Abstract excerpt
Pichia pastoris has proven to be a valuable model for examining the molecular events of the selective degradation of peroxisomes by a process called pexophagy. We have developed a protocol to rapidly identify genes essential for glucose-induced pexophagy. This method utilizes the random integration of a Zeocin resistance cassette vector into the genomic DNA thereby disrupting gene expression. Transformed yeast...
