โฆ Synopsis
Genetic analysis of crosses carried out between starch utilizing strains of Saccharomyces diastaticus and laboratory strains of S. cerevisiae has revealed the existence of a gene which inhibits the expression of the amylolytic capability in the resulting hybrids, as well as in the meiotic offspring of the crosses. This gene is unlinked to any of the three STA genes which are known to be responsible for starch utilization by S. diastaticus.

A genetic locus has been identified which controls the basal synthesis of ppGpp in growing E. coli. Cells carrying a recessive allele of the relX gene have a very low concentration of ppGpp during balanced growth, and fail to accumulate ppGpp in response to carbon/energy source downshift. Moreover,
Mutants unable to grow on medium containing glutathione as a sole source of sulphur (GSH medium) were isolated from Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains carrying met17(deficiency of O-acetylserine and O-acetylhomoserine sulphydrylase). They were defective in the high-affinity glutathione transport syste
## Abstract The transcription of the uteroglobin gene (__ug__) is induced by progesterone in the rabbit endometrium, primarily through the binding of the progesterone receptor to the distal region of the __ug__ promoter. However, other transcription factors participate in the progesterone action. T
