IRE1-dependent transcriptional change under a canonical endoplasmic-reticulum stressing stimulus and upon diauxic shift in Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells

Ire1 is an endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-located transmembrane protein that triggers the unfolded protein response. I recently noticed that Ire1 is activated not only in response to ER accumulation of unfolded proteins but also alongside diauxic shift in yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells. I thus asked how different the Ire1-target genes upon two distinct scenes, a canonical ER -stressing stimuli and diauxic shift. Thus NGS transcriptome analysis was performed by using IRE1+ and ire1-delta mutant yeast cells under these conditions.
