Abstract excerpt
The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a facultative aerobe that responds to changes in oxygen tension by changing patterns of gene expression. One set of genes that responds to this environmental cue is the hypoxic genes. Oxygen levels are sensed by changes in heme biosynthesis, which controls th...
