Journal ArticleDOI
Global transcriptional responses of fission yeast to environmental stress
Dongrong Chen,W. Mark Toone,Juan Mata,Rachel Lyne,Gavin Burns,Katja Kivinen,Alvis Brazma,Nic Jones,Jürg Bähler +8 more
TL;DR: Transcriptional responses of the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe to various environmental stresses were explored and promoter motifs associated with some of the groups of coregulated genes were identified.
Journal ArticleDOI
Periodic gene expression program of the fission yeast cell cycle
Gabriella Rustici,Juan Mata,Katja Kivinen,Pietro Liò,Christopher J. Penkett,Gavin Burns,Jacqueline Hayles,Alvis Brazma,Paul Nurse,Paul Nurse,Jürg Bähler +10 more
TL;DR: The genome-wide transcriptional program of the Schizosaccharomyces pombe cell cycle was studied in this paper, identifying 407 periodically expressed genes of which 136 show high-amplitude changes.
Journal ArticleDOI
The transcriptional program of meiosis and sporulation in fission yeast.
TL;DR: Comparison with the meiotic program of the distantly related Saccharomyces cerevisiae reveals an unexpectedly small shared meiotic transcriptome, suggesting that the transcriptional regulation of meiosis evolved independently in both species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Whole-genome microarrays of fission yeast: characteristics, accuracy, reproducibility, and processing of array data.
Rachel Lyne,Rachel Lyne,Gavin Burns,Juan Mata,Christopher J. Penkett,Gabriella Rustici,Dongrong Chen,Cordelia Langford,David Vetrie,Jürg Bähler +9 more
TL;DR: The genome of the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe has recently been sequenced, setting the stage for the post-genomic era of this increasingly popular model organism and providing data for several microarray properties that are rarely measured.
Journal ArticleDOI
Global Effects on Gene Expression in Fission Yeast by Silencing and RNA Interference Machineries
Klavs R. Hansen,Gavin Burns,Juan Mata,Tom Volpe,Robert A. Martienssen,Jürg Bähler,Geneviève Thon +6 more
TL;DR: It is indicated that the RNAi and Clr proteins show only a limited functional overlap and that the ClR proteins play more global roles in gene silencing, while the wtf family of repeated sequences seems to be repressed by histone deacetylation independent of RNAi.
