Three target genes for the transcriptional activator Cat8p of Kluyveromyces lactis: acetyl coenzyme A synthetase genes KlACS1 and KlACS2 and lactate permease gene KlJEN1.

Abstract excerpt

The aerobic yeast Kluyveromyces lactis and the predominantly fermentative Saccharomyces cerevisiae share many of the genes encoding the enzymes of carbon and energy metabolism. The physiological features that distinguish the two yeasts appear to result essentially from different organization of regulatory circuits, in particular glucose repression and gluconeogenesis. We have isolated the KlCAT8 gene (a homologue...
