Yeast Maintenance
Description
Research performed in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae has significantly improved our understanding of important cellular phenomona such as regulation of the cell cycle, aging, and cell death. The many benefits of working with S. cerevisiae include the facts that they are inexpensive to grow in the lab and that many ready-to-use strai...

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...
