Yeasty goodness

I was shopping at the Food Lion today and decided to buy stuff so I could make some bread. Well, I had the little jar of Saccharomyces cerevisiae in my hands and I was like: it would be so cool to grow these things myself. I mean, seriously. That's like the best pet ever, screw goldfish. Okay, NFCs are better because they're cuddly, but still. It's going to be so much fun to figure out how these...

..., and clones of all four 1/4 genomes with the correct sequence were identified. The complete synthetic genome was assembled by transformationassociated recombination (TAR) cloning in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, then isolated and sequenced. A clone with the correct sequence was identified. The methods described here will be generally useful for constructing large DNA molecules from ...

...-year college student at an agricultural university, who has a unique ability to see and communicate with micro-organisms and bacteria. It's funny and educational at the same time. My favorite microbe so far is Saccharomyces cerevisiae which is in the icon I'm using. It's funny, the more I think about Sawaki, the more I'm reminded of Paul Ehrlich. I remember him most for coming up with ...
