The influence of flocculation upon global gene transcription in a yeast CYC8 mutant.

ABSTRACT: The transcriptome from a Saccharomyces cerevisiae tup1 deletion mutant was one of the first comprehensive yeast transcriptomes published. Subsequent transcriptomes from tup1 and cyc8 mutants firmly established the Tup1-Cyc8 complex as predominantly acting as a repressor of gene transcription. However, transcriptomes from tup1/cyc8 gene deletion or conditional mutants would all have been influenced by the striking flocculation phenotypes that these mutants display. In this study, we have separated the impact of flocculation from the transcriptome in a cyc8 conditional mutant to reveal those genes (i) subject solely to Cyc8p-dependent regulation, (ii) regulated by flocculation only and (iii) regulated by Cyc8p and further influenced by flocculation.
