Project description:The goal of this experiment is to identify transcripts regulated by Cbc2, the small subunit of nuclear cap binding complex (CBC) in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Keywords: Genetic modification
Project description:Saccharomyces cerevisiae is an excellent microorganism for industrial succinic acid production, but high succinic acid concentration will inhibit the growth of Saccharomyces cerevisiae then reduce the production of succinic acid. Through analysis the transcriptomic data of Saccharomyces cerevisiae with different genetic backgrounds under different succinic acid stress, we hope to find the response mechanism of Saccharomyces cerevisiae to succinic acid.
Project description:We propose a carbon source dependent genetic regulatory network for the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, derived from quantitative proteomic analyses integrated with bioinformatics knowledge of regulatory pathways and protein interactions. The proposed network, comprising 1247 transcription factor interactions and 126 chaperone interactions, defines the proteome shift in the cell when growing under different carbon sources. We used a label-free proteomics strategy to quantify alterations in protein abundance for S. cerevisiae when grown on minimal media using glucose, galactose, maltose and trehalose as sole carbon sources.
Project description:Chromatin immunoprecipitation of Set3 complex applied with tilling array chip ( ChIP on chip of either Set3-TAP or Snt1-TAP) analysis demonstrated that the genome-wide localization of Set3 complex in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Project description:The association of the RSC remodeler complex with the chromatin depends on the prefoldin-like Bud27 and determines the nucleosome positioning and polyadenylation sites usage in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Project description:The Pleiotropic Drug Resistance (PDR) network is central to the drug response in fungi, and its overactivation is associated with drug resistance. However, gene regulation of the PDR network is not well understood. Here, we established a method to identify proteins that bind promoter of the PDR5 multidrug transporter gene in Saccharomyces cerevisiae using minichromosome isolation and SILAC-based quantitative proteomics, and identified the SWI/SNF chromatin remodelling complex as a PDR5 promoter-binding complex. We also purified the SWI/SNF complex from S. cerevisiae by immunoprecipitating Flag-tagged Snf6, a subunit of SWI/SNF, and identified the subunits of SWI/SNF and its binding proteins by LC-MS/MS.
