We describe the activities of a wide array of deletion mutants of GAL4, a yeast transcriptional activator. We identify two short regions of GAL4, each of which activates transcription when fused to the DNA-binding region of the molecule. Very large portions of GAL4 are not required for gene activation.
我们描述了酵母转录激活因子GAL4的一系列缺失突变体的活性。我们鉴定出GAL4的两个短区域,当它们与该分子的DNA结合区域融合时,每个区域都能激活转录。基因激活并不需要GAL4的很大一部分。
