Abstract excerpt
The TRK2 gene in Saccharomyces cerevisiae encodes a membrane protein involved in potassium transport and is expressed at extremely low levels. Dominant cis-acting mutations (TRK2D), selected by their ability to confer TRK2-dependent growth on low-potassium medium, identified an upstream repressor...
