"The activity of the native TRX2 promoter, which is regulated by the transcription factor Yap1p, can be altered by sensing NADPH/NADP+ ratios, but its sensitivity is low. Increasing the number of the UAS-containing Yap1p binding sites greatly enhanced the cascade response effect, and this novel biosensor was useful at selecting cell populations with higher NADPH/NADP+ ratios [139]."[1]

"Saccharomyces cerevisiae contains eight members of a novel and fungus-specific family of bZIP proteins that is defined by four atypical residues on the DNA-binding surface. Two of these proteins, Yap1 and Yap2, are transcriptional activators involved in pleiotropic drug resistance. Although initially described as AP-1 factors, at least four Yap proteins bind most efficiently to TTACTAA, a sequence that differs at position ±2 from the optimal AP-1 site (TGACTCA); further, a Yap-like derivative of the AP-1 factor Gcn4 (A239Q S242F) binds efficiently to the Yap recognition sequence."[2]

Consensus sequences

The upstream activating sequence (UAS) for Yap1p/2p is TTACTAA, which is found in genes GSH1, TRX2, YCF1, GLR1, induced by oxidative stress such as H2O2, for regulation of genes expressed in response to environmental changes.[1]

Yap samplings

Copying TTACTAA in "⌘F" yields none between ZSCAN22 and A1BG and none between ZNF497 and A1BG as can be found by the computer programs.

For the Basic programs testing consensus sequence TTACTAA (starting with SuccessablesYap.bas) written to compare nucleotide sequences with the sequences on either the template strand (-), or coding strand (+), of the DNA, in the negative direction (-), or the positive direction (+), the programs are, are looking for, and found:

  1. negative strand, negative direction, looking for TTACTAA, 0.
  2. positive strand, negative direction, looking for TTACTAA, 1, TTACTAA at 3472.
  3. positive strand, positive direction, looking for TTACTAA, 0.
  4. negative strand, positive direction, looking for TTACTAA, 0.
  5. complement, negative strand, negative direction, looking for AATGATT, 1, AATGATT at 3472.
  6. complement, positive strand, negative direction, looking for AATGATT, 0.
  7. complement, positive strand, positive direction, looking for AATGATT, 0.
  8. complement, negative strand, positive direction, looking for AATGATT, 0.
  9. inverse complement, negative strand, negative direction, looking for TTAGTAA, 0.
  10. inverse complement, positive strand, negative direction, looking for TTAGTAA, 0.
  11. inverse complement, positive strand, positive direction, looking for TTAGTAA, 0.
