Using Models to (Re-)Design Synthetic Circuits.

Author(s): McCallum G, Potvin-Trottier L

Mathematical models play an important role in the design of synthetic gene circuits, by guiding the choice of biological components and their assembly into novel gene networks. Here, we present a guide for biologists to build and utilize models of gene netw...

Metabolomic and lipidomic analyses of chronologically aging yeast.

Abstract

Metabolomic and lipidomic analyses of yeast cells provide comprehensive empirical datasets for unveiling mechanisms underlying complex biological processes. In this chapter, we describe detailed protocols for using such analyses to study the age-related dynamics of changes in intracellular and extracellular levels of various metabolites and membrane lipids in chronologically aging yeast. The protocols for the following high-throughput analyses are described: (1) microanalytic biochemical assays for monitoring intracellular concentrations of trehalose and glycogen; (2) gas chromatographic quantitative assessment of extracellular concentrations of ethanol and acetic acid; and (3) mass spectrometric identification and quantitation of the entire complement of cellular lipids. These protocols are applicable to the exploration of the metabolic patterns associated not only with aging but also with many other vital processes in yeast. The described here methodology complements the powerful genetic approaches available for mechanistic studies of fundamental aspects of yeast biology.
