The Yeast Culture Program aims to:

Conduct studies to reveal new genetic and biochemical factors with regard to cell sensitivity and resistance to different antineoplasic drugs;
Identify new molecular targets and their particular molecules in basic and medical research projects.

Services

Yeast haploid mutant tiling intended for studies on antineoplasic drug tolerance such as bleomycin.
Dissection of yeast tetrads with deletion combinations of genes that are specific to antineoplasic drug resistance.
Analysis on intracellular distribution of antineoplasic drugs previously marked in tissue biopsies.
Validation of the different multiple gene expression profiles (about 30) in a single sample.
Purification of proteins and of selected protein complexes.
