were derived from BY4741 (MATa ura3delta0 leu2delta0 his3delta1 met15delta0)
or BY4742 (MATalpha ura3delta0 leu2delta0 his3delta1 lys2delta0)
Conditions Detailed protocols for cultures grown in YPD or SC medium are

Long Description Genome-wide transcript profiling was used to monitor signal transduction during
yeast pheromone response. Genetic manipulations allowed analysis of changes in
gene expression underlying pheromone signaling, cell cycle control, and polarized
morphogenesis. A two-dimensional hierarchical clustered matrix, covering 383 of
the most highly regulated genes, was constructed from 46 diverse experimental
conditions. Diagnostic subsets of coexpressed genes reflected signaling activity, cross
talk, and overlap of multiple MAPK pathways. Analysis of the profiles specified by
two different MAPKs, Fus3p and Kss1p, revealed functional overlap of the
filamentous growth and mating responses. Global transcript analysis reflects
biological responses associated with the activation and perturbation of signal
transduction pathways.

Notes on Greek letters in Measure Names:

The EXCEL spreadsheet the authors provided for this data series included many cases of Delta
and alpha in its column headings. When the information was dumped into a tab delimited file
to be loaded into this database, EXCEL represented each Delta with a 'D' and each alpha with
an 'a'. Every 'D' given in strain genotype symbols in these names is really an uppercase
Delta, for example, 'bni1D' is actually 'bni1Delta'.
Many of the 'a' characters in the measure names are actually alpha characters. In every case
where'aF' is given, it is actually alphaF. Other uses of 'a', including 'a-Factor' and 'MATa'
really are the letter 'a' and not a replacement for 'alpha'
