RNA maturation in mitochondria of S. cerevisiae and S. pombe.

TL;DR: The aim of this review is to compare recent data about transcription and generation of 5' and 3' ends of mature RNA transcripts in S. cerevisiae and S. pombe, two attractive model systems enabling investigation of various aspects of mitochondrial genetics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analysis of the hypoxia-induced ADH2 promoter of the respiratory yeast Pichia stipitis reveals a new mechanism for sensing of oxygen limitation in yeast.

TL;DR: The very first promoter analysis in P. stipitis revealed a hitherto unknown mechanism of oxygen sensing in yeast, which has similarities to the mammalian HIF‐1 system, which is inducible by Co2+ but not by cyanide.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular Cloning of Alcohol Dehydrogenase Genes of the Yeast Pichia stipitis and Identification of the Fermentative ADH

TL;DR: Two Pichia stipitis ADH genes (PsADH1 and PsADH2) were isolated by complementation of a Saccharomyces cerevisiae Adh−‐mutant and enabled the transformants to grow in the presence of antimycin A on glucose, to use ethanol as sole carbon source and made them sensitive to allylalcohol.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transcription and RNA-processing in fission yeast mitochondria.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors systematically examined transcription and RNA-processing in mitochondria of the petite-negative fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe.
