Abstract excerpt
The Hpr1 protein has an unknown function, although it contains a region of homology to DNA topoisomerase I. We have found that hpr1 null mutants are defective in the transcription of many physiologically unrelated genes, including GAL1, HO, ADH1, and SUC2, by using a combination of Northern (RNA) blot analysis, primer extension, and upstream activation sequence-lacZ fusions. Many of the genes positively regulated...
