Week 1 (4-10)

Module 2

PCR of the ste2 gene from the genome of Saccharomyces cerevisiae 7284 strain (Genome extraction, PCR, Gel electrophoresis).

Cloning of the amplified ste2 into pRSII416 vector (Restriction digest, Ligation, Transformation).

Verification of the pRSII416_ste2 construct (Miniprep, Restriction digest, Gel electrophoresis).

Summary: We successfully obtained ste2 gene from the yeast genome and cloned it into pRSII416 vector.

Week 2 (11-17)

Module 2

PCR of the incomplete MF(ALPHA)1 locus (see the Design page for details) from the genome of Saccharomyces cerevisiae 7283 strain (Genome extraction, PCR, Gel electrophoresis).

Czech Republic M2 AlphaF1.png

Band-stab PCR of the amplified incomplete MF(ALPHA)1 locus in order to add the actual pheromone and a stop codon.

Cloning of the obtained pheromone into pRSII416 vector (Restriction digest, Ligation, Transformation).

Verification of the pRSII416_sc_alpha construct (Miniprep, Restriction digest, Gel electrophoresis).

Summary: We successfully obtained mating pheromone from Saccharomyces cerevisiae with its secretion tag and cloned it into pRSII416 vector. We also prepared pCUP1 promoter for the cloning upstream of this pheromone.

Week 3 (18-24)

Module 2

PCR amplification of pGAL1 promoter from the genome of Saccharomyces cerevisiae 7284 strain (PCR, Gel electrophoresis).
