      Budding yeast are capable of existing in both a haploid and diploid state. Haploid cells have two mating types, MATa and MATα. When cells from the two mating types come in contact they signal using reciprocal ...

    • A Synthetic Yeast Model for Differentiation and Division of Labor 

      Wahl, Mary Elizabeth (2014-06-06)
      To maintain high average fitness, populations must effect selection against the deleterious mutations that continuously arise de novo. Theoretical models of mutation-selection balance predict that the maximum tolerable ...

    • The role of the B-type cyclin Clb4 in budding yeast meiosis 

      Lumbroso, Gal (2023-05-03)
      Meiosis is a specialized cell division that includes a round of DNA replication, followed by two rounds of chromosome segregation, producing cells with half the ploidy of the original cell (gametes). The second meiotic ...
