GAL1
galactokinase, L000000658, YBR020W
Galactokinase; phosphorylates alpha-D-galactose to alpha-D-galactose-1-phosphate in the first step of galactose catabolism; expression regulated by Gal4p; GAL1 has a paralog, GAL3, that arose from the whole genome duplication

The yeast galactose genetic switch is mediated by the formation of a Gal4p-Gal80p-Gal3p complex.
Saccharomyces cerevisiae responds to galactose as the sole source of carbon by activating the GAL genes encoding the enzymes of the Leloir pathway. Here, we show in vitro that the switch from repressed to activated gene expression involves the interplay of three proteins [an activator (Gal4p), a repressor (Gal80p) and an inducer (Gal3p)] and two small molecules (galactose and ATP). ...
