DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:By using a combination of genetic, biochemical, and physiological approaches, Dr. Bender&rsquo;s group has studied the response of genes to nitrogen starvation.&nbsp;In particular they have characterized the role of a remarkably versatile regulator known as the Nitrogen Assimilation Control (NAC) protein.&nbsp;Dr. Bender will discuss how a simple question led to understanding a complex system, how a single regulator can be so versatile in its mechanism of action, and the surprising number of physiological functions NAC is able to regulate.&nbsp;In short, NAC is able to capture almost any biochemical pathway and put it under the control of the nitrogen-starvation signal.
