Project description:We have employed whole genome microarray expression profiling as a discovery platform to identify genes implicated in the resistance to cobalt in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The evolved strains and the wild type were harvested in exponential phase
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:LPS was used as a stressor to stimulate the model organism Saccharomyces cerevisiae. To detect extracellular metabolic information of VOCs. To provide a molecular basis for cellular metabolism of VOCs by proteome.
Project description:We combined the nuclear run-on (NRO) assay which labels and captures nascent transcripts with high throughput DNA sequencing to examine transcriptional activity in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Project description:Ribosome profiling (Ribo-Seq) and RNA-Seq analysis of Saccharomyces cerevisiae with and without 10 minute glucose starvation to determine effects on translation.
Project description:To investigate the glucose regulatory system in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, we conducted a time-course in which glucose-depleted wildtype (WT) cells were inoculated into fresh media (SC, 2% glucose). Their subsequent transcriptional output was monitored over a period of five hours by DNA microarrays: samples for gene expression profiling were taken immediately after, as well as 3, 7.5, 15, 30, 60, 110, 150, and 300 minutes after inoculation into fresh medium. Transcripts upregulated are involved in translational processes such as the GO biological processes “ribosome biogenesis” and “ribosome localization”. Transcripts downregulated are enriched for the GO biological processes “cellular respiration” and various metabolism related processes. The time-course was used to verify the physiological relevance of gene expression profiles determined for individual deletions of glucose regulatory system components. Importantly, transcripts up- or downregulated in WT cells upon the addition of glucose are similarly up- or downregulated in deletion mutants that each lack a component of the glucose regulatory system.
Project description:A propolis-resistant Saccharomyces cerevisiae mutant strain was obtained using an evolutionary engineering strategy based on successive batch cultivation under gradually increasing propolis levels. The mutant strain FD 11 was selected at a propolis concentration that the reference strain could not grow at all. Whole-genome transcriptomic analysis of FD11 was performed with respect to its reference strain to determine differences in gene expression levels between the two strains. Saccharomyces cerevisiae
