ABSTRACT

Here, we describe a Library screen transformation protocol using the lithium acetate/single-stranded carrier DNA/PEG method of transformation for Saccharomyces cerevisiae. This method is suitable for screening complex plasmid libraries such as those used for yeast two-hybrid analysis. This procedure takes up to 2.5 h to complete once the yeast culture has been grown.
