CUR treatment induces growth arrest in yeast cells can be rescued upon iron supplementation. Wild type cells (WT-1588-4C) were cultured in synthetic complete (SC) medium until they reached the exponential phase. Yeast cells were then treated with alpha-factor to synchronize them in the G1 phase. After synchronization, cells were released into media supplemented with (A) DMSO (control), (B) 50 μM CUR, (C) 100 μM CUR and (D) 100 μM CUR supplemented with 100 μM Iron. The cultures were sampled at the indicated time points and their DNA content was then analyzed by FACS.
