TLDR
Consistent with its exhibiting a function in yeast akin to that in the plant, CTS rescued the oleate growth phenotype of the pxa1 pxa2Δ mutant, and restored β-oxidation of fatty acids with a range of chain lengths and varying degrees of desaturation.About:

A Familiar Ring to It: Biosynthesis of Plant Benzoic Acids
TL;DR: Current overview on the metabolism of plant BAs is presented with a focus on the recent progress made on isolation and functional characterization of genes encoding biosynthetic enzymes and intracellular transporters, and approaches for deciphering the complex interactions between pathways of the BAs network are discussed.

Fatty Acid and Lipid Transport in Plant Cells.
TL;DR: Different transport mechanisms for land plants and green algae - in the model systems Arabidopsis thaliana, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii - are compared, thereby providing a current perspective on protein-mediated FA and lipid trafficking in photosynthetic cells.

New heterologous modules for classical or PCR‐based gene disruptions in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
TL;DR: A dominant resistance module, for selection of S. cerevisiae transformants, which entirely consists of heterologous DNA is constructed and tested, and some kanMX modules are flanked by 470 bp direct repeats, promoting in vivo excision with frequencies of 10–3–10–4.

Yeast vectors for the controlled expression of heterologous proteins in different genetic backgrounds.
Yeast vectors for the controlled expression of heterologous proteins in different genetic backgrounds (Saccharomyces cerevisiae; plasmid; multicopy vector; polylinker; promoter; heterologous expression; cDNA cloning)
TL;DR: In this paper, an expression system for Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Sc) is developed which allows the constitutive expression of proteins at different levels over a range of three orders of magnitude and in different genetic backgrounds.
