C. Prior et al., LOW-AFFINITY GLUCOSE CARRIER GENE LGT1 OF SACCHAROMYCES-CEREVISIAE, AHOMOLOG OF THE KLUYVEROMYCES-LACTIS RAG1 GENE, Yeast, 9(12), 1993, pp. 1373-1377
A low-affinity glucose transporter gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae wa
s cloned by complementation of the rag1 mutation in a strain of Kluyve
romyces lactis defective in low-affinity glucose transport. Gene seque
nce and effects of null mutation in S. cerevisiae were described. Data
indicated that there are multiple genes for low-affinity glucose tran
sport.
