With almost 20 genomes sequenced from unicellular ascomycetes (Saccharomycotina), and
the prospect of many more in the pipeline, we review the patterns and processes of yeast …

The aldo-keto reductases (AKR) are a superfamily of enzymes with diverse functions in the
reduction of aldehydes and ketones. AKR enzymes are found in a wide range of …

The catabolism of phenylalanine to 2-phenylethanol and of tryptophan to tryptophol were
studied by 13 C NMR spectroscopy and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry …

Human intervention has subjected the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae to multiple rounds of
independent domestication and thousands of generations of artificial selection. As a result …

The transcriptome of a wine yeast was monitored throughout an alcoholic fermentation
under conditions mimicking an enological environment. Major changes in gene expression …

Background Candida glabrata follows C. albicans as the second or third most prevalent
cause of candidemia worldwide. These two pathogenic yeasts are distantly related, C …

This text emphasises the importance of staying informed about Saccharomyces cerevisiae
as it provides the intellectual basis for much of the molecular and cellular biology of …

The Saccharomyces 'sensu stricto'yeasts are a group of species that will mate with one
another, but interspecific pairings produce sterile hybrids. A retrospective analysis of their …

Why are most genes dispensable? The impact of gene deletions may depend on the
environment (plasticity), the presence of compensatory mechanisms (mutational …

One of the great strengths of the Internet is that no single computer or cable is essential for it
to work properly. If a computer crash means that your e-mail from A to C cannot be routed …
