Abstract
Kluyveromyces marxianus is an interesting and important yeast because of particular traits such as thermotolerance and rapid growth, and for applications in food and industrial biotechnology. For both understanding its biology and developing bioprocesses, it is important to understand how K. marxianus responds and adapts to changing environments. For this, a full suite of omics tools to measure and compare global patterns of gene expression and protein synthesis is needed. We report here the development of a ribosome profiling method for K. marxianus, which allows codon resolution of translation on a genome-wide scale by deep sequencing of ribosome locations on mRNAs. To aid in the analysis and sharing of ribosome profiling data, we added the K. marxianus genome as well as transcriptome and ribosome profiling data to the publicly accessible GWIPS-viz and Trips-Viz browsers. Users are able to upload custom ribosome profiling and RNA-Seq data to both browsers, therefore allowing easy analysis and sharing of data. We also provide a set of step-by-step protocols for the experimental and bioinformatic methods that we developed.
