Project description:Nitric oxide being a versatile molecule inside biological systems, from being both a cell signaling molecule to a potent stress agent, has significant effect in the transcriptional response in fission yeast. We have used fission yeast microarrays to identify cellular targets of Nitric Oxide (NO) and to further understand the cellular mechanism of NO action. We report the change in the global gene expression profile response to NO in S. pombe cells
Project description:The cells with the impaired Hsp40/Hsp70 chaperone complex Mas5/Ssa2 exhibit a transriptional response that is simillar to that of cells with the elevated levels of the heat-shock factor 1 (Hsf1) or heat-stressed wild type fission yeast cells
