Project description:The main objective was to identify genes regulated after the BY4742 yeast cells were exposed to 0.125% for 5 or 10 min. The experiment was further valited by microbiological assays.
Project description:Reprogramming a non-methylotrophic industrial host, such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae, to a synthetic methylotroph reprents a huge challenge due to the complex regulation in yeast. Through TMC strategy together with ALE strategy, we completed a strict synthetic methylotrophic yeast that could use methanol as the sole carbon source. However, how cells respond to methanol and remodel cellular metabolic network on methanol were not clear. Therefore, genome-scale transcriptional analysis was performed to unravel the cellular reprograming mechanisms underlying the improved growth phenotype.
