[i] The nucleotide distance between each NORF and its nearest upstream gene was calculated. The pairwise correlation coefficient of expression of each NORF with its nearest upstream gene was computed. The possible functional classification of each NORF on the basis of the expression profile is also listed. NORFs with an asterisk (*) are conserved in other hemiascomycetes yeast species (Blandin et al. 2000).

[ii] NJL020C is conserved in Saccharomyces kluyveri(Cliften et al. 2001).

[iii] YOL077W-A was discovered by the biochemical purification of the F1F0-ATP synthase complex (Arnold et al. 1998).

[iv] NORFs are detected by mass spectrometric analysis.

[v] Potential functional classifications: a: 26S proteosome, b: chromatin, c: enzyme, d: glutamate metabolism, e: hydrogen transporting, f: mitochondrion, g: nucleolus/transcription, h: organelle organization, i: ribonucleoside diphosphate, j: ribosome, and k: sterol metabolism.
