Abstract excerpt
The induction of transcription of the galactose genes in yeast involves the galactose-dependent binding of ScGal3p (in Saccharomyces cerevisiae) or KlGal1p (in Kluyveromyces lactis) to Gal80p. This binding abrogates Gal80's inhibitory effect on the activation domain of Gal4p, which can then activate transcription. Here, we describe the isolation and characterization of new interaction mutants of K.lactis GAL1 and...
