The table above shows the number of cells with YKL162C removed that were counted as dead out of 100 counted cells. We found that in all trials compared to the control there was in increase in cell death.  With the YKL162C gene removed nearly all cells died when incubated for 48 hours in 2% Glucose. This knockout may intrigue further research into basic cell viability as a result of the statistical significance.

Analysis

The graph displayed above shows the results of a viability assay of a YKL162C knockout strain as compared to BY4735 (wild type) and other knockout strains. This knockout strain was found to have overall more cell death than all other strains assayed. With the YKL162C gene removed nearly all cells died when incubated for 48 hours in 2% Glucose. There appears to be a significant associated death rate in glucose solution for this strain as compared to BY4735. Perhaps, YKL162C is of more biological importance in the BY4735 wild type than previously thought. Further research should consider why this knockout strain had complete glucose-induced apoptosis, as well as higher overall cell death rate, as compared to the other strains tested in this study.

Analysis

These results were what was expected and all 3 were consistent throughout the trials. Although there was less growth than the control group, it could mean that the cell is more sensitive to the isopropanol with the gene knocked out. In the third trial there was a little bit of spiking towards the end around 15:20-18:00 but other than that it was a good growth curve.

Analysis

The general trend of our data yielded a negative relationship between time of heat shock. About half of the yeast cells died off in a matter of 135 seconds at 40 degrees Celsius. The YKL162C yeast were dying off at a faster rate over time compared to the Wild Yeast strain. This means that the gene that was knocked out in the YKL162C yeast could have cause some resistance to heat shock.

Bases

Analysis

As you can see there was clearly an error with the A11 sample of yeast 3. The other two samples showed less growth than the Wild Type yeast, A1 A2 A3, over the 24 hour time period. This knockout gene likely did not aid in basic pH environmental growth.
