As illustrated by the revolution in yeast biology and genetics as a result of knowing the complete genomic sequence, discovery science is fundamentally changing how hypothesis-driven science can ...

Using single-cell RNA sequencing, we mapped thousands of expression quantitative trait loci in yeast, including a variant in GPA1 that influences gene expression, cell-cycle occupancy, and mating ...

Here he worked in Jonas Warringer's research group, which focuses on yeast evolutionary biology. "We were intrigued by the idea that unknown yeasts from unexplored tropical regions could have ...

the bacteria-yeast hybrids can produce important hydrocarbons, paving new biotechnical pathways to non-petroleum-based energy, other synthetic biology applications and the experimental study of ...

“This is really a team effort,” says Shreyas Pai, a graduate student in Systems, Synthetic, and Quantitative Biology. Each day, the yeast multiplies ten generations, and at the end of the ...

Jef Boeke, a geneticist at New York University, and his team use yeast as an artistic medium in their lab. Instead of pens or paintbrushes, these scientists use genetics, genomics, and synthetic ...

Recombinant yeast cells can be used as a vector to produce proteins that would normally be found in animals or plants. Recombinant yeast cells are used during DNA Recombinant technology as they ...

When compared with current production methods, Keasling said, “Scaled up, over the long term, [our approach] will be the best way.” The current yield from yeast is 0.0012 percent w/w, that is lower ...
