Purpose: | Quantify expression of Saccharomyces cerevisiae TDH3 promoter variants. | ||||
Conclusion: | Natural selection on gene expression noise has had a greater impact on TDH3 natural variation than selection on mean expression level. | ||||
Comments: | All samples were revived from glycerol stocks on the same day to control for age related effects on expression. Samples were grown in YFP and run in SC-R liquid media. | ||||
