Yeast-based functional genomics and proteomic technologies have increased our understanding of bacterial, yeast, fly, worm and human gene functions. In this book, experts in the field offer stand-alone protocols suitable for daily use in research laboratories.

Given the popularity and utility of Saccharomyces cerevisiae , yeast-based functional genomics and proteomics technologies, developed over the past decade, have contributed greatly to our understanding of bacterial, yeast, fly, worm and human gene functions. In Yeast Functional Genomics and Proteomics: Methods and Protocols , experts in the field contribute stand-alone protocols suitable for daily use in research laboratories. The volume examines methods from the most major and fundamental techniques to more cutting-edge, advanced concepts. As part of the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology™ series, the chapters are clearly formatted with introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and notes on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.

Authoritative and easy to use, Yeast Functional Genomics and Proteomics: Methods and Protocols is an ideal reference for both yeast researchers and those who wish to use yeast as a model system for the further study of functional genomics and proteomics.

Covers a wide range of state-of-the-art yeast-based functional genomics and proteomics technologies Provides an easily accessible reference volume for most important yeast-based functional genomics and proteomics technologies written by leading researchers in the field Comprehensive guide to running and analyzing yeast-based assays in functional genomics and proteomics Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
