Asymmetric Transcription Factor Partitioning During Yeast Cell Division Requires the FACT Chromatin Remodeler and Cell Cycle Progression.
Title: Asymmetric Transcription Factor Partitioning During Yeast Cell Division Requires the FACT Chromatin Remodeler and Cell Cycle Progression.
ACE2, a transcription factor required for septum destruction after cytokinesis, is a negative regulator of ethanol tolerance.
Title: Identifying and characterizing SCRaMbLEd synthetic yeast using ReSCuES.
Therefore, Ace2 and Swi5 are two negative regulators of ethanol yield during static fermentation of yeast cells, and both CTS1 and RPS4a are major effectors mediating these two transcription factors in regulating ethanol production.
Title: The transcription factor Ace2 and its paralog Swi5 regulate ethanol production during static fermentation through their targets Cts1 and Rps4a in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Data show that mutation of the Rts1 regulatory subunit of PP2A phosphatase (PP2ARts1 phosphatase) results in decreased HO endonuclease expression due to altered localization of the Ace2 transcription factor.
Title: The Rts1 regulatory subunit of PP2A phosphatase controls expression of the HO endonuclease via localization of the Ace2 transcription factor.
Genome duplication and mutations in ACE2 cause multicellular, fast-sedimenting phenotypes in evolved Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Title: Genome duplication and mutations in ACE2 cause multicellular, fast-sedimenting phenotypes in evolved Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
show that Ace2 asymmetry is initiated in the elongated, but undivided, anaphase nucleus
Title: Nuclear envelope morphology constrains diffusion and promotes asymmetric protein segregation in closed mitosis.
we discovered previously unrecognized levels of regulation of the Ace2 transcription factor and the cyclin-dependent protein kinase inhibitor Sic1
Title: New insight into the role of the Cdc34 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme in cell cycle regulation via Ace2 and Sic1.
Data show that Ace2's nuclear localization is maintained by continuous Cbk1 activity and that inhibition of the kinase leads to immediate loss of phosphorylation and export to the cytoplasm.
Title: Sequential counteracting kinases restrict an asymmetric gene expression program to early G1.
Regulation of CLN3 expression by Ace2 and Ash1 can account for the differential regulation of Start in response to cell size in mothers and daughters.
Title: Daughter-specific transcription factors regulate cell size control in budding yeast.
In the daughter cell nucleus Cbk1p phosphorylates the Ace2p nuclear export signal, and the phosphorylation blocks the export of Ace2p via Crm1p.
Title: Mutations in a small region of the exportin Crm1p disrupt the daughter cell-specific nuclear localization of the transcription factor Ace2p in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Preferred Names: DNA-binding transcription factor ACE2

NP_013232.1

Transcription factor required for septum destruction after cytokinesis; part of the RAM network that regulates polarity and morphogenesis; NES phosphorylation by RAM network kinase Cbk1p blocks nuclear exit in mother cells during the M/G1 transition, causing asymmetric localization to daughter cell nuclei, and increased Ace2p activity; phosphorylation by Cdc28p and Pho85p prevents nuclear import during cell cycle phases other than cytokinesis; Spt16p is required for nuclear exclusion during G1
