An investigation of the transcriptional regulation of thiamin biosynthesis in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Baker's yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae can synthesise vitamin B1, thiamin, de nova. Exogenously supplied vitamin is, however, taken up very efficiently, leading to high intracellular levels of the enzyme cofactor thiamin diphosphate (ThDP) and subsequent repression of genes encoding the biosynt...
