a) providing: i) a test compound, ii) a growth media lacking arginine and containing a canavanine salt, and iii) modified yeast cells derived from wild type yeast cells, wherein said modified yeast cells express reduced cytosolic activity levels of Mod5p as compared to said wild type yeast cells, and wherein said modified yeast cells comprise a CAN1 gene having a nonsense mutation and a gene coding for a nonsense suppressor tRNA;
b) mixing said growth media and said modified yeast cells to form an untreated modified yeast cell mixture;
c) adding an aliquot of said untreated modified yeast cell mixture in said test compound thereby creating a treated modified yeast cell mixture; and
d) measuring the growth of modified yeast cells within said treated modified yeast cell mixture and the growth of modified yeast cells within said untreated yeast cell mixture, wherein a difference in the growth of modified yeast cells within said treated modified yeast cell mixture and the growth of modified yeast cells within said untreated yeast cell mixture indicates the test compound has had an agonistic or antagonistic effect on the melvalonate pathway in sterol synthesis."],"number":1,"annotation":false,"title":false,"claim":true},{"lines":["A method for screening compounds that are agonistic or antagonistic to the melvalonate pathway in sterol synthesis, comprising:
