Abstract: Two-component systems (TCSs) are widely distributed cell signaling pathways used by both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms to cope with a wide range of environmental cues. In fungi, TCS signaling routes, that mediate perception of stimuli,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41467-018-04374-7
Abstract: The genetic code used in nuclear genes is almost universal, but here we report that it changed three times in parallel during the evolution of budding yeasts. All three changes were reassignments of the codon… read more here.

Abstract: Budding yeasts are distributed across a wide range of habitats, including as human commensals. However, under some conditions, these commensals can cause superficial, invasive, and even lethal infections. Despite their importance to human health, little… read more here.
