It highlights the remarkable adaptability of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, common baker’s yeast. Researchers previously observed that the species, which lives in colonies, can alter its pattern of growth ...

The common baker's yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) was the first non-bacterial living thing to have its genome sequenced, back in 1996. However, when the sequence of that genome emerged it ...

In a recent study published in Tropical Medicine and Infectious Disease, a team of researchers from Brazil presented a fatal case of a patient developing Saccharomyces cerevisiae infection and ...

More specifically, Saccharomyces cerevisiae is the species of yeast used for making wine, raising bread and fermenting beer. Now, new research indicates that various strains of the wonder ...

Recent whole-genome DNA sequence analysis showed that S. boulardii is closely related to the much better-known Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the yeast species of which different varieties are commonly ...

It highlights the remarkable adaptability of Saccharomyces cerevisiae ... of growth in response to food scarcity. Starve a colony of S. cerevisiae, and new cells start growing outward in a ...
