説明

<jats:p> Induction of the yeast gene <jats:italic>PHO5</jats:italic> is mediated by the transcription factors PHO2 and PHO4. <jats:italic>PHO5</jats:italic> transcription is not detectable in high phosphate; it is thought that the negative regulators PHO80 and PHO85 inactivate PHO2 and PHO4. Here it is reported that PHO80 has homology to yeast cyclins and interacts with PHO85, a p34 <jats:sup>cdc2/CDC28</jats:sup> -related protein kinase. The PHO80-PHO85 complex phosphorylates PHO4; this phosphorylation is correlated with negative regulation of <jats:italic>PHO5</jats:italic> . These results demonstrate the existence of a cyclin-cdk complex that is used for a regulatory process other than cell-cycle control and identify a physiologically relevant substrate for this complex. </jats:p>
