GLT1 promoter sequence. Putative Gcn4p
(GCN4), Gln3p, and Gat1p binding sites (GATA),
CGGN15CCG palindrome, and poly(dA-dT) regions are boxed and
numbered starting from the most 5′. Two putative TATA boxes (TATA 1 and
TATA 2) as well as the two transcription initiation sites, at positions
+1 and +52, are indicated. The 714-bp fragment shown includes a 30-bp
sequence of the UGA3 coding region. BamHI and
SalI sites were added and used to clone this fragment into
the 2μm LEU2 lacZ vector YEp363, generating plasmid
pLOU1.
