[5] in Norwich, in which it collected food spoilage yeast which was able to evade the conventional food preservatives. In 1999, the collection became a part of The United Kingdom National Culture Collection (UKNCC)., [6] which was established to co-ordinate the activities of Britain’s national collections of microbial organisms.
The Geisenheim Yeast Finder supports practitioners in finding suitable yeast for their application. [4] Since 2019 the center focuses on working on lager and wine yeast strain improvements in fermentation and aroma compound production and has started work on biocontrol agents, the necrotrophic mycoparasitic predator yeasts.
A well-supported paleopolyploidy has been found in baker's yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae), despite its small, compact genome (~13Mbp), after the divergence from Kluyveromyces lactis and K. marxianus. [17] Through genome streamlining, yeast has lost 90% of the duplicated genome over evolutionary time and is now recognized as a diploid organism.
The yeast deletion project, formally the Saccharomyces Genome Deletion Project, is a project to create data for a near-complete collection of gene-deletion mutants of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Each strain carries a precise deletion of one of the genes in the genome. This allows researchers to determine what each gene does by comparing ...
Schizosaccharomyces pombe, also called "fission yeast", is a species of yeast used in traditional brewing and as a model organism in molecular and cell biology. It is a unicellular eukaryote , whose cells are rod-shaped.
Yeast estrogen screen (YES) and Yeast androgen screen (YAS) are in vitro screens that have been developed in order to detect estrogenic and androgenic activities, ...
In the peer-reviewed literature report, experimental results on function and interaction of yeast genes are extracted by high-quality manual curation and integrated within a well-developed database. The data are combined with quality high-throughput results and posted on Locus Summary pages which is a powerful query engine and rich genome browser.
In the 1990s, few genes were known and analysed by scientists until the first genomic analysis was performed by a team of the Pasteur Institute of Paris. [2] The genome Kluyveromyces lactis was explored by sequencing 588 short tags from two random genomic libraries (random sequenced tags, or RSTs). 296 K. lactis genes were identified of which 292 were new.
