A series of yeast shuttle vectors and host strains has been created to allow more efficient manipulation of DNA in Saccharomyces cerevisiae to perform most standard DNA manipulations in the same plasmid that is introduced into yeast.Abstract:
A series of yeast shuttle vectors and host strains has been created to allow more efficient manipulation of DNA in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Transplacement vectors were constructed and used to derive yeast strains containing nonreverting his3, trp1, leu2 and ura3 mutations. A set of YCp and YIp vectors (pRS series) was then made based on the backbone of the multipurpose plasmid pBLUESCRIPT. These pRS vectors are all uniform in structure and differ only in the yeast selectable marker gene used (HIS3, TRP1, LEU2 and URA3). They possess all of the attributes of pBLUESCRIPT and several yeast-specific features as well. Using a pRS vector, one can perform most standard DNA manipulations in the same plasmid that is introduced into yeast.read more

Oligomerization and phosphorylation of the Ire1p kinase during intracellular signaling from the endoplasmic reticulum to the nucleus.
Caroline E. Shamu,Peter Walter +1 more
TL;DR: Molecular genetic and biochemical studies described here suggest that, as in the case of growth factor receptors of higher eukaryotic cells, Ire1p oligomerizes in response to the accumulation of unfolded proteins in the ER and is phosphorylated in trans by otherIre1p molecules as a result of oligomerization.

Additional modules for versatile and economical PCR-based gene deletion and modification in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Mark S. Longtine,Amos Mckenzie,Douglas J. Demarini,Nirav Shah,Achim Wach,Arndt Brachat,Peter Philippsen,John R. Pringle +7 more
TL;DR: A new set of plasmids that serve as templates for the PCR synthesis of fragments that allow a variety of gene modifications that should further facilitate the rapid analysis of gene function in S. cerevisiae.

Correlation between Protein and mRNA Abundance in Yeast
TL;DR: The results clearly delineate the technical boundaries of current approaches for quantitative analysis of protein expression and reveal that simple deduction from mRNA transcript analysis is insufficient to predict protein expression levels from quantitative mRNA data.

Lysine Acetylation Targets Protein Complexes and Co-Regulates Major Cellular Functions
Chunaram Choudhary,Chanchal Kumar,Florian Gnad,Michael L. Nielsen,Michael Rehman,Tobias C. Walther,Jesper V. Olsen,Matthias Mann +7 more
TL;DR: A proteomic-scale analysis of protein acetylation suggests that it is an important biological regulatory mechanism and the regulatory scope of lysine acetylations is broad and comparable with that of other major posttranslational modifications.

TL;DR: A set of yeast strains based on Saccharomyces cerevisiae S288C in which commonly used selectable marker genes are deleted by design based on the yeast genome sequence has been constructed and analysed and will reduce plasmid integration events which can interfere with a wide variety of molecular genetic applications.

Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual
TL;DR: Molecular Cloning has served as the foundation of technical expertise in labs worldwide for 30 years as mentioned in this paper and has been so popular, or so influential, that no other manual has been more widely used and influential.

A technique for radiolabeling DNA restriction endonuclease fragments to high specific activity
TL;DR: A technique for conveniently radiolabeling DNA restriction endonuclease fragments to high specific activity is described, and these "oligolabeled" DNA fragments serve as efficient probes in filter hybridization experiments.

Transformation of intact yeast cells treated with alkali cations.
TL;DR: The transformation efficiency with Cs+ or Li+ was comparable with that of conventional protoplast methods for a plasmid containing ars1, although not for plasmids containing a 2 microns origin replication.

Screening lambdagt recombinant clones by hybridization to single plaques in situ
WD Benton,Ronald W. Davis +1 more
TL;DR: A rapid, direct method for screening single plaques of Agt recombinant phage is described, which allows at least 10(6) clones to be screened per day and simplifies physical containment of recombinants.
