RLS were provided

todo: download data, and Sanger resource data


Growth rates were determined using a Bioscreen C MBR machine by analysis of optical density in the OD420-580 range as previously described in combination with the YODA Software package18. The data on transcripts, peptides (proteins), metabolites and morphology were downloaded from Yeast Resource Center http://www.yeastrc.org/g2p/download.do. Values corresponding to the 22 strains were extracted; metabolite data were not available for 378604X. Metabolites with missing values in more than one strain (other than 378604X) were discarded; the remaining missing values (6 out of 107 metabolites) were imputed based on 10 nearest neighbors, using “knnImputation” function of R package “DMwR”. For comparison across the phenotypic data, the values were standardized across the strain by setting mean = 0 and standard deviation = 1. In addition, for genes represented by multiple peptides, we calculated the mean standardized values to perform the regression.

GFP library screen, Cy5 labeling of cell wall, daughters have few cy5 because their walls are newly synthesized.

Most proteins are symmetrically distributed.

All aging factors are 'non-essential'.  This means that their 'interactions' to essential genes should be of importance in my network aging model.

CRISP screen paper from Feng Zhang lab:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24336571

Try to load the xlsx file into Rstudio. I waited for more than 50 minutes on Byte (4 G RAM), I then have to kill it. I then converted the xlsx to csv, and it worked in less than 1 minute!!!

There are 64.7K CRISP shots.

Only 18.7K genes are tagged. So, the missing one contain essential genes. Some other criteria are needed.
