PCR using Yeast colonies-info wanted

[John Stebbins]

I am going to try to pcr a fragment out of yeast genomic DNA.  I seem to
remember a post that descibed adding some yeast straight from a plate into
the reaction and letting the 95degrees lyse it.  Anyone know the details of
this and how well it works?

Thanks...John Stebbins
