Not exact matches

The team found that yeast cells dosed with the deuterium - based fatty acids were up to 150 times as resistant to oxidative stress as cells treated with normal fatty acids (Free Radical Biology and Medicine, DOI: 10.1016 / j.freeradbiomed.2010.10.690).

For instance, in the normal [psi --RSB- strain of yeast, a protein called Sup35 is soluble, but in [PSI +] yeast cells, it forms insoluble clumps.

As a result of this careful debugging, yeast cells with the synthetic chromosomes grow just as quickly in the lab as normal, wild yeast, despite the wholesale alterations (Science, DOI: 10.1126 / science.aaf4557).

In 2001, he discovered that a strain of yeast made up of unusually small cells and colonies lived about three times longer than normal yeast and was highly protected from DNA damage and aging.

Given his training in developmental biology, Raman focused the team to seek a novel drug target on genes important to the development of model organisms — fruit flies (Drosophila) and yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae)-- rather than on oncogenes that transform a normal cell into a cancer cell.

There were hints that a chaperone called heat shock protein 104 (Hsp104) was different: Cell biologist Susan Lindquist of the University of Chicago and her colleagues had shown that yeast lacking Hsp104 couldn't dissolve protein clumps as well as normal controls — suggesting that Hsp104 was needed to untangle gnarled proteins.

From yeast to worms to humans, this stress response and its primary regulator, heat shock factor 1 (HSF1), help normal cells adapt to harsh environments, including the presence of heavy metals, high salt concentrations, low oxygen levels, and of course increased temperatures.

Simon's strategy is to compare the effects of a drug on a normal strain of yeast and a strain with a mutation in one of the many genes that affect normal cell division - a property that is disrupted in cancerous cells.

Lindquist's group focused on a yeast protein called sup35, part of the normal yeast machinery for making all the other proteins in the cell.

When the immune system has been compromised, or when the normal lining of the gut becomes damaged, the yeast, instead of remaining within the intestinal tract where they belong, can metamorphose into its fungal form sending out rhizomes (roots) to penetrate the walls of the gut, opening it to the absorption of yeast cells, particles of cells, and the toxins these micro organisms produce enter the interior of the body and pass into the bloodstream.

Coz it improves cell communication, improves your immune system's stability - can recognize whether it's a virus, whether it's yeast, parasites as opposed to uhm normal cell right?

In normal healthy conditions Candida exists as harmless oval yeast cells.
