Zinc accumulation and utilisation by wine yeasts [PDF]
The present study has focused on the accumulation of zinc by wine yeast strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae during fermentation of both grape juice and chemically defined medium with different carbohydrates and at varying levels of zinc. The results have

The Predominant Protein-arginine Methyltransferase from Saccharomyces cerevisiae [PDF]
We have identified the major enzymatic activity responsible for the S-adenosyl-L-methionine-dependent methylation of arginine residues (EC 2.1.1.23) in proteins of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The RMT1 (protein-arginine methyltransferase), formerly ODP1, gene product encodes a 348-residue polypeptide of 39.8 kDa that catalyzes both the NG-mono ...

Comparison of structures among Saccharomyces cerevisiae Grxs proteins [PDF]
Glutaredoxins (Grxs) comprise a group of glutathione (GSH)-dependent oxidoreductase enzymes that respond to oxidative stress and sustain redox homeostasis. Saccharomyces cerevisiae Grx has a similar interaction patterns through its residues between the residues and the environment. The glutaredoxin domain covers 100% of the entire mature Grx1 and Grx8,

SUMOylation of Rad52-Rad59 synergistically change the outcome of mitotic recombination [PDF]
Homologous recombination (HR) is essential for maintenance of genome stability through double-strand break (DSB) repair, but at the same time HR can lead to loss of heterozygosity and uncontrolled recombination can be genotoxic.

Global Analysis of Protein Sumoylation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae [PDF]
Although the modification of cellular factors by SUMO is an essential process in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the identities of the substrates remain largely unknown. Using a mass spectrometry-based approach, we have identified 271 new SUMO targets. These substrates play roles in a diverse set of biological processes and greatly expand the scope of SUMO ...

Reprogramming Hansenula polymorpha for penicillin production: expression of the Penicillium chrysogenum pcl gene [PDF]
We aim to introduce the penicillin biosynthetic pathway into the methylotrophic yeast Hansenula polymorpha. To allow simultaneous expression of the multiple genes of the penicillin biosynthetic pathway, additional markers were required.

Kcc4 associates with septin proteins of Saccharomyces cerevisiae [PDF]
Kcc4, a kinase of the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, is homologous to the bud neck protein kinases Hsl1/Nik1 and Gin4. We report here that a GFP‐Kcc4 fusion protein is localized at the bud neck and that the non‐kinase domain is required for this localization. We also demonstrate that Kcc4 associates with septin proteins in vitro and in vivo by

External and internal triggers of cell death in yeast [PDF]
In recent years, yeast was confirmed as a useful eukaryotic model system to decipher the complex mechanisms and networks occurring in higher eukaryotes, particularly in mammalian cells, in physiological as well in pathological conditions.
