Phosphatidylinositol (4,5)-bisphosphate turnover by INP51 regulates the cell wall integrity pathway in "Saccharomyces cerevisiae" [PDF]
Signal transduction pathways are important for the cell to transduce external or internal stimuli where second messengers play an important role as mediators of the stimuli. One important group of second messengers are the phosphoinositide family present

Fermentative capability and aroma compound production by yeast strains isolated from Agave tequilana Weber juice [PDF]
Five yeast strains isolated from agave juice were studied for their fermentative and aromatic capacity. The experiments were performed using agave juice supplemented with ammonium sulphate, as is commonly done in tequila distilleries.

Deletion of RAD52 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae severely decreases frequencies of Agrobacterium genetic transformation mediated by either an integrative or a replicating binary vector [PDF]
Agrobacterium tumefaciens is capable to transfer genes across kingdoms. It can genetically transform not only plant cells, but also many other bacterial, algal, fungal, animal and human cells.

Discontinuity Induced Bifurcations in a Model of Saccharomyces cerevisiae [PDF]
We perform a bifurcation analysis of the mathematical model of Jones and Kompala [K.D. Jones and D.S. Kompala, Cybernetic model of the growth dynamics of Saccharomyces cerevisiae in batch and continuous cultures, J. Biotech., 71:105-131, 1999]. Stable oscillations arise via Andronov-Hopf bifurcations and exist for intermediate values of the dilution ...

Saccharomyces boulardii: What Makes It Tick as Successful Probiotic?
Saccharomyces boulardii is a probiotic yeast often used for the treatment of GI tract disorders such as diarrhea symptoms. It is genetically close to the model yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae and its classification as a distinct species or a S. cerevisiae
