Characterization of Hex2 protein, a negative regulatory element necessary for glucose repression in yeast.

European journal of biochemistry - 1 Sept 1991

Niederacher D, Entian K D

Abstract excerpt

The regulatory HEX2 gene plays an important role in glucose repression in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The hex2 mutants have pleiotropic defects in the regulation of glucose-repressible enzymes, hexokinase PII synthesis and maltose uptake [Entian, K.-D. & Zimmermann, F.K. (1980) Mol. Gen. Genet. 177, 345-350]. The HEX2 gene encodes a protein of 114137 Da, deduced from its DNA sequence. There were no strong...
