In this report, we present coordinated observations of protein and mRNA transcript counts at the single-cell level in the oleaginous yeast model Yarrowia lipolytica. The transcription factor Xbp1p regulates entry into a quiescent state, representing a shift of resources to sequestration of nutrients rather than cell division. We observed the responses of wild-type and Δxbp1 cells to protein (by fluorescence) and transcript quantification and localization at both single-cell and population-averaged levels. Data were collected via single-molecule fluorescence in situ hybridization (smFISH) and qPCR under nitrogen depletion, a condition that drives lipid accumulation. These techniques reveal a complex and heterogeneous population of Xbp1p dynamics and downstream regulation. Our findings highlight the need for single-cell resolution analyses to describe cellular dynamics and regulatory processes.
