Exploration of essential gene functions via titratable promoter alleles

TLDR
This study created promoter-shutoff strains for over two-thirds of all essential yeast genes and subjected them to morphological analysis, size profiling, drug sensitivity screening, and microarray expression profiling, which identified genes involved in ribosome biogenesis, protein secretion, mitochondrial import, and tRNA charging.

A global genetic interaction network maps a wiring diagram of cellular function

TL;DR: A global genetic interaction network highlights the functional organization of a cell and provides a resource for predicting gene and pathway function and how coherent sets of negative or positive genetic interactions connect protein complex and pathways to map a functional wiring diagram of the cell.

Sgs1 helicase and two nucleases Dna2 and Exo1 resect DNA double-strand break ends.

TL;DR: Monitoring 5'-strand resection at inducible DSB ends in yeast and identified proteins required for two stages of resection shows that the Mre11-Rad50-Xrs2 complex (MRX) initiates 5' degradation, whereas Sgs1 and Dna2 degrade 5' strands exposing long 3' strands.

Tuning genetic control through promoter engineering

TL;DR: The characterized library of promoters is used to assess the impact of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase levels on growth yield and deoxy-xylulose-P synthase Levels on lycopene production and is illustrated as being generalizable to eukaryotic organisms and thus constitutes an integral platform for functional genomics, synthetic biology, and metabolic engineering endeavors.

Exploration of the Function and Organization of the Yeast Early Secretory Pathway through an Epistatic Miniarray Profile

TL;DR: Analysis of an E-MAP of genes acting in the yeast early secretory pathway revealed or clarified the role of many proteins involved in extensively studied processes such as sphingolipid metabolism and retention of HDEL proteins.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gene essentiality and synthetic lethality in haploid human cells

TL;DR: A synthetic lethality network focused on the secretory pathway based exclusively on mutations was created and revealed a genetic cross-talk governing Golgi homeostasis, an additional subunit of the human oligosaccharyltransferase complex, and a phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase β adaptor hijacked by viruses.

Gene Ontology: tool for the unification of biology

TL;DR: The goal of the Gene Ontology Consortium is to produce a dynamic, controlled vocabulary that can be applied to all eukaryotes even as knowledge of gene and protein roles in cells is accumulating and changing.

Neural networks for pattern recognition

TL;DR: This is the first comprehensive treatment of feed-forward neural networks from the perspective of statistical pattern recognition, and is designed as a text, with over 100 exercises, to benefit anyone involved in the fields of neural computation and pattern recognition.

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.
Journal ArticleDOI

A comprehensive analysis of protein–protein interactions in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

TL;DR: Examination of large-scale yeast two-hybrid screens reveals interactions that place functionally unclassified proteins in a biological context, interactions between proteins involved in the same biological function, and interactions that link biological functions together into larger cellular processes.
