  1. Vortex the yeast culture briefly to resuspend the yeast cells.
  2. Set up seven wells aliquoting 50uL of the stock hydroxychloroquine and 50uL of yeast culture. Use the seventh well for the wild-type yeast strain.
    1. The final concentration of hydroxychloroquine is 300ug/mL.
  3. To measure cell growth over a period of 24 hours, set up the plate reader as follows:
    • Temperature: 30°C
    • Mode: Kinetic
    • Wavelength: 600 nm
    • Interval: 5 minutes
    • Total run time: 24 hours
    • Shake before reading: 30 seconds
  4. Transfer the assay plate to the reader and read for 24 hours.
    • Note: Repeat the experiment a few times to account for natural variation.
