  • Location refers to SGD nucleotide coordinates. smORFs with an asterisk correspond to smORFs identified by Olivas and Parker (1997). Amino acid lengths followed by a pound sign indicate that a frame shift or an RNA splice is required to create the reading frame in the current annotation of the S. cerevisiae sequence. Species encoding sequences similar to the smORFs are listed (S. pombe accession no. T37750, protein information resource; C. elegans accession no. AAF59588.1, GenBank. A (+) refers to smORFs that are conserved in other hemiascomycetes yeast species (Blandin et al. 2000).
