The respiratory system of Kluyveromyces lactis escapes from HAP2 control

Gene. 1995 Jan 11;152(1):113-5. doi: 10.1016/0378-1119(94)00684-k.

Abstract

A functional homolog of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae HAP2 gene, coding for one element of a transcriptional activator complex, was cloned from the yeast Kluyveromyces lactis and its nucleotide sequence was determined. Inactivation of the gene had no significant effect on respiration-dependent growth, suggesting that the HAP2/3/4 complex has no major control over the formation of the mitochondrial respiratory system in K. lactis.
