Abstract:The budding yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, is a prime biological model to study mechanisms underlying asymmetric growth. Previous studies have shown that, prior to yeast bud emergence, polarization of a conserved small GTPase, Cdc42, must be established. Additionally, hydrolase changes the mechanical properties of the cell wall and plasma membrane with the periplasm between them (cell surface). However, how the surface mechanical properties in the emerging bud are different from the properties of the mother … Show more
