| - | [[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/GAL4_YEAST GAL4_YEAST]] This protein is a positive regulator for the gene expression of the galactose-induced genes such as GAL1, GAL2, GAL7, GAL10, and MEL1 which code for the enzymes used to convert galactose to glucose. It recognizes a 17 base pair sequence in (5'-CGGRNNRCYNYNCNCCG-3') the upstream activating sequence (UAS-G) of these genes. | + | [[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/GAL4_YEAST GAL4_YEAST]] This protein is a positive regulator for the gene expression of the galactose-induced genes such as GAL1, GAL2, GAL7, GAL10, and MEL1 which code for the enzymes used to convert galactose to glucose. It recognizes a 17 base pair sequence in (5'-CGGRNNRCYNYNCNCCG-3') the upstream activating sequence (UAS-G) of these genes. This sequence is correctly shown on the structure as the sequence (5'-CGGAGGACTGCCCTCCG-3'). GAL4 interacts with both stands of DNA as shown with all of the base pairs within 5 angstroms of the protein and due to the double helix grooves. |
