Expression studies of GUP1 and GUP2, genes involved in glycerol active transport in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, using semi-quantitative RT-PCR.

Abstract excerpt

Glycerol active uptake in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, characterised physiologically as a proton symport, was previously described as repressed by glucose, induced by growth on non-fermentable carbon sources and unresponsive to growth under salt stress. GUP1 and GUP2 were identified and characterised as genes involved in glycerol active uptake. Using semi-quantitative RT-PCR, GUP1 and GUP2 transcription was...
