InSaccharomyces cerevisiae, Avt4 exports neutral and basic amino acids from vacuoles. Previous studies have suggested that the GATA transcription factors, Gln3 and Gat1, which are key regulators that adapt cells in response to changes in amino acid status, are involved in theAVT4transcription. Here, we show that mutations in the putative GATA-binding sites of theAVT4promoter reducedAVT4expression.Consistently, a chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assay revealed that Gat1-Myc13binds to theAVT4promoter. Previous microarray results were confirmed thatgln3∆gat1∆ cells showed a decrease in expression ofAVT1andAVT7, which also encode vacuolar amino acid transporters. Additionally, ChIP analysis revealed that theAVT6encoding vacuolar acidic amino acid exporter represents a new direct target of the GATA transcription factor. The broad effect of the GATA transcription factors on the expression of AVT transporters suggests that vacuolar amino acid transport is integrated into cellular amino acid homeostasis.
