Dynamical Remodeling of the Transcriptome during Short-Term Anaerobiosis in Saccharomyces cerevisiae: Differential Response and Role of Msn2 and/or Msn4 and Other Factors in Galactose and Glucose Media† Liang-Chuan Lai,1 Alexander L.

In contrast to previous steady-state analyses of the O2-responsive transcriptome, here we examined the dynamics of the response to short-term anaerobiosis (2 generations) in both catabolite-repressed (glucose) and derepressed (galactose) cells, assessed the specific role that Msn2 and Msn4 play in mediating the response, and identified gene networks using a novel clustering approach. Upon shifting cells to anaerobic conditions in galactose medium, there was an acute (⬃10 min) yet transient (
