Glucose-responsive transcription factor; regulates expression of several glucose transporter (HXT) genes in response to glucose; binds to promoters and acts both as a transcriptional activator and repressor; recruits Tup1p/Cyc8p to target gene promoters; RGT1 has a paralog, EDS1, that arose from the whole genome duplication [Source:SGD;Acc:S000001521]
Chromosome XI: 365,605-369,117 forward strand.
R64-1-1:BK006944.2
This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 14 orthologues and 1 paralogue.
