  7. Alternate Mechanism: The FEAR Pathway Milap Thaker - Graduate Proseminar - Molecular and Cellular Biology

  8. MEN VS. FEAR: Specific Temporal Differences Milap Thaker - Graduate Proseminar - Molecular and Cellular Biology

  9. Materials and Methods • Yeast Strains grown in YPD (standard yeast-extract-peptone-dextrose) medium • Arrested in G1 by 5 µg/ml α-factor • After 2 hours, washed 2x with water • Cytology: Cells fixed with 3.7% formaldehyde for 5 min at RT, then washed twice with PBS buffer (phosphate buffered saline) and resuspended in PBS Milap Thaker - Graduate Proseminar - Molecular and Cellular Biology

  10. DAPI Staining Technique • Cells fixed with 100% MeOH at -20 Celsius for 30 mins. • Cells pelleted, resuspended in DAPI at a final concentration of 2.5µg/ml for 1 min at RT • Cells finally resuspended in 1X PBS • Fluorescence microscopy used to examine GFP and DNA Milap Thaker - Graduate Proseminar - Molecular and Cellular Biology

  11. Protein Techniques For Immunoprecipitation, cells harvested (50 ml) and protein extracts are prepared with RIPA RIPA = Radioimmunoprecipitation Assay Incubated with Anti-HA (hemagglutinin) antibody Washed in SDS (sodium dodecyl sulfate) protein-loading buffer Boiled 5 mins, resolved with 8% SDS gel

  35. Men & Fear: Proposed Mechanism Milap Thaker - Graduate Proseminar - Molecular and Cellular Biology

  36. Master Conclusion Set (2) • Rad53 key player in mitotic exit prevention • This is because cdc13-1, rad53021 mutants exhibited cdc14 release • Rad 53 kinase known to phosphorylate Dun1 directly, known activator of Dun1 • Dun1 plays a more direct role in regulating MEN than Rad53 (downstream) • Authors contend possibility that Dun1 kinase phosphorylates Bfa1 and prevents Bfa1/Tem1 dissociation. • Support: Less Bfa1-Tem1 complex in Rad53-21 when DNA damaged Milap Thaker - Graduate Proseminar - Molecular and Cellular Biology
