Rap1p requires Gcr1p and Gcr2p homodimers to activate ribosomal protein and glycolytic genes, respectively.
Efficient transcription of ribosomal protein (RP) and glycolytic genes requires the Rap1p/Gcr1p regulatory complex. A third factor, Gcr2p, is required for only the glycolytic (specialized) mode of transcriptional activation. It is recruited to the complex by Gcr1p and likely mediates a change in the phosphorylation state and/or conformation of the latter. We show here that leucine zipper motifs...
متن کاملTranscription activation of yeast ribosomal protein genes requires additional elements apart from binding sites for Abf1p or Rap1p.
All ribosomal protein (rp) gene promoters from Saccharomyces cerevisiae studied so far contain either (usually two) binding sites for the global gene regulator Rap1p or one binding site for another global factor, Abf1p. Previous analysis of the rpS33 and rpL45 gene promoters suggested that apart from the Abf1 binding site, additional cis-acting elements play a part in transcription activation o...
متن کاملThe role of Gcr1p in the transcriptional activation of glycolytic genes in yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
To study the interdependence of Gcr1p and Rap1p, we prepared a series of synthetic regulatory sequences that contained various numbers and combinations of CT-boxes (Gcr1p-binding sites) and RPG-boxes (Rap1p-binding sites). The ability of the synthetic oligonucleotides to function as regulatory sequences was tested using an ENO1-lacZ reporter gene. As observed previously, synthetic oligonucleoti...
متن کاملThe global transcriptional activator of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Gcr1p, mediates the response to glucose by stimulating protein synthesis and CLN-dependent cell cycle progression.
Growth of Saccharomyces cerevisiae requires coordination of cell cycle events (e.g., new cell wall deposition) with constitutive functions like energy generation and duplication of protein mass. The latter processes are stimulated by the phosphoprotein Gcr1p, a transcriptional activator that operates through two different Rap1p-mediated mechanisms to boost expression of glycolytic and ribosomal...
متن کاملProtein kinase A and TORC1 activate genes for ribosomal biogenesis by inactivating repressors encoded by Dot6 and its homolog Tod6.
Genes required for ribosome biogenesis in yeast, referred to collectively as the Ribi regulon, are tightly regulated in coordination with nutrient availability and cellular growth rate. The promoters of a significant fraction of Ribi genes contain one or more copies of the RNA polymerases A and C (PAC) and/or ribosomal RNA-processing element (RRPE) motifs. Prompted by recent studies showing tha...
