Promoter sequences regulated by the calcineurin-activated transcription factor Crz1 in the yeast ENA1 gene
Abstract
In Saccharomyces cerevisiae the transcription of the ENA1 gene is modulated by multiple transduction pathways that respond to osmotic, ionic and nutrient stresses. We have investigated the molecular mechanisms involved in ENA1 induction by the calcium-calcineurin-activated transcription factor Crzl/Tcn1. We found in the ENA1 promoter a calcium-responsive, Crzl-dependent upstream activating region (UASENA1) located between -713 bp and 826 bp relative to the translation start. This region contains two separate control elements: the upstream element (5'-GAATGGCTG-3') between -813 and -821 binds Crzlp with lower affinity and mostly contributes to basal ENA1 expression, whereas the downstream element (5'-GGGTGGCTG-3') between 727 and 719 binds Crz1p with higher affinity and is a major determinant of the induction response to calcium.

Crz1p binds to the CDRE sequence in FKS2 and ENA1 promoters and activates expression of calcineurin-responsive genes.
“To drive this transcriptional stress response, Crz1p binds to a cognate sequence called CDRE, already identified in FKS2 and ENA1 gene promoters, and activates the expression of calcineurin-responsive genes (Stathopoulos and Cyert 1997;Mendizabal et al. 2001).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
