Constitutive expression of the UGA4 gene in Saccharomyces cerevisiae depends on two positive-acting proteins, Uga3p and Uga35p
The first specific precursor of porphyrin biosynthesis is δ-aminolevulinic acid. δ-Aminolevulinic acid enters Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells through the γ-aminobutyric acid specific permease Uga4p. It was described that this permease is inducible by γ-aminobutyric acid and its regulation involves se...
