Chromatin immunoprecipitation of activated yeast signal transduction protein kinases

ABSTRACT: Cellular signal transduction pathways modify gene expression programs in response to changes in the environment, but the mechanisms by which they regulate populations of genes under their control are not entirely understood. We present evidence that most mitogen-activated protein kinases and protein kinase A subunits become physically associated with the genes they regulate in the yeast genome. The ability to detect this interaction of signaling kinases with target genes can be used to map more precisely and comprehensively the regulatory circuitry that eukaryotic cells use to respond to their environment.
