Grow on 5-FOA Gene 1 knockout Gene 2 knockout Gene 1 knockout
Overview: Use of double knockout yeast strains to analyze genetic interactions by plasmid shuffle Transform double knockout strain with LEU2 and HIS3 plasmids with gene mutations (Protocol 1) ARS CEN LEU2 Mutant Gene 1 HIS3 Mutant Gene 2 URA3 Gene 1 Gene 1 knockout Gene 2 knockout Gene 1 knockout Gene 2 knockout URA3 ARS CEN Gene 1 Gene 2 Grow on 5-FOA ARS CEN LEU2 Mutant Gene 1 ARS CEN HIS3 Mutant Gene 2 Outcome: System to analyze genetic interactions between essential splicing factors Questions answered: Do two splicing factors interact genetically? Can one mutation suppress the phenotype of another mutation? Can reveal mechanisms of core splicing factors
