Abstract excerpt
Yap1 is a transcription factor that responds to oxidative stress in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The activity of Yap1 is regulated at the level of its intracellular localization, and a cysteine-rich domain at the C terminus of Yap1 is involved in this regulation. We investigated the effects of redox-regulatory proteins, thioredoxin and glutaredoxin, on the regulation of Yap1, using the deficient mutants of these...
