As Hartwell (who is still working with yeast) and his colleagues from the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle, Washington, have shown, the nature of the cell cycle checkpoint ...

so biologists often use it as a model organism to study fundamental cellular processes. Ribosomes turn upside-down in hungry cells Scientists have observed that yeast cells have a remarkable ...

When yeast cells divide, they retain their own damaged proteins to produce daughter cells with immaculate cytoplasms, essentially resetting their age and giving the lineage immortality. While a decade ...

Gene regulation underpins nearly every biological process—from cell development to responses ... gene expression—work in fission yeast, a key model organism for studying gene regulation.

Early in his studies using budding yeast as a model organism, he peered into the microscope and ... data suggested that metabolic oscillations in yeast work in synchrony with cell cycle regulators to ...

Gimzewski (holding a model of a carbon molecule in his UCLA lab) uses an atomic force microscope to "listen" to living cells. Debra DiPaolo The frequency of the yeast cells the researchers tested ...

Fission yeast and budding yeast are ... Cycle Regulation Different models of cell cycle regulation converged when scientists realized that different model organisms shared the same molecules.
