Long Description Abstract from reference: We used genome-wide expression
analysis to explore how gene expression in Saccharomyces cerevisiae is
remodeled in response to various changes in extracellular environment,
including changes in temperature, oxidation, nutrients, pH, and
osmolarity. The results demonstrate that more than half of the genome
is involved in various responses to environmental change and identify
the global set of genes induced and repressed by each condition. These
data implicate a substantial number of previously uncharacterized
genes in these responses and reveal a signature common to
environmental responses that involves ~10% of yeast genes. The results
of expression analysis with MSN2/MSN4 mutants support the model that
the Msn2/Msn4 activators induce the common response to environmental
change. These results provide a global description of the
transcriptional response to environmental change and extend our
understanding of the role of activators in effecting this response.
