Immunogen Sequence: GI # 6320413, sequence 339-808
Recombinant key transcriptional regulator of early meiotic genes, binds URS1 upstream regulatory sequence, couples metabolic responses to nutritional cues with initiation and progression of meiosis, forms complex with Ime1p, and also with Sin3p-Rp
Application
Anti-UME6 antibody produced in chicken is suitable for western blotting analysis at a dilution of 1:500, for tissue or cell staining at a dilution of 1:200.
Biochem/physiol Actions
UME6 gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is identified as a mitotic repressor of early meiosis-specific gene expression and encodes a Zn2Cys6 DNA-binding protein. It binds to URS1, a promoter element required for both mitotic repression and meiotic induction of early meiotic genes. UME6 is part of a developmental switch that controls both vegetative repression and meiotic induction of meiosis-specific genes. It plays an important role in spore germination and the first few mitotic cell divisions. UME6 gene also has both negative and positive roles in regulating phospholipid biosynthesis.

Ume6p is a nonessential transcription factor that represses meiotic gene expression during vegetative growth in budding yeast. To relieve this repression, Ume6p is destroyed as cells enter meiosis and is not resynthesized until spore wall assembly. The present study reveals
In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, regulation of the phospholipid biosynthetic genes, INO1, CHO1, CHO2 and OPI3, is known to occur at the level of transcript abundance. Derepression in response to inositol deprivation requires the INO2 and INO4 regulatory genes. Repression in response

The differentiation of gametes involves dramatic changes to chromatin, affecting transcription, meiosis, and cell morphology. Sporulation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae shares many chromatin features with spermatogenesis, including a 10-fold compaction of the nucleus. To identify new proteins involved in spore nuclear

In response to nutrient starvation, the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae abandons mitotic proliferation and embarks on a differentiation process that leads through meiosis to the formation of haploid spores. This process is driven by cascading waves of meiosis-specific-gene expression. The
