Project description:Samples GSM206658-GSM206693: Acquired Stress resistance in S. cerevisiae: NaCl primary and H2O2 secondary Transcriptional timecourses of yeast cells exposed to 0.7M NaCl alone, 0.5mM H2O2 alone, or 0.5mM H2O2 following 0.7M NaCl, all compared to an unstressed sample. Repeated using msn2∆ strain. Samples GSM291156-GSM291196: Transcriptional response to stress in strains lacking MSN2 and/or MSN4 Transcriptional timecourses of yeast cells (WT, msn2∆, msn4∆, or msn2∆msn4∆) exposed to 0.7M NaCl for 45 minutes or 30-37˚C Heat Shift for 15 min compared to an unstressed sample of the same strain. Keywords: Stress Response
Project description:Yeast cells can be affected during their growth to several stress conditions. One of the most known and characterised is the osmotic stress and most of the studies about osmotic sterss response in yeast have been focused on salt or sorbitol stress. However, during yeast growth in industrially relevant processes (for instance throughout alcoholic fermentation on the must to produce alcoholic beverages) the osmotic stress is mainly due to the high sugar(in particular glucose) concentration (200-250 g/L).
Project description:Oxidative stress is a harmful condition in a cell, tissue, or organ, caused by an imbalnace between reactive oxygen species and other oxidants and the capacity of antioxidant defense systems to remove them. The budding yeast S. cerevisiae has been the major eukaryotic model for studies of response to oxidative stress. We used microarrays to study the genome-wide temporal response of the yeast S. cerevisiae to oxidative stress induced by cumene hydroperoxide. Keywords: time course

Project description:Stress responses to DNA damaging agents show characteristic responses. The effect of Azinomycin B upon cultured yeast cells in growth conditions appears to be significant. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression induced in the stress response to Azinomycin B. Keywords: stress response
