Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of Saccharomyces cerevisiae spindle pole body remodeling factors.

TL;DR: NUP60, POM152, and NCS2 are required for SPB growth during a mitotic cell cycle arrest, and UBC4 is required to maintain SPB size during the cell cycle.
Journal ArticleDOI

PhenoM: a database of morphological phenotypes caused by mutation of essential genes in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

TL;DR: The design and implementation of an online database, PhenoM (Phenomics of yeast Mutants), for storing, retrieving, visualizing and data mining the quantitative single-cell measurements extracted from micrographs of the ts mutant cells is described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Global Linkage Map Connects Meiotic Centromere Function to Chromosome Size in Budding Yeast

TL;DR: Synthetic genetic array analysis automates yeast genetics, enabling high-throughput construction of ordered arrays of double mutants, and results suggest that chromosome size may have a direct role in regulating the fidelity of chromosome segregation during meiosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

The indispensable genome

TL;DR: For the first time, the authors now have a firm handle on the core set of essential genes that are required for human cell division, which opens the door to studying the roles ofessential genes, how gene essentiality depends on genetic and tissue contexts, and how essential genes evolve.
