Project description:Experiment a) Establishment of expression profiles in conventional papillary thyroid carcinomas (PTCs) with a BRAF mutation vs. PTCs without a BRAF mutation and using normal thyroid (TN) specimens as reference. Experiment b) Establishment of expression profiles in follicular adenomas (FAs) of the thyroid and follicular variant of papillary thyroid carcinomas (FVPTCs).
Project description:45 genome-wide microarray measurements for 23 mutation accumulation lines grown in YPD liquid culture MA lines obtained by single-colony transfer on YPD plates for 600 generations, starting from a BY4741 derived strain (see Zeyl C, DeVisser JA: Estimates of the rate and distribution of fitness effects of spontaneous mutation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Genetics 2001, 157:53–61)
