Systematic analysis reveals the prevalence and principles of bypassable gene essentiality

open access: yesNature 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 ...

Transposons as Tools for Future Genome Engineering in Yeasts and Filamentous Fungi

open access: yesYeast, EarlyView.
Applications of transposon‐based tools for genome engineering in fungi include transposon‐mediated mutagenesis and targeted genomic integration. ABSTRACT Transposons are fundamental genetic elements that have profoundly shaped the architecture of eukaryotic genomes.

Growth and the Environment of Schizosaccharomyces pombe [PDF]

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Protocols, 2016
Here, we summarize the composition and uses of Schizosaccharomyces pombe media and discuss key issues for consideration in the generation of S. pombe cultures. We discuss the concept of “culture memory,” in which the growth state and stress experienced by a strain during storage, propagation, and starter culture preparation can alter experimental ...

CRL4Wdr70 regulates H2B monoubiquitination and facilitates Exo1-dependent resection

open access: yesNature 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]

open access: yesPLoS 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 ...

A new branch of mammalian vitamin B6 metabolism: AKR1C‐mediated conversion of pyridoxal to pyridoxine and 4‐pyridoxolactone

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Pyridoxal 5′‐phosphate (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 dehydrogenase activities.

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

open access: yesPLoS 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

Homologous recombination mutants cause differing lethality between h− and h+ Schizosaccharomyces pombe strains due to mat1 heterochromatin

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Homologous recombination (HR) in Schizosaccharomyces pombe is essential when mating‐type switching–induced double‐strand breaks (DSBs) form at the mat1 locus. In h90 and h− strains, efficient mat1 DSB formation renders HR indispensable unless suppressors block these breaks.

Diverse transposable element landscapes in pathogenic and nonpathogenic yeast models: the value of a comparative perspective

open access: yesMobile DNA, 2020
Genomics and other large-scale analyses have drawn increasing attention to the potential impacts of transposable elements (TEs) on their host genomes. However, it remains challenging to transition from identifying potential roles to clearly demonstrating
