Abstract:
A new genomic strategy for identifying the gene encoding any biochemical activity has recently been developed, in which an array of individual yeast strains expressing a genomic set of open reading frames fused to glutathione S-transferase can be assayed for a biochemical activity of interest. Designated 'biochemical genomics', this approach represents an innovative application of genomic information.
