TLDR
Using this method, an extended series of new yeast centromere, episomal and replicating plasmids containing, in various combinations, the selectable yeast markers LEU2, HIS3, LYS2, URA3 and TRP1 are constructed.

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.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multiple Pathways of Recombination Induced by Double-Strand Breaks in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

TL;DR: This review encompasses different aspects of DSB-induced recombination in Saccharomyces and attempts to relate genetic, molecular biological, and biochemical studies of the processes of DNA repair and recombination.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Suppressor of Two Essential Checkpoint Genes Identifies a Novel Protein that Negatively Affects dNTP Pools

TL;DR: It is proposed that Sml1 inhibits dNTP synthesis posttranslationally by binding directly to Rnr1 and that Mec1 and Rad53 are required to relieve this inhibition.
Journal ArticleDOI

DNA assembler, an in vivo genetic method for rapid construction of biochemical pathways

TL;DR: A new method, DNA assembler, is reported, which allows the assembly of an entire biochemical pathway in a single step via in vivo homologous recombination in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and represents a powerful tool in the construction of biochemical pathways for synthetic biology, metabolic engineering and functional genomics studies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Semi-synthetic artemisinin: a model for the use of synthetic biology in pharmaceutical development

TL;DR: This Review describes the metabolic engineering and synthetic biology approaches that were used to develop this important antimalarial drug precursor and illuminates how lessons learned from this work could be applied to the production of other pharmaceutical agents.

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.

Construction and characterization of new cloning vehicles. II. A multipurpose cloning system.

TL;DR: In vitro recombination techniques were used to construct a new cloning vehicle, pBR322, which is a relaxed replicating plasmid, does not produce and is sensitive to colicin E1, and carries resistance genes to the antibiotics ampicillin (Ap) and tetracycline (Tc).

Transformation of intact yeast cells treated with alkali cations or thiol compounds

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.

Transformation of yeast

TL;DR: This work has used recently developed hybridization and restriction endonuclease mapping techniques to demonstrate directly the presence of the transforming DNA in the yeast genome and also to determine the arrangement of the sequences that were introduced.
Journal ArticleDOI

Yeast transformation: a model system for the study of recombination

TL;DR: Consideration of models for plasmid integration and gene conversion suggests that RAD52 may be involved in the DNA repair synthesis required for these processes and implications for the isolation of integrative transformants, fine-structure mapping, and the cloning of mutations are discussed.
