Experiment / E2PUQYEOAPromoter / Core Promoter MPRA

Baseline activity of yeast UAS–core-promoter combinations

Broad compatibility between yeast UAS elements and core promoters and identification of promoter elements that determine cofactor specificity

An episomal, barcoded plasmid MPRA tested approximately 4,200 genomic yeast UASs and 222 genomic control sequences upstream of four representative yeast core promoters. This long-format table contains the published baseline reporter-expression summary for each element–core-promoter pair.

Processed tables are specific to each experiment. Column names, units, measurements, and table structure are not standardized across the database. Check this experiment’s column definitions and quality-control notes before comparing or combining data.

Perturbation & assay details

Basal / no auxin (DMSO vehicle)

Episomal yeast reporter plasmids were derived from Yeast_Dual_Reporter (Addgene plasmid 127546) with unstable GFP. Each library contained a 199–200 nt UAS/control sequence upstream of one of four 60 nt TFIIB-defined core-promoter regions (SIT1, KRS1, NOP13, or RPC10), followed by a G-less randomized 18 nt barcode in the uGFP 5′ UTR. Nascent RNA was labeled with 4-thiouracil for 5 min, targeted barcode RNA sequencing was paired with DNA plasmid-library sequencing, and RNA barcode counts were normalized to DNA input. The published expression values are aggregate processed reporter measurements rather than raw read counts.

Quality control

The study transformed each library at least tenfold above library complexity. Paired-end reads were joined and clustered at 99% similarity for RNA barcode amplicons and 97% similarity for DNA plasmid amplicons; DNA clusters were assigned to UAS/core references by fuzzy sequence matching and RNA barcodes by exact matching. Within each sample, only the most common DNA sequence for each barcode was retained, and barcodes assigned to more than one UAS–core context were removed. Reporter expression was calculated from library-size-normalized RNA divided by library-size-normalized DNA; normalized barcode counts had Pearson reproducibility of 0.71–0.97 across replicates. For this package, rows were retained from the published Table S1 only when the element sequence and requested reporter-expression endpoint were present; all retained rows are marked paper_qc_pass=TRUE.

Curation notes

The source Table S1 contains 4,464 unique elements (4,242 UASs, 112 accessible controls, and 110 inaccessible controls), represented here as four rows per element. The Table S1 UAS_sequence values are 199 nt for genomic UAS entries although the methods describe 200 nt UASs; values were preserved verbatim. Seven auxiliary Reporter_core_class_activation_ratio cells are Excel error values (#NAME?) in the source workbook; they are blank in processed_data because the primary reporter-expression endpoints remain valid, while the source workbook and lossless CSV retain the original values. The baseline endpoint is the published aggregate expression summary and does not expose strain-specific raw barcode counts. Coordinates were joined by exact sequence to UAS_reference_table.csv for UASs and by element_id to UAS_control_region_assignments.csv for controls; all 17,856 element–promoter rows mapped successfully.
