Identification and characterization of phenylpyruvate decarboxylase genes in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Article Abstract:

Research has been conducted on genes encoding Saccharomyces cerevisiae phenylpyruvate decarboxylase. The authors have investigated the hypothesis that S. cerevisiae genes for thiamine diphosphate-dependent decarboxylases encode physiologically relevant phenylpyruvate decarboxylaseactivity in wild-type S. cerevisiae, and they report the results.

Expression levels of the yeast alcohol acetyltransferase genes ATF1, Lg-ATF1, and ATF2 control the formation of a broad range of volatile esters

Article Abstract:

Research has been conducted on volatile esters. The role of deletion and overexpression of ATF1, Lg-ATF1 and ATF2 yeast alcohol acetyltransferase genes in volatile ester production has been investigated, and the results are reported.

In situ accessibility of Saccharomyces cerevisiae 26S rRNA to Cy3-labeled oligonucleotide probes comprising the D1 and D2 domains

Article Abstract:

Research has been conducted on D1 and D2 domains in the 26S rRNA. The authors describe the evaluation of the domains' accessibility to fluorescently labeled probes carried out via the use of Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a model.
