In this study, toxicant-induced stresses of pure compounds were investigated in Saccharomyces cerevisiae utilizing a destabilized version of the green fluorescent protein optimized for expression in yeast (yEGFP3) under control of the promoter of the housekeeping plasma membrane ATPase gene PMA1.
Dose-response experiments were conducted in which yeast cells were exposed in minimal medium and in the presence of 20% fetal calf serum to sublethal concentrations of an array of heavy metals, salt, and a number of stress-inducing compounds (Diclofenac, Lindane, methyl-N-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine [MNNG], hydroxyurea, and caffeine).
