An international research team with strong participation from DTU has developed a new biotechnological platform that makes it ...

DNase1 is a powerful human enzyme that breaks down free DNA in the body. It plays a critical role in clearing thick mucus in cystic fibrosis patients. For decades, scientists have relied on expensive ...

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute have shown that the "pacemaker" controlling yeast cell division lies inside the nucleus rather than outside it, as previously thought. Having the pacemaker ...

Delivering drugs to gut tumors can be tricky. Researchers at Washington University in St. Louis have engineered an oral probiotic yeast to do the work for them, with the fungal cells able to release ...

Yeast-based protein expression systems will likely play an important role in vaccine production during future pandemics.

The secret to cellular youth may depend on keeping the nucleolus—a condensed structure inside the nucleus of a cell—small, according to Weill Cornell Medicine investigators. The findings were ...

Yeast cell polarity and division dynamics underpin the fundamental processes of asymmetric growth and replication in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The establishment of polarity is mediated by the ...

The discovery of a surprising way yeast used to brew beer can survive starvation could open the door to new treatments for cancer. The discovery, from University of Virginia School of Medicine ...

EZ-Spread™ Plating Beads from AMSBIO (Oxford, UK) allow you to spread bacterial and yeast cells across the surface of an agar plate in just seconds. Eliminating the traditional need for glass rods and ...

In starved fission yeast, the ribosomes attach to the mitochondrial outer membrane via their small subunit. This is a very unusual ‘upside-down’ orientation. What can stressed yeast teach us about ...

Scientists introduce a single-cell Raman method that monitors beer fermentation in real time, capturing metabolic variation and predicting key process metrics accurately.
