TLDR
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.
Abstract
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. The expression profiles observed for genes with known metabolic functions pointed to features of the metabolic reprogramming that occur during the diauxic shift, and the expression patterns of many previously uncharacterized genes provided clues to their possible functions. The same DNA microarrays were also used to identify genes whose expression was affected by deletion of the transcriptional co-repressor TUP1 or overexpression of the transcriptional activator YAP1. These results demonstrate the feasibility and utility of this approach to genomewide exploration of gene expression patterns.

Differential gene expression between chronic hepatitis B and C hepatic lesion

TL;DR: In hepatitis B tissue lesions, genes involved in inflammation were predominant, whereas in hepatitis C, expression of anti-inflammatory response genes was relatively dominant, shedding new light on the possible differential molecular mechanisms in the pathogenesis of hepatitis caused by hepatitis B virus and hepatitis C virus infection.

Making sense of microarray data distributions.

TL;DR: It is shown that mRNA transcription data from a wide range of organisms and measured with a range of experimental platforms show close agreement with Benford's law and Zipf's law, and useful biological findings may result from analyzing microarray data at the level of entire intensity distributions.

Redox control of AP-1-like factors in yeast and beyond

TL;DR: In yeast members of the AP-1 family of proteins are required for the transcriptional response to oxidative stress and many of the features appear to be evolutionarily conserved and consequently the study of model organisms, such as yeast, will have widespread utility.

Chromatin-mediated regulation of nucleolar structure and RNA Pol I localization by TOR

TL;DR: It is found that rapamycin and nutrient starvation, conditions inhibiting TOR, lead to significant nucleolar size reduction in both yeast and mammalian cells, and chromatin‐mediated mechanism by which TOR modulates nucleolar structure, RNA Pol I localization and rRNA gene expression in response to nutrient availability is suggested.

Transcriptional Network of Multiple Capsule and Melanin Genes Governed by the Cryptococcus neoformans Cyclic AMP Cascade

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that multiple laccases contribute to C. neoformans melanin production and pathogenesis and LAC2 overexpression suppresses the melanin defects of gpa1 and lac1 mutants and partially restores virulence of these strains.

Quantitative monitoring of gene expression patterns with a complementary DNA microarray.

TL;DR: A high-capacity system was developed to monitor the expression of many genes in parallel by means of simultaneous, two-color fluorescence hybridization, which enabled detection of rare transcripts in probe mixtures derived from 2 micrograms of total cellular messenger RNA.

Expression monitoring by hybridization to high density oligonucleotide arrays

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a method for monitoring the expression levels of a multiplicity of genes by hybridizing a nucleic acid sample to a high density array of oligonucleotide probes and quantifying the hybridized nucleic acids in the array.

A DNA microarray system for analyzing complex DNA samples using two-color fluorescent probe hybridization.

TL;DR: This work describes a general experimental approach, using microscopic arrays of DNA fragments on glass substrates for differential hybridization analysis of fluorescently labeled DNA samples, and demonstrates the utility of DNA microarrays in the analysis of complex DNA samples.
