In the latest #Yeast research article, Miguel A. Rocha, Gowda Bhavani and Jacob Fleischmann investigate the role of exonuclease-resistant ribosomal RNAs in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, their relationship with nutritional status and the TOR signalling pathway.

18S and 25S Exonuclease Resistant Ribosomal RNA Molecules Are Produced by 5′‐End Modification During TOR Inhibition.
Saccharomyces cerevisiae produces exonuclease-resistant rRNA molecules upon TOR inhibition. This phenomenon occurs when cells enter the diauxic phase, upon addition of rapamycin to the culture, or wh...

1/10 Genome maintenance by telomerase is a fundamental process in nearly all eukaryotes. But where does it come from?

Today, we report the discovery of telomerase homologs in a family of antiviral RTs, revealing an unexpected evolutionary origin in bacteria.

Sex or growth? Life must continually balance these strategies. We forced yeast to choose and captured the trade-off in real time. Evolution rewired existing regulators and fixed them through genetic assimilation, creating specialists for sex at the cost of growth.
