Long Description Abstract - Ascertaining the impact of uncharacterized perturbations on the cell is a fundamental
problem in biology. Here, we describe how a single assay can be used to monitor hundreds
of different cellular functions simultaneously. We constructed a reference database or
"compendium" of expression profiles corresponding to 300 diverse mutations and chemical
treatments in S. cerevisiae, and we show that the cellular pathways affected can be
determined by pattern matching, even among very subtle profiles. The utility of this
approach is validated by examining profiles caused by deletions of uncharacterized genes:
we identify and experimentally confirm that eight previously uncharacterized open reading
frames encode proteins required for sterol metabolism, cell wall function, mitochondrial
respiration, or protein synthesis. We also show that the compendium can be used to
characterize pharmacological perturbations by identifying a previously unknown target of
the commonly used drug dyclonine.
