Copper-binding transcription factor; activates transcription of the metallothionein genes CUP1-1 and CUP1-2 in response to elevated copper concentrations; required for regulation of copper genes in response to DNA-damaging reagents; CUP2 has a paralog, HAA1, that arose from the whole genome duplication [Source:SGD;Acc:S000003134]
ACE1
Chromosome VII: 191,129-191,806 forward strand.
R64-1-1:BK006941.2
This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 13 orthologues and 1 paralogue.
