Abstract excerpt
Peroxisomes are induced in Saccharomyces cerevisiae when this yeast is grown in the presence of oleate, and are repressed when glucose is supplied as the carbon source. Concomitant with this is an induction/repression of peroxisomal beta-oxidation enzymes. We are investigating the transcriptional control of acyl-CoA oxidase, the first and rate-limiting enzyme in the peroxisomal beta-oxidation cycle. The promoter...
