Project description:Samples GSM206658-GSM206693: Acquired Stress resistance in S. cerevisiae: NaCl primary and H2O2 secondary Transcriptional timecourses of yeast cells exposed to 0.7M NaCl alone, 0.5mM H2O2 alone, or 0.5mM H2O2 following 0.7M NaCl, all compared to an unstressed sample. Repeated using msn2∆ strain. Samples GSM291156-GSM291196: Transcriptional response to stress in strains lacking MSN2 and/or MSN4 Transcriptional timecourses of yeast cells (WT, msn2∆, msn4∆, or msn2∆msn4∆) exposed to 0.7M NaCl for 45 minutes or 30-37˚C Heat Shift for 15 min compared to an unstressed sample of the same strain. Keywords: Stress Response
Project description:BY4741 (S288c haploid) cells have different gene expression in response to 0.4mM H2O2 when pretreated with 0.7M NaCl compared to cells that are not pretreated with NaCl (mock cells). Cells lacking Nup42p do not exhibit a different gene expression in response to H2O2 between naive cells and cells pretreated with 0.7M NaCl
Project description:BY4741 (S288c haploid) cells have different gene expression in response to 0.4mM H2O2 when pretreated with 0.7M NaCl compared to cells that are not pretreated with NaCl (mock cells). BY4741 cells were grown in log phase for 3 doublings (t0) and then the genomic expression of mock cells to 0.4mM H2O2 was assessed every 10 mins for 40 mins. To study the effects of NaCl treatement on H2O2 response, BY4741 cells were grown in log phase for 3 doublings (t0) and then the genomic expression of cells was measured in response to 0.7M NaCl over the course of 60 min every 15 mins. The cells were then removed from stress and grown in stress free media for four hours (T240). Then these cells were exposed to 0.4mM H2O2 and the genomic expression was measured every 10 minutes during the H2O2 timecourse of 40 minutes. To see if the handling of cells had an affect on gene expression, BY4741 cells were grown for exponentially for 3 doublings (t0), received a mock YPD treatment for 60 mins, grown for 4 hours (T240) and then collected to asses genomic expression. Duplicates were done for at 30 and 45 minutes for the NaCl timecourse, triplicate were done for 0, 10 and 20 minutes in H2O2 timecourse and duplicates were done for 30 and 40 minutes in the H2O2 timecourse.
Project description:NaCl-resistant Saccharomyces cerevisiae mutant was obtained by evolutionary engineering. EMS mutagenized culture was used as the initial population for the selection procedure. Gradually increasing levels of NaCl stress was applied through 40 successive batch cultivations. The reference strain could not grow even at 0.85 M NaCl whereas this mutant was shown to be resistant up to 1.45 M NaCl concentration. Whole-genome microarray analysis was used to identify the NaCl resistance mechanisms by comparing NaCl-resistant mutant strain and the reference strain in the absence of NaCl stress.
