Abstract:The budding yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae is one of the most studied organisms used for the synthesis of products, to explore the human diseases and eukaryotic gene expression mechanisms. The yeast cells with flocculation property are in high demand for industrial applications. However, the pathogenic yeast becomes drug-resistant due to flocculation/biofilm phenotype. The flocculation property of yeast depends on the expression of specific FLO genes. Genetic and epigenetic factors have been suggested to indu… Show more
