Abstract excerpt
In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Tup1, in association with Cyc8 (Ssn6), functions as a general transcriptional corepressor. This repression is mediated by recruitment of the Tup1-Cyc8 complex to target promoters through sequence-specific DNA-binding proteins such as Sko1, which mediates the HOG pathway-dependent regulation. We identified tup1 and cyc8 mutant alleles as the suppressor of osmo-sensitivity of...
