Abstract excerpt
Using a scheme for selecting mutants of Saccharomyces cerevisiae with abnormalities of iron metabolism, we have identified a gene, AFT1, that mediates the control of iron uptake. AFT1 encodes a 78 kDa protein with a highly basic amino terminal domain and a glutamine-rich C-terminal domain, reminiscent of transcriptional activators. The protein also contains an amino terminal and a C-terminal region with 10% His...
