CRABTREE POZİTİF VE CRABTREE NEGATİF MAYA TÜRLERİNDE GCR1 GENİNİN IN SILICO ANALİZİ

The use of fermentation in the presence of oxygen and at high glucose concentrations is referred to as the Crabtree effect. Yeast species that have the Crabtree effect are called Crabtree positive, and yeast species that do not have the Crabtree effect are called Crabtree negative. While Crabtree negative yeast strains are mostly used for heterologous protein production in the industrial field, Crabtree positive yeast strains are used to understand metabolic events in cancer cells. The genes encoding the enzymes involved in the glycolytic pathway in S. cerevisiae yeast cells are controlled by Gcr1p. Gcr1p binds to CT elements located in the promoter regions of glycolytic genes and activates their transcription. In our study, Crabtree positive and negative yeast strains containing Sc-Gcr1p similar proteins were determined, and protein similarity analyzes and promoter analyzes of genes encoding the relevant proteins in these yeast strains were compared in silico using different databases and analysis programs. For this purpose, SGD, UNIPROT, NCBI-Genome and Yeastract databases and BLASTp-NCBI, MEGA-X and Chromatin Folding V2 programs were used. Using the SGD database, 32 different yeast strains were identified that matched with Sc-Gcr1p. Five different Crabtree positive and 5 different Crabtree negative yeast strains were selected from these yeast strains and in silico analyzes were performed using these yeast strains. After protein analysis and promoter analysis, it was determined that the similarities and differences between yeast species were not specific for Crabtree positive and Crabtree negative yeast species, but varied between species.
