Yap1 overproduction restores arsenite resistance to the ABC transporter deficient mutant <i>ycf1</i> by activating <i>ACR3</i> expression
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Ycf1 and Acr3 are transporters that have been previously shown to protect Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells from the toxic effects of arsenite. Ycf1 and Acr3 are positively regulated by distinct, but related bZIP transcriptional activators, Yap1 and Yap8, respectively. In this study, we show that overexpression of Yap1 complemented the arsenite hypersensitivity of the ycf1 null mutant, but only if the ACR3 gene is functional. We further show that the expression of either an ACR3-lacZ promoter fusion reporter or the endogenous ACR3 gene was stimulated by the overproduction of Yap1 upon exposure to arsenite. These data suggest that Yap1 confers arsenite resistance to the ycf1 null mutant by activating expression of the Yap8-dependent target gene, ACR3. Our data also show Yap8-dependent ACR3-lacZ expression was greatly stimulated by arsenite in a dose-dependent manner in the parental strain. However, overproduction of Yap1 in the parental strain severely limited dose-dependent activation of the reporter by arsenite. We conclude that Yap1 may compete with Yap8 for binding to the ACR3 promoter, but is unable to act as a potent activator.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
