Yeast species have undergone extensive genome reorganization in their evolutionary history, including variations in chromosome number and large chromosomal rearrangements, such as translocations. To determine directly the contribution of chromosomal translocations to the whole organism's fitness, we devised a strategy to construct in Saccharomyces cerevisiae collinear "evolutionary mimics" of o...

Background and Purpose: By using advanced detection/identification methods, the list of emerging uncommon opportunistic yeast infections is rapidly expanding worldwide. Our aim in the present study was sequence-based species delineation of previously unidentified yeasts obtained from a clinically yeast collection. Materials and Methods: A total of twenty three out of the 855 (5.7%) yeast isolat...

ABSTRACT: In this research, yeast-salt method was used to make flat bread dough. The yeast used for this process was Saccharomyces cerevisiae (PTCC-Code 5080), that was employed at the concentrations of 0.06% and 0.12% (w/w based on wheat flour). In order to carry out this research, a completely randomized design with three replications was used. Means were compared through Duncan's multiple ra...

In unicellular organisms like yeasts, which do not have specialized tissues for protection against environmental challenges, the presence of cellular mechanisms to respond and adapt stress conditions is fundamental. this work, we aimed investigate response light in Kluyveromyces lactis . Yeast lacks light-sensing proteins; however, Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been reported by increasing hydrog...

Over the past decade, the baker's yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae has proven to be a useful model system to investigate fundamental questions concerning the pathogenic role of human proteins in neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's disease (PD). These so-called humanized yeast models for PD initially focused on α -synuclein, which plays a key role in the etiology of PD. Upon expression ...

Bioethanol has a greater promise for environmental safety and energy security than fossil fuels. The alternate source required to meet the fuel's requirements can be provided by bioethanol. Untapped sugar-rich sources, like cellulose-rich household wastes, industrial agricultural all used make bioethanol at minimal cost. study's objective was determine whether saccharomyces cerevisiae cells fro...
