Background Information on Purpose of Experiment

  • Low temperatures are known to have several effects on biochemical and physiological properties in various cells
  • Cold shock proteins are induced when cells are exposed to low temperatures in order to cope with the drastic change in environment
  • In yeast, the NSR1, TIP1, and OLE1 genes have been identified as important cold-inducible genes through past research
  • low temperature-dependent gene expression and low temperature response are still unclear
  • The purpose of this experiment is to analyze global gene expression in low temperature-exposed yeast cells using a yeast cDNA microarray to obtain fundamental information on low temperature response and low temperature-dependent gene expression in yeast cells

Cold shock and microarray procedures of yeast samples

  • S. cerevisiae YPH500 was used for all the analyses
  • Cultured aerobically in YPD medium (yeast extract, peptone, and glucose) at 30°C and shaken at 100 rpm
  • 50 ml of the culture were collected for a reference time of 0
  • Cells flash-frozen in liquid nitrogen
  • Stored at -80°C in preparation for RNA
  • The remaining cells were cold shocked at 10°C then cultured at the same temperature
  • Cells collected at 0.25, 0.5, 2, 4, and 8 hours after the cold shock
  • Cells flash-frozen in liquid nitrogen
  • Stored at -80°C in preparation for RNA
  • Cy3-dUTP and Cy5-dUTP were used as cDNA probes
  • Labeled with fluorophore in order to carry out microarray hybridization
  • Microarray hybridization performed based on the manual for S. cerevisiae cDNA microarray
  • Microarrays were scanned by laser microscope
  • Process repeated twice
  • Averaged the expression ratios of the separate experiments for final data
  • Images analyzed by computer program
  • Data analyzed by analysis software
  • Fluorescence intensities were normalized
  • Data was clustered and referred to the Munich Information Center for Protein Sequences functional database
