Binding of the MIG1 repressor to the glucose-repressible GAL1 and GAL4
promoters was analyzed in vivo by cyclobutane dimer footprinting in two
yeast strains that show different glucose repression responses. Mig1p
binding to the two promoters in both strains was glucose-induced. In cells
subject to rapid and stringent glucose repression (S288c), long- term Mig1p
binding in glucose-grown cells was inhibited by the formation of a
competing chromatin structure. Under conditions where glucose repression
was only partially effective (gal80 - or low glucose), the chromatin
structure did not form and long-term Mig1p binding was observed The same
long-term binding of Mig1p was seen in cells of a different strain (W303A)
that shows only partial glucose repression of the GAL1 promoter. We
conclude from these experiments that Mig1p binding to glucose-repressed
promoters is glucose-dependent but transient. We suggest that Mig1p
functions at an early step in repression, but is not required to maintain
the repressed state.
