Abstract
Adding glucose to Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells growing among nonferm entable carbon sources leads to glucose repression. This process may b e resolved into several steps. An early repression response requires a ny one of the three glucose kinases present in S. cerevisiae (HXK1, HX K2, or GLK1). A late response is only achieved when Hxk2p is present.
