The power of many: when genetics met yeasts and high‐throughput
ABSTRACT In recent years, complex technological capabilities have evolved, driven by the need to solve complex and integrative biological questions through global analyses. New equipment allows the scaling up and automation of processes which previously were carried out on a very limited scale.

Methionine as an antimutagen in Schizosaccharomyces pombe [PDF]
Methionine inhibition of the phenotypic expression of adn - → adn + reverse mutations in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe was investigated. This inhibition occurred solely with L-methionine, and not with a variety of other growth factors. The inhibitory effect on revertant expression did not apply to a number of reverse and forward mutations

Active transport of cytoophidia in Schizosaccharomyces pombe [PDF]
ABSTRACT The metabolic enzyme cytidine triphosphate synthase has recently been found to form micrometer‐sized filamentous structures termed cytoophidia, which are evolutionarily conserved across prokaryotes and eukaryotes.

The ageing holobiont: crosstalk between telomere dynamics, oxidative stress and the gut microbiome
ABSTRACT The gut tissue is at the frontline of early onset of ageing. It exhibits high cell turnover rates and rapid telomere shortening, which can have systemic effects on the developing or senescing organism. We conducted a literature review of studies on the crosstalk between telomere length dynamics, telomerase activity, oxidative stress, and gut ...

Interspecies conservation of organisation and function between nonhomologous regional centromeres
Although the centromere-specific histone CENP-A usually assembles on specific genomic sequences, centromeric DNA is not conserved. Here the authors characterize the genome and centromeres of related fission yeasts and provide evidence that ...

Abstract Mitochondrial carriers (MCs), which constitute a superfamily also called the solute carrier family 25 (SLC25), are characterized by conserved signature motif sequences and a six‐transmembrane α‐helical transporter domain. They transport a wide variety of substrates ranging from protons, inorganic ions, citric acid cycle intermediates, and ...

Pyridoxal 5'‐phosphate (PLP), the coenzyme form of vitamin B6, is essential for amino acid metabolism. In mammals, PLP homeostasis relies on salvage enzymes, yet key metabolic branches remain undefined. We identify AKR1C isozymes as previously undescribed contributors that convert pyridoxal into pyridoxine or 4‐pyridoxolactone through reductase and ...

Plants synthesize ergothioneine, showing a link to abiotic stress
Various plants possess ergothioneine biosynthetic genes and can synthesize this antioxidant, where increased EGT levels under abiotic stress conditions indicate protective functions. Abstract Ergothioneine (EGT) is a sulphur‐containing histidine derivative and a potent antioxidant that exhibits beneficial effects on human health.
