X chromosomes. In an independently obtained set of D. melanogaster clones five fragments hybridize in situ with telomeres and a number of internal sites. Two of them also contain ARSs. A Drosophila mobile P-element also possesses ARS activity in yeast.
