E)GAL80 and GAL3 are not involved in GAL expression.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

GAL80 is a repressor that inhibits GAL gene expression by binding to GAL4, a transcriptional activator necessary for GAL gene expression. GAL3, on the other hand, promotes GAL gene expression by relieving the inhibition imposed by GAL80 on GAL4, thus allowing transcription of GAL genes.
