What Does It Mean to Follow? An Exploration of a Followership Profile in Hospitality and Tourism

Although leadership has received considerable attention from many scholars, much less research has focused on those who follow leaders; yet, followers contribute much to the success of an organization. This study explored the followership profiles of stakeholders in hospitality and tourism education. The findings summarize the followership dimensions of a sample of hospitality students, educators, and industry professionals. For each of the five followership dimensions the mean scores for industry professionals were rated higher when compared with students and educators, with courage to participate in transformation being the highest rated among all three groups. Implications for hospitality education are presented

A nonameric core sequence is required upstream of the LYS genes of Saccharomyces cerevisiae for Lys14p-mediated activation and apparent repression by lysine.

The expression of the structural genes for lysine (LYS) biosynthesis is controlled by a pathway-specific regulation mediated by the transcriptional activator Lys14 in the presence of alpha-aminoadipate semialdehyde, an intermediate of the pathway acting as a co-inducer. Owing to end product inhibition of the first step of the pathway, excess lysine reduces the production of the co-inducer and causes apparent repression of the LYS genes. Analysis of LYS promoters and insertions within an heterologous reporter gene have allowed the characterization of an upstream activating element (UASLYS) able to confer Lys14- and alpha-amino-adipate semialdehyde-dependent activation as well as apparent repression by lysine to another yeast gene. This DNA motif is present as one of several copies in the promoters of at least six LYS genes. The consensus sequence derived from the comparison of the UASLYS showing the highest activation capacities comprises the nonameric core sequence TCCRNYGGA. The RNY sequence of the 3 bp spacer as well as the presence of flanking AT-rich regions on both sides of the core sequence appear essential for optimal activation. Further evidence that this element is the target of Lys14p was provided by the demonstration that Lys14p binds to UASLYS in vitro. The binding is independent of the presence of the co-inducer and is not affected by lysine. It depends on the integrity of the putative Zn(II)2Cys6 binuclear cluster contained in the Lys14p.Journal ArticleResearch Support, Non-U.S. Gov'tSCOPUS: ar.jFLWINinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishe
