High impact information on GRE2

  • However, the two other yeast CRE-binding proteins, Aca1p and Aca2p, are not involved in regulation of the GRE2 promoter under osmotic stress [1].
  • We sought to improve the performance of baker's yeast for beta-keto ester reductions by using recombinant DNA techniques to alter the levels of three enzymes known to play important roles in these reactions (fatty acid synthase, Fasp; aldo-keto reductase, Ypr1p; alpha-acetoxy ketone reductase, Gre2p) [2].
  • We show that methylglyoxal reductase (NADPH-dependent) is encoded by GRE2 (YOL151w) [3].
  • The three of them are under the control of the HOG pathway, even though GRE1 and GRE2 promoter regions do not present the consensus core STRE sequence [4].
