Saccharomyces cerevisiae


Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the budding yeast, is the common yeast used in baking ("baker's yeast") and brewing ("brewer's yeast"). (It is only distantly related to another unicellular fungus, Schizosaccharomyces pombe, the fission yeast.) ...

Saccharomyces cerevisiae, or budding yeast, is a model eukaryote and its heterochromatin has been defined thoroughly. Although most of its genome can be characterized as euchromatin, S.cerevisiae has regions of DNA that are transcribed very poorly.

The completely sequenced yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae and the extensively sequenced worm Caenorhabditis elegans genomes provide us with the opportunity to search on a whole-genome wide basis for conservation of gene order between these distantly ...

In 1965, Brian Cox, a geneticist working with the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, described a genetic trait (termed [PSI+]) with an unusual pattern of inheritance.

Some fungi (for example Saccharomyces cerevisiae) are only known to reproduce as yeast while other fungi (for example, Candida albicans) are dimorphic, ...

He analyzes the function of proteins from the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae on a genome-wide basis, and uses this yeast to develop assays that can be applied to proteins from any organism.

One yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, is important for genetic research as well as its commercial applications in baking and brewing. Yeasts are part of the Human Genome Project and serve as easily studied models for eukaryotic gene systems.

The double-strand gap model of recombination was proposed to account for genetic observations in Saccharomyces cerevisiae that could not easily be explained by the Aviemore model.

the identification of ligands for genomically predicted lectins and potential glycosyltransferases are discussed in this chapter. Current knowledge on the glycomes of other model organisms such as Dictyostelium discoideum, Saccharomyces cerevisiae ...
