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
