Strain and Maintenance This study was performed with the prototrophic laboratory strain S. cerevisiae CEN.PK113-7D (MATa) [van Dijken, J. P., Bauer, J., Brambilla, L., Duboc, P., Francois, J. M., Gancedo, C., Giuseppin, M. L. F., Heinen, J. J., Hoare, M., Lange, H. C., Madden, E. A., Niederberger, P., Nielsen, J., Parrou, J.

Growth protocol
Chemostat Cultivation Steady-state chemostat cultures were grown in Applikon laboratory fermentors of 1-liter working volume as described in detail elsewhere [van den Berg, M. A., de Jong-Gubbels, P., Kortland, C. J., van Dijken, J. P., Pronk, J. T., and Steensma, H. Y. (1996) J. Biol. Chem. 271, 28953-28959]. In brief, the cultures were fed with a defined mineral medium containing glucose as the growth-limiting nutrient [. Verduyn, C., Postma, E., Scheffers, W. A., and van Dijken, J. P. (1990) Microbiol.Rev. 58, 616-630]. The dilution rate (which equals the specific growth rate) in the steady-state cultures was 0.10 h_1, the temperature was 30°C, and the culture pH was 5.0. Aerobic conditions were maintained by sparging the cultures with air (0.5 liter_min_1). The dissolved oxygen concentration, which was continuously monitored with an Ingold model 34-100-3002 probe, remained above 80% of air saturation.
Extracted molecule
polyA RNA
Extraction protocol
Probe Preparation and Hybridization to Arrays—mRNA extraction, cDNA synthesis, cRNA synthesis and labeling, as well as array hybridization were performed as described in the Affymetrix users’ manual (1). Briefly, poly(A)_ RNA was enriched from total RNA in a single round using the Qiagen Oligotex kit. Double-stranded cDNA synthesis was carried out incorporating the T7 RNA-polymerase promoter in the first round. This cDNA was then used as template for in vitro transcription (ENZO BioArray High Yield IVT kit), which amplifies the RNA pool and incorporates biotinylated ribonucleotides required for the staining procedures after hybridization. 15 mg of fragmented, biotinylated cRNA was hybridized to Affymetrix yeast S98 arrays at 45 °C for 16 h as described in the Affymetrix users’ manual (1). Washing and staining of arrays were performed using the GeneChip Fluidics Station 400 and scanning with the Affymetrix GeneArray Scanner.

Sample_data_processing: Data Acquisition and Primary Analysis Acquisition and quantification of array images as well as primary data analysis were performed using the Affymetrix software packages: Microarray Suite version 4.0.1, MicroDB version 2.0, and Data Mining Tool version 2.0. Microsoft Excel was used for further statistical analyses. All arrays were globally scaled to a target value of 150 using the average signal from all gene features using Microarray Suite version 4.0.1. When pairwise comparisons were performed (using Microarray Suite version 4.0.1), a transcript was considered changed when a call of Increase or Decrease was made, the -fold change was at least 2, and the higher of the two average difference values was called present.
