Project description:The budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a popular host to be used to produce recombinant proteins. Here we studied three yeast strains with different productivity using the RNA-seq data to elucidate the mechanisms for improving protein production.
Project description:Transcript profiling from a population of cell-cycle-arrested B-type cyclin mutant budding yeast. We compared transcript to protein expression levels in mutant cells.
Project description:DNA replication forks that are stalled by DNA damage activate an S phase checkpoint that prevents irreversible fork arrest and cell death. The increased cell death caused by DNA damage in budding yeast cells lacking the Rad53 checkpoint protein kinase is partially suppressed by deletion of the EXO1 gene. Here,we identified that loss of the histone deacetylase complex Rpd3L promotes survival of rad53∆ cells exposed to DNA damaging agents. From epistasis analysis, we show that this suppression operates in a separate pathway from the previously described suppression by deletion of EXO1.
Project description:Transcriptional change by profiling yeast cells, comparing polyploid S. cerevisiae cells at 1000 generations with ancestral cells. Transcriptional change by profiling yeast cells, comparing both ancestral and evolved cells with diploid cells, stands for control.
