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.

Random Boolean Network Models and the Yeast Transcriptional Network [PDF]
The recently measured yeast transcriptional network is analyzed in terms of simplified Boolean network models, with the aim of determining feasible rule structures, given the requirement of stable solutions of the generated Boolean networks. We find that for ensembles of generated models, those with canalyzing Boolean rules are remarkably stable ...

Pharmacokinetics and Biodistribution of Zinc-Enriched Yeast in Rats
Zinc-enriched yeast (ZnY) and zinc sulfate (ZnSO4) are considered zinc (Zn) supplements currently available. The purpose of the investigation was to compare and evaluate pharmacokinetics and biodistribution of ZnY and ZnSO4 in rats.

The Fission Yeast Cell Integrity Pathway: A Functional Hub for Cell Survival upon Stress and Beyond
The survival of eukaryotic organisms during environmental changes is largely dependent on the adaptive responses elicited by signal transduction cascades, including those regulated by the Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase (MAPK) pathways.

Observations of magnetic field induced contraction of fission yeast cells using optical projection microscopy [PDF]
The charges in live cells interact with or produce electric fields, which results in enormous dielectric responses, flexoelectricity, and related phenomena. Here we report on a contraction of schizosacchraoymces pombe (fission yeast) cells induced by magnetic fields, as observed using a phase sensitive projection image technique. Unlike electric fields,

The effects of metformin therapy on BMI and biochemical markers among overweight children and adolescents [abstract] [PDF]
Introduction: In the United States, overweight adolescents are likely to continue to gain weight over time and are more likely to become overweight adults. High rates of child and adolescent obesity leave physicians searching for ways to stop this trend.

Homemade yeast by using tropical fruits through fermentation process [PDF]
Yeast is one type of bacteria that is used in baking industry and as the crucial parameters to determine the softness of the bread. Many tropical fruits can be used as a medium to produce yeast. The main goal of this study is to produce homemade yeast by

The Saccharomyces cerevisiae amino acid transporter Lyp1 has a broad substrate spectrum
In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Yeast Amino acid Transporter family members mediate the import of amino acids, ranging from substrate specialists to generalists. Here, we show that the specialist transporter, Lyp1, has a broader substrate spectrum than previously described, with affinity constants spanning from micromolar to millimolar.

Residual Supply Analysis of the United States Corn Export Market [PDF]
Six models of imperfect competition test the interaction between the United States and Argentina in the Japanese corn import market. The models evaluated were the Bertrand (1883), Cournot (1897), and Stackelberg (1952) with price and quantity leadership ...
