Discussion Discussion
- Rds2 is not required for expression of HXT9 and HXT11 in
glucose
- Rds2 regulator acts as positive regulator of both HXT9
and HXT11 genes in ethanol.
- This agrees well with increased binding of Rds2 regulator
at these HXT promoters in ethanol (Soontorngun et. at, 2007)
- The expression of HXT9 and HXT11 genes are required to
transport glucose into cells
