Abstract excerpt
The Saccharomyces cerevisiae GAL/MEL regulon genes are normally induced within minutes of galactose addition, but gal3 mutants exhibit a 3-5-day induction lag. We have discovered that this long-term adaptation (LTA) phenotype conferred by gal3 is complemented by multiple copies of the GAL1 gene. Based on this result and the striking similarity between the GAL3 and GAL1 protein sequences we attempted to detect...
