She made the original strain while Joe Heitman isolated isogenic strains of opposite mating type and derived the a/alpha isogenic diploid by mating type switching. It has in its background S288c, a strain from the Oshima lab, and a strain from the Herskowitz lab. It was chosen because of its robust growth and sporulation, as well as good growth on galactose (GAL+) (so that genes under control of the galactose promoter could be induced). It may also have a SUP mutation that allows translation through premature STOP codons and therefore produces functional alleles with many point mutations. |

− | + | Sigma1278b was first isolated in the lab of Marcelle Grenson in the early 1960s, as described in André B (2018) Tribute to Marcelle Grenson (1925-1996), A Pioneer in the Study of Amino Acid Transport in Yeast. Int J Mol Sci 19(4), PMID:[https://www.yeastgenome.org/reference/S000216588 29659503], which contains the complete, exact pedigree of Σ1278b from the Grenson lab archives. A short excerpt: | |
− | + | "A new, prototrophic reference strain was thus isolated: strain Σ1278b. It was obtained by first crossing the YFa-derived yeast D77 (auxotrophic for uracil and glutamate) with the yeast 1422-11D that was received from the American geneticist Donald C. Hawthorne. The derived haploid strain Σ15d (Σ stands for “segregant”) was then crossed with strain DP1-1B received from Piotr Slonimski, and one of the spores issued from this cross gave rise to Σ1278b." | |
− | + | In September 1970, Grenson sent to Gerry Fink a aap/apf1/shr3 mutant isolated from Σ1278b. This strain, which likely diploidized during successive subculturing, was classified as “Fink lab Foreigner strains, F35”. As detailed in the note provided by the Fink lab, collected Nov. 1998 by Cora Styles, analysis twenty years later of this mutant by C. Gimeno and P. Ljungdahl allowed them to discover pseudohyphal growth : Gimeno, C. J., Ljungdahl, P. O., Styles, C. A., & Fink, G. R. (1992). Unipolar cell divisions in the yeast S. cerevisiae lead to filamentous growth: regulation by starvation and RAS.

− | ''' | + | '''Notes:''' The W303 genome is to 85.4% derived from S288c, part of the other regions are similar to non-S288c regions of Sigma1278b. In total, some 800 CDS differ between W303 and S288c, but in most cases only one or two residues differ [http://rsob.royalsocietypublishing.org/content/2/8/120093].

The provenance of XJ24-24a is unclear. Newlon was able to trace it back about 5 generations: some of the progenitor strains were from the Cold Spring Harbor Yeast course, and some of those strains had some markers similar to S288C (none of which are still in XJ24-24a). <br>''Thanks to Joachim Li for sharing this history of XJ24-24a with SGD.'' |

Latest revision as of 12:32, 13 August 2024
This page describes some of the most commonly used yeast lab strains. Much of the information is taken from F. Sherman (2002) Getting started with yeast, Methods Enzymol. 350, 3-41. Other useful papers for strain background information include:
- Mortimer and Johnston (1986) Genetics 113:35-43 - thoroughly describes the genealogy of strain S288C
- van Dijken et al. (2000) Enzyme Microb Technol 26:706-714 - compares various characteristics of commonly used lab strains
- Winzeler et al. (2003) Genetics 163:79-89 - uses SFP (single-feature polymorphisms) analysis to study genetic identity between common lab strains
Contents
S288C
Genotype: MATα SUC2 gal2 mal2 mel flo1 flo8-1 hap1 ho bio1 bio6
Notes: Strain used in the systematic sequencing project, the sequence stored in SGD. S288C does not form pseudohyphae. In addition, since it has a mutated copy of HAP1, it is not a good strain for mitochondrial studies. It has an allelic variant of MIP1 which increases petite frequency. S288C strains are gal2- and they do not use galactose anaerobically.
The S288C genome was recently resequenced at the Sanger Institute.

BY4743
Genotype: MATa/α his3Δ1/his3Δ1 leu2Δ0/leu2Δ0 LYS2/lys2Δ0 met15Δ0/MET15 ura3Δ0/ura3Δ0
Notes: Strain used in the systematic deletion project, generated from a cross between BY4741 and BY4742, which are derived from S288C. As in S288c, this strain as well as haploid derivatives BY4741, and BY4742 have allelic variants of MIP1, SAL1 and CAT5 and these polymorphisms, described in the respective locus history notes for these genes (MIP1, SAL1 and CAT5) all contribute to the high observed petite frequency. Details regarding the contributions of these variants to petite formation are referenced in Dimitrov et al. (2009) Genetics 183(1):365-83. See the Brachmann et al., 1998 reference for details of strain construction.

Notes: JK9-3d was constructed by Jeanette Kunz while in Mike Hall's lab. She made the original strain while Joe Heitman isolated isogenic strains of opposite mating type and derived the a/alpha isogenic diploid by mating type switching. It has in its background S288c, a strain from the Oshima lab, and a strain from the Herskowitz lab. It was chosen because of its robust growth and sporulation, as well as good growth on galactose (GAL+) (so that genes under control of the galactose promoter could be induced). It may also have a SUP mutation that allows translation through premature STOP codons and therefore produces functional alleles with many point mutations.
Recent work shows that JK9-3d carries an rme1 mutation that may be responsible for the rapid G1 arrest of this strain upon exposure to rapamycin (Moreno-Torres M, et al. (2015) Nat Commun 6:8256)

RM11-1a
Genotype: MATa leu2Δ0 ura3-Δ0 HO::kanMX
Notes: RM11-1a is a haploid derivative of RM11, which is a diploid derivative of Bb32(3), which is an ascus derived from Bb32, which is a natural isolate collected by Robert Mortimer from a California vineyard (Ravenswood Zinfandel) in 1993, as in Mortimer et al. (1994). It has high spore viability (80–90%) and has been extensively characterized phenotypically under a wide range of conditions. It has a significantly longer life span than typical lab yeast strains and accumulates age-associated abnormalities at a lower rate. It displays approximately 0.5–1% sequence divergence relative to S288c. More information is available at the Broad Institute website.

Sigma1278b
Genotype: MATα
Sigma1278b was first isolated in the lab of Marcelle Grenson in the early 1960s, as described in André B (2018) Tribute to Marcelle Grenson (1925-1996), A Pioneer in the Study of Amino Acid Transport in Yeast. Int J Mol Sci 19(4), PMID:29659503, which contains the complete, exact pedigree of Σ1278b from the Grenson lab archives. A short excerpt:
"A new, prototrophic reference strain was thus isolated: strain Σ1278b. It was obtained by first crossing the YFa-derived yeast D77 (auxotrophic for uracil and glutamate) with the yeast 1422-11D that was received from the American geneticist Donald C. Hawthorne. The derived haploid strain Σ15d (Σ stands for “segregant”) was then crossed with strain DP1-1B received from Piotr Slonimski, and one of the spores issued from this cross gave rise to Σ1278b."
In September 1970, Grenson sent to Gerry Fink a aap/apf1/shr3 mutant isolated from Σ1278b. This strain, which likely diploidized during successive subculturing, was classified as “Fink lab Foreigner strains, F35”. As detailed in the note provided by the Fink lab, collected Nov. 1998 by Cora Styles, analysis twenty years later of this mutant by C. Gimeno and P. Ljungdahl allowed them to discover pseudohyphal growth : Gimeno, C. J., Ljungdahl, P. O., Styles, C. A., & Fink, G. R. (1992). Unipolar cell divisions in the yeast S. cerevisiae lead to filamentous growth: regulation by starvation and RAS. Cell, 68(6), 1077–1090, PMID:1547504.
Thanks to Bruno André for contacting SGD directly to share and disseminate this information.
Notes: Used in pseudohyphal growth studies. Detailed notes about the sigma strains have been kindly provided by Cora Styles.
Granek and Magwene, PLoS Genet. 2010 Jan 22;6(1):e1000823, established that certain lineages of the Sigma1278B background contain a nonsense mutation in RIM15, a G-to-T transversion at position 1216 that converts a Gly codon to an opal stop codon. This rim15 mutation interacts epistatically with mutations in certain other genes to affect colony morphology. The Sigma1278b genome is closely related to S288c, and shares some other genomic regions with W303 [1].
Annotation of the Sigma1278b genome and information about the systematic deletion collection can be found in Dowell et al. (2010).

Notes: The W303 genome is to 85.4% derived from S288c, part of the other regions are similar to non-S288c regions of Sigma1278b. In total, some 800 CDS differ between W303 and S288c, but in most cases only one or two residues differ [2]. These include a bud4 mutation that causes haploids to bud with a mixture of axial and bipolar budding patterns. In addition, the original W303 strain contains the rad5-535 allele. As S288c, W303 has an allelic variant of MIP1 which increases petite frequency. Unlike S288C, W303 lacks a functional copy of the RNA-binding protein and translational repressor, Ssd1 [3], [4],[5].
The W303 genome was sequenced at the Sanger Institute and by Ralser M. et al. (2012) Open Biol 2: 120093. 1 (DDBJ/EMBL/GenBank ALAV00000000).

XJ24-24a
Genotype: MATa ho HMa HMα ade6 arg4-17 trp1-1 tyr7-1 MAL2
Notes: Likely quite different from S288C. A strain derived from XJ24-24a called XG1#24 had a recombination between HML and MAT that generated a large ring chromosome (Strathern et al. 1979 Cell), and Carol Newlon generated an ordered map of plasmid sub clones from this ring chromosome (Newlon et al. 1991 Genetics) that was then used for the initial sequencing of Chromosome III (Oliver et al. 1992), which has since been updated numerous times. The provenance of XJ24-24a is unclear. Newlon was able to trace it back about 5 generations: some of the progenitor strains were from the Cold Spring Harbor Yeast course, and some of those strains had some markers similar to S288C (none of which are still in XJ24-24a).

Y55
Genotype: MATa /MATalpha HO/HO
Notes: Y55 is a prototrophic, homothallic diploid strain that was originally isolated by Dennis Winge. Many auxotrophic mutant derivatives have been created by John McCusker by using ethidium bromide treatment to eliminate non-auxotrophs. Y55 background strains have been used to study the timing of meiotic recombination (Borts et al. 1984); to isolate almost all the subunits of the proteasome (McCusker and Haber 1988a, 1988b); to get mutations in PMA1 and related genes (McCusker 1986); and to do meiotic mapping and interference experiments (Malkova et al. 2004).
