Abstract excerpt
The CYS3 positive regulator is a basic region-leucine zipper (bZIP) DNA-binding protein that is essential for the expression of sulfur-controlled structural genes in Neurospora crassa. An approach of modifying the dimerization specificity of the CYS3 leucine zipper was used to determine whether t...
