Abstract excerpt
In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, hexose uptake is mediated by HXT proteins which belong to a superfamily of monosaccharide facilitators. We have identified three more genes that encode hexose transporters (HXT5, 6, 7). Genes HXT6 and HXT7 are almost identical and located in tandem 3' adjacent to HXT3 on chromosome IV. We have constructed a set of congenic strains expressing none or any one of the seven known HXT...
