Function
[UPC2_YEAST] Transcription factor that is involved in activation of anaerobic genes such as DAN/TIR cell wall mannoprotein genes and YML083c. Appears to bind to anaerobic response elements (AR1) with the consensus sequence 5'-TCGTTYAG-3' present in the promoter regions of DAN/TIR genes. Involved in sterol uptake and regulation of the sterol biosynthesis. Binds to sterol regulatory elements (SRE) with the consensus sequence 5'-TCGTATA-3' present in ERG2 and ERG3 promoters. May be involved in down-regulation of CWP2 during anaerobic adaptation.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5]
