Abstract excerpt
The addition of glucose to derepressed cells of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae triggers activation of the cAMP pathway with a rapid drop in stress resistance as a consequence. We have isolated the LRE1 gene as a multicopy suppressor of glucose-induced loss of heat resistance. Overexpression of LRE1 in a wild-type strain causes the same phenotype as observed in strains with reduced activity of the cAMP-PKA...
