Journal ArticleDOI

Functional Characterization of the S. cerevisiae Genome by Gene Deletion and Parallel Analysis

TL;DR: A total of 6925 Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains were constructed, by a high-throughput strategy, each with a precise deletion of one of 2026 ORFs (more than one-third of the ORFs in the genome), finding that 17 percent were essential for viability in rich medium.
Journal ArticleDOI

The glycerol channel Fps1p mediates the uptake of arsenite and antimonite in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

TL;DR: It is shown by direct transport assays that arsenite uptake is mediated by Fps1p, and the first report describing a eukaryotic uptake mechanism for arsenite and antimonite and its involvement in metalloid tolerance is described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Role of Dot1-Dependent Histone H3 Methylation in G1 and S Phase DNA Damage Checkpoint Functions of Rad9

TL;DR: A key role for chromatin and methylation of histone H3 Lys 79 in yeast DNA damage signaling is indicated andscreened radiation-sensitive yeast mutants for DNA damage checkpoint defects and identified Dot1, the conserved hist one H 3 Lys 79 methyltransferase.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular profiling of activated neurons by phosphorylated ribosome capture.

TL;DR: It is shown that ribosomal protein S6, a structural component of the ribosome, becomes phosphorylated in neurons activated by a wide range of stimuli and can be captured from mouse brain homogenates, thereby enriching directly for the mRNAs expressed in discrete subpopulations of activated cells.
