Unravelling the transcriptional regulation of saccharomyces cerevisiae UGA genes: The dual role of transcription factor leu3
Yeast cells can use γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA), a non-protein amino acid, as a nitrogen source that is mainly imported by the permease Uga4 and catabolized by the enzymes GABA transaminase and succinate-semialdehyde dehydrogenase, encoded by the UGA1 and UGA2 genes, respectively. The three UGA genes...
