Culturing Saccharomyces cerevisiae in the Lab
Description
Saccharomyces cerevisiae can be grown and maintained in the lab for scientific study. This yeast has helped researchers better understand cell cycle control, aging, and cell death. It is also inexpensive to grow and available in many ready-to-use strains.
Keeping yeast cultures in good condition ...

Transcript
The important discoveries of cell cycle regulation, telomerase activity, and autophagy in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, have proven that this yeast species a valuable model organism for research. Yeast are easy to grow and yeast plasmids and strains are commercially available. Despite the relatively inexpensive requireme...
