    Science4Everyone – Yeast: the model organism expert in pizza baking

    The use of yeasts as a model organism is not so dated. The evidence that yeasts and mammalian cells have genes that encode similar proteins encourages the possibility of studying the biological function of unknown enzymes in a more simplified and versatile unicellular model. Do not miss the opportunity to discover this amazing model!
