TLDR
A comprehensive catalog of yeast genes whose transcript levels vary periodically within the cell cycle is created, and it is found that the mRNA levels of more than half of these 800 genes respond to one or both of these cyclins.
Abstract
We sought to create a comprehensive catalog of yeast genes whose transcript levels vary periodically within the cell cycle. To this end, we used DNA microarrays and samples from yeast cultures sync...

The kinase haspin is required for mitotic histone H3 Thr 3 phosphorylation and normal metaphase chromosome alignment

TL;DR: A new kinase involved in composing the histone code is revealed and haspin is added to the select group of kinases that integrate regulation of chromosome and spindle function during mitosis and meiosis.

A neutral model of transcriptome evolution.

TL;DR: The results suggest that the majority of expression differences observed between species are selectively neutral or nearly neutral and likely to be of little or no functional significance, which should be based on null hypotheses assuming functional neutrality.

Architecture and Biosynthesis of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae Cell Wall

TL;DR: Walls biogenesis in vegetative cells is reviewed, covering the structure of wall components and how they are cross-linked; the biosynthesis of N- and O-linked glycans, glycosylphosphatidylinositol membrane anchors, β1,3- and β 1,6-linked glucans, and chitin; the reactions that cross-link wall components; and the possible functions of enzymatic and nonenzymatic cell wall proteins.

Histone H2A.Z Regulates Transcription and Is Partially Redundant with Nucleosome Remodeling Complexes

TL;DR: A novel pathway for regulating transcription using variant histones to modulate chromatin structure is described using H2A.Z, which is seen at the level of single genes and acts downstream of promoter nucleosome reorganization.
Journal ArticleDOI

Positive feedback of G1 cyclins ensures coherent cell cycle entry

TL;DR: Positive-feedback-amplified expression of Cln1 and Cln2 simultaneously drives robust budding and rapid, coherent regulon expression, which suggests either conservation of regulatory architecture or convergent evolution.

Cluster analysis and display of genome-wide expression patterns

TL;DR: A system of cluster analysis for genome-wide expression data from DNA microarray hybridization is described that uses standard statistical algorithms to arrange genes according to similarity in pattern of gene expression, finding in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae that clustering gene expression data groups together efficiently genes of known similar function.

Real time quantitative PCR.

TL;DR: Unlike other quantitative PCR methods, real-time PCR does not require post-PCR sample handling, preventing potential PCR product carry-over contamination and resulting in much faster and higher throughput assays.

Exploring the Metabolic and Genetic Control of Gene Expression on a Genomic Scale

TL;DR: DNA microarrays containing virtually every gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae were used to carry out a comprehensive investigation of the temporal program of gene expression accompanying the metabolic shift from fermentation to respiration, and the expression patterns of many previously uncharacterized genes provided clues to their possible functions.

Getting started with yeast.

TL;DR: The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is now recognized as a model system representing a simple eukaryote whose genome can be easily manipulated and made particularly accessible to gene cloning and genetic engineering techniques.

A Genome-Wide Transcriptional Analysis of the Mitotic Cell Cycle

TL;DR: The genome-wide characterization of mRNA transcript levels during the cell cycle of the budding yeast S. cerevisiae indicates a mechanism for local chromosomal organization in global mRNA regulation and links a range of human genes to cell cycle period-specific biological functions.
