Wild‐type Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells (BY4742, MATalpha his3Δ1 leu2Δ0 lys2Δ0 ura3Δ0; ThermoFisher Scientific, Slangerup, Denmark), pda1Δ (BY4742, pda1::KanMX; ThermoFisher Scientific), and cit1Δ (BY4742, cit1::KanMX; Open Biosystems) were cultured in synthetic complete media (US Biological, Salem, MA, USA) supplemented with 12C614N2‐lysine (SILAC “light”) or 13C615N2‐lysine (SILAC “heavy”). Cells were harvested at the indicated time points, washed once with sterile H2O, and resuspended in lysis buffer (50 mM Tris, pH7.5, 150 mM NaCl, 1 mM EDTA, 1x mini complete protease inhibitor cocktail (Roche, Basel, Switzerland), 5 mM sodium fluoride, 1 mM sodium orthovanadate, 5 mM beta‐glycerophosphate, 10 mM nicotinamide, and 5 μM tricostatin A) at ~50 OD600 cells/ml lysis buffer. The cell suspension was frozen drop‐wise in liquid nitrogen and ground in a liquid nitrogen chilled steel container by the Retsch MM 400 Ball Mill (Retsch, Haan, Germany) for 5 min at 25 Hz. The lysate was thawed, NP‐40 and sodium deoxycholate were added to a final concentration of 1 and 0.1%, respectively, and clarified by centrifugation. The lysate supernatent was precipitated with four volumes −20°C acetone. The acetone precipitate was dissolved in urea solution (6 M urea, 2 M thio‐urea, 10 mM Hepes pH8.0) and protein concentration determined by Quick‐Start Bradford assay (Bio‐Rad, Copenhagen, Denmark).

The yeast strains used for phenotypic analysis in this study were the wild-type S. cerevisiae strain BY4742 (MATα his3Δ1; leu2Δ0; lys2Δ0; ura3Δ0) (Open Biosystems, Huntsville, AL, USA), S. boulardii Sb.P (van der Aa and Jespersen 2003 (link)), Enterol S. boulardii—a strain isolated from food supplement (CNCM I-745 commercial Enterol® strain, Biocodex, Warszawa, Poland), and evolutionary engineered strains of CNCM I-745 Enterol S. boulardii ev16 and ev17 (KMUTT, Bangkok, Thailand). The yeast strains were routinely grown in yeast extract-peptone-dextrose (YPD) medium containing 1% yeast extract, 2% Bacto peptone, and 2% dextrose. Meanwhile, the evolution experiment was performed in YPD with an increasing concentration of acetic acid, adjusted to pH 4.5 with HCl or 4 M KOH.

S. cerevisiae strain NRRL Y-12632 (Agricultural Research Service Culture Collection, Peoria, IL, USA) was maintained and cultured on a synthetic complete medium. Nonessential haploid S. cerevisiae deletion mutations generated by the Saccharomyces Genome Deletion Project and the parental strain BY4742 (MATα his3Δ1 leu2Δ0 lys2Δ0 ura3Δ0) were obtained from Open Biosystems (Huntsville, AL). BY4742 is a designed deletion strain directly derived from Saccharomyces cerevisiae S288C, which is widely selected as parent strains for the international systematic Saccharomyces cerevisiae gene disruption project48 (link).
Freshly grown cells harvested at logarithmic growth phase were used as inoculate after 16 h incubation with agitation of 250 rpm at 30°C. Cells were incubated on SC medium using a flask fermentation system at 30°C as previously described15 (link).

Yeast Stress Response Evaluation

The parental wild-type strain BY4742 (MATα his3Δ1 ura3Δ0 leu2Δ0 lys2Δ0) and its isogenic knockout mutants (gcn2Δ and hsp104Δ) were purchased from Open Biosystems. The double knockout mutant fes1Δhsp104Δ, which is also isogenic to BY4742, was established as previously described (10 (link)). Yeast cells were cultured in synthetic defined (SD) medium (2% glucose, 0.67% yeast nitrogen base w/o amino acids, 20 mg/L uracil, 30 mg/L L-lysine HCl, 100 mg/L L-leucine, and 20 mg/L L-histidine HCl) with reciprocal shaking (120 rpm) at 28 °C, and exponentially growing cells were harvested at OD600 of 0.5 to 0.6. Stress treatment procedures have been previously described (10 (link)). To determine cell proliferation activity, cells subjected to severe ethanol stress in SD medium were diluted, plated on YPD plates (2% glucose, 1% yeast extract, 2% peptone, and 2% agar), and incubated at 28 °C for 48 h. The number of colonies formed on YPD plates was counted to calculate CFU. Propidium iodide (PI) staining was performed using the method described by Davey and Hexley (79 (link)).

Propagation and Validation of Yeast Strains

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Yeast strains were propagated at 26°C using established methods, and media preparation and transformations were performed as previously published unless otherwise noted [55 ]. The WT yeast strain was BY4742. The BY4742 and Δlhs1 strains were obtained from Open Biosystems (Thermo Scientific). The absence of Lhs1 in the Δlhs1 strain was confirmed by western blot analysis and by phenotypes associated with the loss of this protein [46 (link)].

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
