Abstract

During the last few years, the global transcription machinery engineering (gTME) technique has gained more attention as an effective approach for the construction of novel mutants. Genetic strategies (molecular biology methods) were utilized to get mutational for both genes (SPT15 and TAF23) basically existed in the Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome via screening the gTME approach in order to obtain a new mutant S. cerevisiae diploid strain. The vector pYX212 was utilized to transform these genes into the control diploid strain S. cerevisiae through the process of mating between haploids control strains S. cerevisiae (MAT-a [CICC 1374]) and (MAT-α [CICC 31144]), by using the oligonucleotide primers SPT15-EcoRI-FW/SPT15-SalI-RV and TAF23-SalI-FW/TAF23-NheI-RV, respectively. The resultant mutants were examined for a series of stability tests. This study showed how strong the effect of using strategic gTME with the importance of the modification we conducted in Error Prone PCR protocol by increasing MnCl2 concentration instead of MgCl2. More than ninety mutants we obtained in this study were distinguished by a high level production of bio-ethanol as compared to the diploid control strain.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 03 June 2017.
All research outputs
#15,462,982
of 22,977,819 outputs
Outputs from AMB Express
#446
of 1,239 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#199,459
of 317,446 outputs
Outputs of similar age from AMB Express
#39
of 72 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,977,819 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 22nd percentile – i.e., 22% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,239 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 2.8. This one is in the 40th percentile – i.e., 40% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 317,446 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 28th percentile – i.e., 28% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 72 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 5th percentile – i.e., 5% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
