We investigated the sub-cellular architecture of Stress Granules in the context of glucose starvation. In order to uncover transient and peripheral Stress Granule interactors, we optimized the proximity-dependent biotinylation (BioID) approach for use in yeast. This approach allowed us to visualize Stress Granule formation while simultaneously inducing the biotinylation of SG components and nearby proteins in live cells. We used two independent Stress Granule components Pub1 and Pab1.
