Hello:  I have a yeast gene under the ctl of the gal10 promoter.  I am
wondering what methods are available for lowering the expression of the
protein.  Expression is too high for my purposes (immunofluorescent
localization).  Can I expect significant basal expression in raffinose or
another nonfermentable C source like acetate or ethanol?  Does lowering
the gal concentration work?  
Thank you,  John Aitchison
