Characterization of the yeast transcriptome
Yeast genes which are differentially expressed during the cell cycle are described. They can be used to study, affect, and monitor the cell cycle of a eukaryotic cell. They can be used to obtain human homologs involved in cell cycle regulation. They can be used to identify antifungal agents and other classes of drugs. They can be formed into arrays on solid supports for interrogation of a cell's transcriptome under various conditions.
1. An array of probes on a solid support for detecting gene expression, wherein at least one probe comprises at least 18 contiguous nucleotides of SEQ ID NO:12,223 (NORF 5), wherein the array comprises at least 100 probes, wherein each of the at least 100 probes has a sequence that is different from each other sequence.
2. The array of claim 1 which comprises at least 500 probes, wherein each of the at least 500 probes has a sequence that is different from each other sequence.
3. The array of claim 1 which comprises at least 1,000 probes, wherein each of the at least 1,000 probes has a sequence that is different from each other sequence.
4. An array of probes on a solid support for detecting gene expression, wherein at least one probe comprises at least 25 contiguous nucleotides of SEQ ID NO:12,223 (NORF 5).
5. An array of probes on a solid support for detecting gene expression, wherein at least one probe consists of at least 18 contiguous nucleotides of SEQ ID NO:12,223 (NORF 5), wherein the array comprises at least 100 probes, wherein each of the at least 100 probes has a sequence that is different from each other sequence.
6. The array of claim 5 which comprises at least 500 probes, wherein each of the at least 500 probes has a sequence that is different from each other sequence.
7. The array of claim 5 which comprises at least 1,000 probes, wherein each of the at least 1,000 probes has a sequence that is different from each other sequence.
8. An array of probes on a solid support for detecting gene expression, wherein at least one probe consists of at least 25 contiguous nucleotides of SEQ ID NO:12,223 (NORF 5).
