Notes: The Rag4 Glucose Sensor Is Involved in the Hypoxic Induction of KlPDC1 Gene Expression in the Yeast Kluyveromyces lactis

摘要

Kluyveromyces lactis is a yeast which cannot grow under strict anaerobiosis. To date, no factors responsible for oxygen sensing and oxygen-dependent regulation of metabolism have been identified. In this paper we present the identification of the glucose sensor Rag4 as a factor essential for oxygen-dependent regulation of the fermentative pathway.
