Known a gene sequence to find it's homology to yeast gene

Question

[newbiebio]

Known one gene sequence, how to find if it's homology to any yeast gene? I used blast and under 'choose search set", there is organism, I chose yeast. Is that a right way? And What database should I choose?

There are some yeast databases, for example:

http://www.yeastgenome.org/

For budding yeasts:

Thank you so much natasha. Actually, the gene is a lncRNA.
