Imaging real-time gene expression in living yeast.

چکیده
INTRODUCTIONThis protocol describes the application of the MS2 system to the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. ASH1 mRNA tagged with six MS2 repeats (6MBSs) is used to follow the localization of the ASH1 mRNA particles to the bud tip of a haploid yeast cell. W303 yeast cells transformed with pG14-MS2-GFP and pGAL-lacZ-MS2-ASH1 are grown on select medium lacking tryptophan and leucine. RNA expression is induced by the addition of galactose, and a time-lapse movie is then acquired.

متن کاملYCF and YAP gene expressions in yeast cells after irradiation combined with mercury treatment
Background: All aerobically growing organisms suffer from exposure to oxidative stress, caused by partially reduced forms of molecular oxygen, known as reactive oxygen species (ROS). These are highly reactive and capable of damaging cellular constituents such as DNA, lipids and proteins. Consequently, cells from many different organisms have evolved mechanisms to protect their components...
متن کاملGlabridin triggers over-expression of apoptosis inducing factor (AIF) gene in Candida albicans
Background and Purpose: Candida albicans is a prevalent human fungal pathogen that can cause a wide spectrum of diseases, from superficial mucosal infections to systemic disorders, in patients with impaired immunity. Glabridin is a pyranoisoflavan originally extracted from root extract of Glycyrrhiza glabra. Glabridin can also mediate apoptosis in yeast cells by changing the mitochondrial membr...
متن کاملDown-Regulation of the ALS3 Gene as a Consequent Effect of RNA-Mediated Silencing of the EFG1 Gene in Candida albicans
Background: The most important virulence factor which plays a central role in Candida albicans pathogenesis is the ability of this yeast to alternate between unicellular yeast and filamentous hyphal forms. Efg1 protein is thought to be the main positive regulating transcription factor, which is responsible for regulating hyphal-specific gene expression under most conditions. ALS3 is one of the ...
متن کاملEvaluation of GNMT Gene Expression in Prostate Cancer Tissues using Real-Time PCR
Introduction: Prostate cancer is the second most common cancer and the leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. In the present study, the expression level of glycine N-methyl transferase gene (GNMT) was investigated in prostate cancer tissue. The GNMT enzyme is encoded by the GNMT gene. Increased GNMT gene expression increases the conversion of glycine to sarcosine and results in the e...
