A major challenge in the post-genomic era is the development of experimental approaches to monitor the properties of proteins on a proteome-wide level. It would be particularly useful to...
Maya Schuldiner, Sean R. Collins, Natalie J. Thompson, Vladimir Denic, Arunashree Bhamidipati, Thanuja Punna, ...
We present a strategy for generating and analyzing comprehensive genetic-interaction maps, termed E-MAPs (epistatic miniarray profiles), comprising quantitative measures of aggravating or alleviating...

Mechanism of Prion Propagation: Amyloid Growth Occurs by Monomer Addition (2004)
Sean R. Collins, Adam Douglass, Ronald D. Vale, Jonathan S. Weissman
Polymerization of the amyloidogenic yeast prion protein Sup35 occurs by monomer addition in a reaction distinct from formation of potentially toxic oligomeric intermediates.
Mechanism of Prion Propagation: Amyloid Growth Occurs by Monomer Addition (2004)
Sean R. Collins, Adam Douglass, Ronald D. Vale, Jonathan S. Weissman
Abundant nonfibrillar oligomeric intermediates are a common feature of amyloid formation, and these oligomers, rather than the final fibers, have been suggested to be the toxic species in some...
Dissection and Design of Yeast Prions (2004)
Lev Z. Osherovich, Brian S. Cox, Mick F. Tuite, Jonathan S. Weissman
Artificial prions - infectious, misfolded proteins - can be created by fusing the replication element of one prion to aggregation sequences from another.
Dissection and Design of Yeast Prions (2004)
Lev Z. Osherovich, Brian S. Cox, Mick F. Tuite, Jonathan S. Weissman
Many proteins can misfold into β-sheet-rich, self-seeding polymers (amyloids). Prions are exceptional among such aggregates in that they are also infectious. In fungi, prions are not pathogenic but...

roarrays. Rather than (Cox and Walter, 1996; Mori et al., 1996; Sidrauski et al., 1996; Sidrauski and Walter, 1997), and ultimately regulating only ER-resident chaperones and phospholipid...
Michelitsch, Melissa D., Weissman, Jonathan S.
Glutamine/asparagine (Q/N)-rich domains have a high propensity to form self-propagating amyloid fibrils. This phenomenon underlies both prion-based inheritance in yeast and aggregation of a number of...
GroEL-GroES-mediated protein folding requires an intact central cavity
Wang, Jue D., Michelitsch, Melissa D., Weissman, Jonathan S.
The chaperonin GroEL is an oligomeric double ring structure that, together with the cochaperonin GroES, assists protein folding. Biochemical analyses indicate that folding occurs in a cis ternary...

A strategy for extracting and analyzing large-scale quantitative epistatic interaction data
Collins, Sean R, Schuldiner, Maya, Krogan, Nevan J, Weissman, Jonathan S
A new technique for analysis of data from synthetic genetic array and E-MAP technology generates high confidence quantitative epistasis scores.
Backup without redundancy: genetic interactions reveal the cost of duplicate gene loss
Ihmels, Jan, Collins, Sean R, Schuldiner, Maya, Krogan, Nevan J, Weissman, Jonathan S
Many genes can be deleted with little phenotypic consequences. By what mechanism and to what extent the presence of duplicate genes in the genome contributes to this robustness against deletions has...
CCR4/NOT complex associates with the proteasome and regulates histone methylation
Laribee, R. Nicholas, Shibata, Yoichiro, Mersman, Douglas P., Collins, Sean R., Kemmeren, Patrick, Roguev, Assen, ...
The proteasome regulates histone lysine methylation and gene transcription, but how it does so is poorly understood. To better understand this process, we used the epistatic miniarray profile (E-MAP)...
Oxidative protein folding in eukaryotes: mechanisms and consequences
Tu, Benjamin P., Weissman, Jonathan S.
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) provides an environment that is highly optimized for oxidative protein folding. Rather than relying on small molecule oxidants like glutathione, it is now clear that...
