Abstract excerpt
Trehalose (Tre) and glycogen (Glg) are synthesized in response to unfavorable growth conditions from glycolytic intermediates in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Transcription of the glycolytic genes is activated by the Gcr1p complex, the DNA binding transcription factor that directly associates with the CT-box sequences on the promoter region of the glycolytic genes. gcr1 mutant yeast cells cannot utilize glucose...
