Some yeast strains are unstable (e. g., small YAC-bearing strains) and need to be repurified by streaking on an agar plate and then verifying the genetic content of the isolated colony before proceeding. In cases where the strain is unstable, plan to streak the cells onto the selective medium to retain the desired stock, (however, most strains can be streaked onto the complete medium, YPD). - [Read Streaking Yeast Stocks Protocols]
This protocol describes dissection of yeast tetrads. Tetrad analysis is useful for linkage studies and for constructing strains for genetic and biochemical experiments. - [Read Tetrad Dissection Protocol]
This protocol a protocol on how to generate transfected embryonic stem (ES) cell clones. The previous protocol in this series is the Protocol for Electroporation of ES cells. The next protocol in the series is the Protocol on Disaggregation, Expansion, and Freezing of Transfected ES Clones.
The protocol gives general considerations for the design of targeting vectors for transgenic mice. The protocol shares tips in the design of knock-out and knock-in vectors and some of their strategies for producing homologously recombined embryonic stem cells.
