Understanding the mechanism of heat stress tolerance caused by high trehalose accumulation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae using DNA microarray
DNA microarray analysis was performed to examine the stress tolerance mechanism of a Saccharomyces cerevisiae recombinant strain exhibiting high trehalose accumulation and heat stress tolerance. Results suggest that the upregulation of sugar transporter genes is one of the key events for heat stress tolerance of the recombinant strain. (C) 2011, The Society for Biotechnology, Japan.
