growth_aa_labelling: Cells were grown for two doublings in synthetic complete (SC) medium containing 2% glucose. Rapamycin was added for the indicated amount of time at a final concentration of 7.5 uM (standard) or 0.15 uM (slow depletion). 4-thiouracil (4tU) was added to a final concentration of 5 mM six minutes before harvesting by spinning at 3952 x g for 1 minute. The supernatant was decanted and the cells were snap-frozen in liquid nitrogen.

Data processing
Genes, no bg corr, dye corr: Normalization was done using print-tip LOESS as described in (Yang et al. 2002), by estimating the LOESS curve for all gene probes using no background subtraction and a span of 0.4. Probes flagged as absent, or with a (nearly) saturated signal (i.e., > 2^15) in either channel were not considered for the estimation of the LOESS curve. Signals were corrected for dye bias using intrinsic gene-specific dye biases estimated from a set of wild-type hybridizations, as described in Margaritis, Lijnzaad et al., Mol. Sys. Biol. 2009.
