1 Adr1 and Cat8 mediate coactivator recruitment and chromatin remodeling at glucose-regulated genes. Glucose DNA-binding transcription factor ADR1 Saccharomyces cerevisiae S288C
2 BACKGROUND: Adr1 and Cat8 co-regulate numerous glucose-repressed genes in S. cerevisiae, presenting a unique opportunity to explore their individual roles in coactivator recruitment, chromatin remodeling, and transcription. Glucose DNA-binding transcription factor ADR1 Saccharomyces cerevisiae S288C
3 METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: We determined the individual contributions of Cat8 and Adr1 on the expression of a cohort of glucose-repressed genes and found three broad categories: genes that need both activators for full derepression, genes that rely mostly on Cat8 and genes that require only Adr1. Glucose DNA-binding transcription factor ADR1 Saccharomyces cerevisiae S288C
4 METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: We determined the individual contributions of Cat8 and Adr1 on the expression of a cohort of glucose-repressed genes and found three broad categories: genes that need both activators for full derepression, genes that rely mostly on Cat8 and genes that require only Adr1. Glucose DNA-binding transcription factor ADR1 Saccharomyces cerevisiae S288C
5 CONCLUSIONS/SIGNIFICANCE: Thus, at many of the glucose-repressed genes, Cat8 and Adr1 appear to have interchangeable roles and promoter architecture may dictate the roles of these activators. Glucose DNA-binding transcription factor ADR1 Saccharomyces cerevisiae S288C
