This study shows that constitutive sporulation in wild fission yeast enhances survival by resisting digestion by fruit flies, despite being disadvantageous under nutrient-rich conditions.

This study shows curcumin enhances alcoholic fermentation in yeast under high-glucose osmotic stress by promoting stress adaptation and metabolic shifts.

The paper shows how mutations in a mating pheromone can change function based on environmental conditions and how compensatory mutations allow evolutionary adaptation.

This study curates and visualizes phenotypic data for 1,300 yeast species from The Yeasts (5th edition), revealing metabolic and ecological diversity across yeast lineages.

This study compares aerobic glycolysis in cancer cells and yeast under mitochondrial stress, finding conserved metabolic rewiring and ATP transport mechanisms that support cell survival.

This study investigates the specificity of two GPCRs, Mam2 and Map3, in fission yeast for their respective pheromones, revealing differences in molecular recognition and signaling.
