Along with having been used to produce beer for centuries, the yeast species Schizosaccharomyces pombe is the ideal model organism to study these processes because it is so similar to human cells. "We ...

Fission yeast and budding yeast are free-living haploid cells that are easily grown in the laboratory. They have different cell shapes and patterns of division. Left, fission yeast; right, budding ...

The striking images, which thankfully do not need to be viewed using 3D glasses, are not just pretty pictures — they reveal the precise architectural plan of a Schizosaccharomyces pombe cell.

Protacio studies meiosis in the fission yeast species Schizosaccharomyces pombe at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences. When students started struggling to plate the yeasts ...

The Noguchi Lab works with mammalian cells and fission yeast (Schizosaccharomyces pombe). Fission yeast is an exceptional model system for studying cell cycle control and genome maintenance mechanisms ...

We explore these molecular networks using mainly the single-celled eukaryotic model system Schizosaccharomyces pombe, or fission yeast. Fission yeast cells have a well-defined shape and growth pattern ...

Along with having been used to produce beer for centuries, the yeast species Schizosaccharomyces pombe is the ideal model ...
