Protein–Protein Interactions: Yeast Two Hybrid
The yeast two-hybridYeast two-hybrid (Y2H) systemTwo-hybrid system is a powerful and commonly used genetic tool to investigate the interaction... -
Yeast as a model for ageing and apoptosis research
Apoptosis is a form of programmed cell death with a crucial role in health and disease in metazoans. Recent findings demonstrate the existence of an... -
Mitochondria, metabolism, and aging in yeast
Quantitative and qualitative changes in metabolism take place when the lifespan is extended in yeast either by genetic or nutritional manipulation.... -
The origins of the Guinness stout yeast
Beer is made via the fermentation of an aqueous extract predominantly composed of malted barley flavoured with hops. The transforming microorganism...

Modelling signalling pathways – a yeast approach
MAP kinase pathways are conserved signalling systems in eukaryotes that control stress responses, cell growth, and proliferation, as well as... -
Kluyveromyces lactis zymocin and other plasmid-encoded yeast killer toxins
Supported by an endogenous killer plasmid DNA system that codes for an anti-proliferative zymocin toxin, the dairy yeast Kluyveromyces lactis has... -
Integrative analysis of yeast colony growth
Yeast colonies are routinely grown on agar plates in everyday experimental settings to understand basic molecular processes, produce novel drugs,...
