This protocol details methods for the isolation of yeast nuclei from budding yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) and fission yeast (Schizosaccharomyces pombe), immuno-gold labeling of proteins and ...

“The team has now re-written the operating system of the budding yeast, which opens up a new era of engineering biology—moving from tinkering a handful of genes to de novo design and ...

So why did cells start sticking together? John Koschwanez at Harvard University and colleagues say that budding yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) may show the answer. Yeast is a single-celled ...

Now, researchers have built a device that, by allowing scientists to turn genes on and off in actively multiplying budding yeast cells, will help them figure out more precisely than before how ...

[Deepest Dwelling Multicellular Life Found] The budding yeast lives on simple sugars, which it makes by using an enzyme called invertase to chop more complex sugars, like sucrose, into smaller ...

His and his colleagues' research focused on a particular scenario that could have led single-celled organisms, like these yeast, to collaborate in a simple, multicellular form. The budding yeast ...

Over the past century, studies of the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae have helped to unravel principles of nearly every aspect of eukaryotic cell biology--from metabolism and molecular ...

The researchers found two separate aging trajectories in budding yeast. Changing the overall type of nutritional intake contributed to a healthier aging trajectory compared to yeast cells that ...

Though each yeast organism is made up of just one cell, yeast cells live together in multicellular colonies. They reproduce through a process called budding, in which a “mother cell” grows a ...

Researchers from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign designed and engineered artificial hybrids of two microbes – a budding yeast and photosynthetic cyanobacteria. The resulting chimera ...
