Expression of GUT1, which encodes glycerol kinase in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, is controlled by the positive regulators Adr1p, Ino2p and Ino4p and the negative regulator Opi1p in a carbon source-dependent fashion

Abstract: In Saccharomyces cerevisiae glycerol utilization is mediated by two enzymes, glycerol kinase (Gut1p) and mitochondrial glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (Gut2p). The carbon source regulation of GUT1 was studied using promoter-reporter gene fusions. The promoter activity was lowest during growth on glucose and highest on the non-fermentable carbon sources, glycerol, ethanol, lactate, acetate and oleic acid. Mutational analysis of the GUT1 promoter region showed that two upstream activation sequences, UAS(INO) … Show more

“…Several genes involved in fatty acid and sterol biosynthesis as well as inositol transport have been reported as containing putative UAS INO elements in their promoters (Greenberg and Lopes, 1996). Functional analyses of many of these genes confirm a role for Ino2p and/or UAS INO in their activation (Chirala et al, 1994;Koipally et al, 1996;Grauslund et al, 1999). Our microarray analysis of p180-expressing strains revealed several upregulated genes whose promoters contain known of putative UAS INO elements including INO1, GUT1, and SCS3 (unpublished results).…”

“…This novel regulatory route is postulated to proceed through the binding of Adr1p to the PIP2 promoter at a deviant UAS1. UAS1 PIP2 is only the second example, after UAS1 GUT1 (38), of a tandem array of UAS1 half-sites capable of binding Adr1p in vitro. Consistent with Adr1p binding to the PIP2 promoter, the respective levels of PIP2 transcript, gene product, and in vitro binding potential to OREs were found to be reduced in the adr1⌬ mutant compared with the situation in wild-type cells grown under oleic acid medium conditions.…”

“…1A). The nucleotide sequence of UAS1 PIP2 resembles that in the promoter of the GUT1 gene (37), which similarly consists of two single Adr1p-binding half-sites ordered as a tandem repeat (38). To examine whether UAS1 PIP2 could interact with Adr1p, EMSAs were performed on a fragment representing this promoter element as well as on the analogous sequence in the CTA1 promoter, UAS1 CTA1 .…”

“…Both genes are regulated by INO2 and INO4, genes encoding transcription factors that are responsive to inositol signaling (56). Growth on glycerol is ADR1-dependent (6), presumably because of the dependence of GUT1 and GUT2 expression on ADR1 (5,6). In the DNA array experiments (Fig.…”

“…The genes of ␤-oxidation that are ADR1-dependent are also regulated by oleate induction through the transcription factor Oaf1⅐Pip2 (8,9). GUT1 is regulated by Ino2 and Ino4 as well as by Adr1 (5). Thus, Adr1 acts in concert with at least three other transcription factors.…”
