Autophagy, the cell's essential housekeeping process, involves degrading and recycling damaged organelles, proteins, and ...

CERTAIN strains of baker's yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) have been shown in this laboratory to be capable of fermenting maltose without prior exposure to this sugar provided that the growth ...

In many organisms, aging is a clear risk factor for increased rates of chromosome mis-segregation, the main source of aneuploidy. Here, we report that old yeast mother c ...

Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a species of yeast (single-celled fungus microorganism). The species has been instrumental in winemaking, baking, and brewing since ancient times. It is also known as baker ...

An initiative born in Chile, led by researchers at El Instituto de Investigaciones Agropecuarias (INIA) La Cruz, in ...

Aug. 13, 2021 — Researchers have characterized how the essential mRNA poly(A) tails are synthesized in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The study reveals several mechanisms ...

Fission yeast and budding yeast are free-living haploid cells that are easily grown in the laboratory. They have different cell shapes and patterns of division. Left, fission yeast; right ...

Researchers from the Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine (NUS Medicine) have developed a novel way to engineer yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) to create microbial communities that can perform complex ...

have developed a groundbreaking way to engineer yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) to create microbial communities that can perform complex tasks and self-regulate their composition in response to ...

Most of the meiosis research in the lab uses the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae and the mouse. Finally, our studies of Spo11 have also provided an entry point to research on the DSBs made by the ...

Yeast used in baking is a single-cell organism called Saccharomyces cerevisiae. It is a leavener that helps dough to rise as it bakes. Warmth, food, and moisture activate yeast, making it multiply ...
