Journal ArticleDOI
Transcriptional Regulation in Yeast during Diauxic Shift and Stationary Phase
TL;DR: Because cells from multicellular eukaryotic organisms spend most of their life in G(0) phase, understanding transcriptional regulation in quiescence will inform other fields, such as cancer, development, and aging.
Journal ArticleDOI
Acetyl-CoA carboxylase regulates global histone acetylation
Luciano Galdieri,Ales Vancura +1 more
TL;DR: The data indicate that Acc1p activity regulates the availability of acetyl-CoA for histone acetyltransferases, thus representing a link between intermediary metabolism and epigenetic mechanisms of transcriptional regulation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metformin as an Anticancer Agent
TL;DR: Recent advances in elucidating the molecular mechanisms that are relevant for metformin use in cancer treatment are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Novel Membrane-bound Glutathione S-Transferase Functions in the Stationary Phase of the Yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae
TL;DR: The identification and characterization of the two Saccharomyces cerevisiae genes, GTT1 and GTT2 (glutathionetransferase 1 and 2), coding for functional GST enzymes are reported, despite only limited similarity with GSTs from other organisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Protein acetylation and acetyl coenzyme a metabolism in budding yeast.
TL;DR: Fluctuations in the concentration of acetyl-CoA are translated into dynamic protein acetylations that regulate a variety of cell functions, including transcription, replication, DNA repair, cell cycle progression, and aging.
