Yeast cells were cultured from −80 °C stock as above. Complementation assays were performed in clear 96-well plates (well capacity: 400 µl). Each well contained 200 µl yeast culture. Medium was made from 100 µl 2x SG medium and 80 µl of CaCl2, BAPTA or MnSO4 (all dissolved in 100 mM TES/KOH, pH = 6) to the desired final concentrations. 20 µl of a cell suspension with OD450 = 0.5 in dH2O was added to each well. Plates were incubated at the desired temperature and OD450 of the cultures measured in a plate-reader (Multiskan RC, Thermo Labsystems) at appropriate time intervals. BAPTA (1, 2-bis(o-Aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N’,N’-tetraacetic Acid) was purchased as tetrasodium salt from Merck (cat.no.: 196418).
