Quantifying Actin Persistence Length in S. pombe and S. cerevisiae: The Impact of Data Size, Filament Length and Fitting Strategy

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Actin filaments exhibit isoform and species‐specific mechanical properties that are commonly quantified via their persistence length, yet the reliability of such measurements depends not only on the analysis method but also on dataset characteristics.

Benchmarking of Fluorescent Proteins in Trichoderma reesei Using Flow Cytometry

Cytometry Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fungi are the subject of extensive research due to their significant impact on human life. However, the development of tools based on fluorescent proteins has been slow in these species. Trichoderma reesei, a filamentous fungus known for its high secretion capability, shows great potential for producing heterologous proteins.

Systematic analysis reveals the prevalence and principles of bypassable gene essentiality

Nature Communications, 2019
An essential gene may become non-essential when another gene is mutated. Here, the authors investigate this type of digenic interaction, termed ‘bypass of essentiality’, in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe, and show that bypassable essential ...

Identifying resistance‐conferring cytochrome P450s in weeds: experimental strategies and practical considerations

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Identifying resistance‐conferring cytochrome P450s requires integrating weed characterization, gene discovery and functional validation. No single approach is sufficient to distinguish causal resistance genes from herbicide‐metabolizing enzymes. Abstract Cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (P450s) play a pivotal role in metabolic herbicide resistance, yet ...

CryoBN‐PAGE: A Rapid and Cost‐Effective Method for the Analysis of Yeast Respiratory Complexes and Their Dynamic Organization

Yeast, EarlyView.
We present cryoBN‐PAGE, a method that enables blue native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis analysis of mitochondrial respiratory complexes and supercomplexes directly from whole yeast cells using cryogenic milling. This approach eliminates the need for mitochondrial isolation, reducing time and cost while preserving native protein complexes.

CRL4Wdr70 regulates H2B monoubiquitination and facilitates Exo1-dependent resection

Nature Communications, 2016
The repair of double-strand DNA breaks by homologous recombination requires resection of the DNA ends. Here the authors show that in Schizosaccharomyces pombe and human cells, Wdr70 is recruited as part of the CRL4 complex to promote ubiquitination of ...

Population genomics of the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
The fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe has been widely used as a model eukaryote to study a diverse range of biological processes. However, population genetic studies of this species have been limited to date, and we know very little about the ...

Yeast Knockout Strain Collection: Driving Functional Genomics, Biotechnological Applications and Human Disease Research

Yeast, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The knockout strain collection of Saccharomyces cerevisiae has served as a valuable resource for functional genomics and yeast‐based biotechnology studies. A comprehensive single‐gene knockout strain collection, covering nearly all non‐essential genes, together with complementary mutant collections for essential genes, including temperature ...

Optimisation of the Schizosaccharomyces pombe urg1 expression system. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
The ability to study protein function in vivo often relies on systems that regulate the presence and absence of the protein of interest. Two limitations for previously described transcriptional control systems that are used to regulate protein expression

Spatial Gene Expression in Fungi: mRNA Localization, Condensates, and Beyond

Yeast, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Polarized growth and cellular asymmetry are broadly conserved properties of fungal life, from transient bud‐site selection in unicellular yeasts to sustained hyphal extension in filamentous and coenocytic species. While vesicle trafficking, cytoskeletal organization, and cell‐wall remodeling are well‐established contributors to these processes,
