Journal ArticleDOI

The genome sequence of the filamentous fungus Neurospora crassa

James E. Galagan, +77 more
- 24 Apr 2003 - 
TL;DR: A high-quality draft sequence of the N. crassa genome is reported, suggesting that RIP has had a profound impact on genome evolution, greatly slowing the creation of new genes through genomic duplication and resulting in a genome with an unusually low proportion of closely related genes.
Journal ArticleDOI

A subfamily of stress proteins facilitates translocation of secretory and mitochondrial precursor polypeptides

TL;DR: Depletion of a subset of 7OK stress proteins in yeast mutants shows that they are involved in the post-translational import of precursor polypeptides into both mitochondria and the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum.
Journal ArticleDOI

“Sleeping Beauty”: Quiescence in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

TL;DR: It is proposed that the processes by which a cell enters into, maintains viability in, and exits from quiescence are best viewed as an environmentally triggered cycle: the cell quiescent cycle.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stationary phase in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

TL;DR: It is proposed that cell cycle arrest coordinated with the ability to remain viable in the absence of additional nutrients provides a good operational definition of starvation-induced stationary phase.
Journal ArticleDOI

The translation machinery and 70 kd heat shock protein cooperate in protein synthesis

TL;DR: It is suggested that cytosolic hsp70 aids in the passage of the nascent polypeptide chain through the ribosome in a manner analogous to the role played by organelle-localized hsp 70 in the transport of proteins across membranes.
