Description: (a) When galactose is absent, Gal80 protein binds the activation domain of Gal4 to inactivate that protein and block GAL gene transcription. (b) When galactose is present, Gal3 protein binds Gal80 protein to prevent it from binding Gal4 protein. The activation domain of Gal4 protein is then available to initiate GAL gene transcription(a) When galactose is absent, Gal80 protein binds the activation domain of Gal4 to inactivate that protein and block GAL gene transcription.
