RTG1 and RTG2: two yeast genes required for a novel path of communication from mitochondria to the nucleus.
Cell - 15 Jan 1993
Liao X, Butow R A
Abstract excerpt
The expression of some nuclear genes is sensitive to the functional state of mitochondria, a process we term retrograde regulation. Here we show that retrograde regulation of the yeast CIT2 gene encoding peroxisomal citrate synthase depends on a new class of upstream activation site element (UASr) and two previously unidentified genes, RTG1 and RTG2. RTG1 encodes a protein of 177 amino acids with similarity to...
