[DIYbio] Re: Yeast as biosensor?

I looked it up. 

If you know which is the epitope... No... 

You could do it the other way round, you need to produce an antibody coupled to an RNA polymerase binding factor. If your ... No... 
Then you would need a antigen bound to a DNA-binding protein... 


Can't say... Maybe here anybody can evaluate the usability of this?

Hello! 
I have been doing some reading on biosensors and I discovered yeast can be used to detect the presence of heavy metals in water. I would like to know if they can be useful in medicine, say to detect antibodies or antigens? Thanks in advance for any information.
