In yeast, the GCR1 transcription factor is involved in the regulation of glycolysis and its deletion exhibited growth defect, reduced inositol and phosphatidylinositol (PI) levels compared to WT cells. We observed a down regulation of the INO1 and PIS1 expression in gcr1 cells under both I-and I+conditions and the over expression of GCR1 in gcr1 cells restored the growth, retrieved the expression of INO1, and PIS1 comparable to WT cells. In the gel shift assay, the Gcr1p binds to its consensus sequence CTTCC in PIS1 promoter and regulates its expression but not in INO1 transcription. The WT cells, under I-significantly reduced the expression of GCR1 and PIS1, but increased the expression of KCS1 and de-repressed INO1. The Kcs1p expression was reduced in gcr1 cells; this reduced INO1 expression resulting in abnormal vacuolar structure and reduced autophagy in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
