Artificial control of mating type and repeated mating to produce polyploid cells in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Summary: The budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is an excellent model for examining the effects of ploidy. Here, we provide a protocol for producing polyploid cells by creating a basic unit (matΔ) and polyploidizing it via repeated mating. We describe steps for basic unit construction by one-ste...
