Abstract excerpt
We describe methods for the genetic analysis of a DNA-protein interaction from any species. The DNA-binding domain of the protein of interest is expressed in yeast cells as a fusion with a known transcriptional activation domain, and the target binding site is used as an artificial upstream activation sequence (UAS) in an engineered promoter driving expression of a reporter gene, such as beta-galactosidase....
