Abstract excerpt
The expression of many nitrogen catabolic genes decreases to low levels when readily used nitrogen sources (e.g., asparagine and glutamine) are provided in the growth medium; this physiological response is termed nitrogen catabolite repression (NCR). Transcriptional activation of these genes is mediated by the cis-acting element UASNTR and the trans-acting factor Gln3p. A second protein encoded by URE2 possesses...
