Gene-centered yeast one-hybrid (Y1H) screens using arrayed genome-wide transcription factor (TF) clone collections provide a simple and effective strategy to identify TF-promoter interactions using a DNA fragment as bait. In an effort to improve the assay we recently developed a Y1H system that uses a cell surface Gaussia luciferase reporter (gLUC59). Compared to other available methods, this luciferase-based strategy requires a shorter processing time, enhances the throughput and improves result analysis of gene-centered Y1H screens. Here, we described the procedure to perform high-throughput screens using this novel strategy, which involves a protocol for mating two haploid yeast strains carrying an arrayed TF clone collection and a promoter::gLUC59 reporter, respectively, and a protocol for analyzing gLUC59 activity in the resulting diploid cells. © 2019 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
