Recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae Uncharacterized protein YGL230C (YGL230C) is a protein derived from the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, also known as Baker's yeast . YGL230C is considered an uncharacterized protein, meaning its specific function within the yeast cell is not yet fully understood . Despite being uncharacterized, research indicates its presence and potential roles in various cellular processes .
Source Organism: Saccharomyces cerevisiae (strain 204508 / S288c) .
Applications: May be used in ELISA (EIA) and WB (Western Blot) assays to identify the antigen .
YGL230C is encoded by the YGL230C gene in Saccharomyces cerevisiae . The Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome has been extensively studied, with the strain S288c serving as the reference genome for the Saccharomyces Genome Database . Whole-genome sequencing efforts have identified single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and other genetic variations that differentiate various S. cerevisiae strains, which can lead to different phenotypes .
Saccharomyces cerevisiae, including recombinant forms, has been explored for its potential in oral immunization . For instance, S. cerevisiae has been engineered to express the capsid protein VP2 of the infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) to develop an oral vaccine . In such applications, the recombinant protein's expression is often controlled by constitutive promoters like GAPDH .
