pSTE12 - constitutive promoter in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

STE12 is a transcription factor activated by the MAPK signaling cascade, responsible for inducing genes involved in mating and pseudohyphal/invasive growth pathways in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. It works in conjunction with the transcription factor Tec1p to regulate genes specific to invasive growth (1) (2). Although typically regulated by environmental signals. pSTE12 promoter was utilized as a constitutive promoter, driving expression of receptor modules independent of external signaling. Instead, pSTE12 was used in the receptor module for AhR | BBa_K5477023.
