Precise gene-dose alleles for chemical genetics.
Modulating gene dose is an effective way to alter protein levels and modify phenotypes to understand gene function. In addition, combining gene-dose alleles with chemical perturbation can provide insight into drug-gene interactions. Here, we present a strategy that combines diverse loss-of-function alleles to systematically modulate gene dose in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The generated gene dosa...
متن کاملInfection genetics: gene-for-gene versus matching- alleles models and all points in between
Here we address the controversy between plant pathologists and invertebrate zoologists as to the genetic basis of infection. We show that the alternative models proposed by these groups represent two ends of a continuum. Specifically, the gene-for-gene (GFG) model of plant pathologists represents one end of a continuum, where a very broad host range is expected to occur in one pathogen genotype...
متن کاملChemical Genetics: Where Genetics and Pharmacology Meet
Genetics and pharmacology can elicit surprisingly different phenotypes despite targeting the same protein. This Essay explores these unexpected differences and their implications for biology and medicine.
متن کاملFrontiers in chemical genetics.
New methods enable the identification of compounds that both induce a specific cellular state and lead to identification of proteins that regulate that state. Together, developments in three critical areas: chemical diversity, phenotype-based screening and target identification, enable the systematic application of this chemical genetic approach to almost any biological problem or disease process.
متن کاملCombination chemical genetics.
Predicting the behavior of living organisms is an enormous challenge given their vast complexity. Efforts to model biological systems require large datasets generated by physical binding experiments and perturbation studies. Genetic perturbations have proven important and are greatly facilitated by the advent of comprehensive mutant libraries in model organisms. Small-molecule chemical perturba...
