Genetics of yeast

In deciding what to put in and what to leave out, preference has been given to items that are thought likely to be useful to the reader or give an understanding of the current situation. This leads to information on nutrition being included while the genetics of yeast have been left out.

In 1966,1 also started a long-term project on the molecular genetics of yeast mitochondria. This model system provided important results as far as both the organization and the evolution of eukaryotic genomes are concerned. These findings will be briefly presented and discussed in Part 2 of this book. In the 1960 s we also performed a series of investigations on the physical chemistry of DNA (see, for instance, Froelich et al., 1963 Freund and Bernardi, 1963) and on transforming DNA from Haemophilus influenzae (Chevallier and Bernardi, 1965, 1968 Bernardi and Bach, 1968 Kopecka et al., 1973).

Saccharomyces cerevisiae is well characterized biochemically and genetically and was the organism of choice for most of the eady experiments. However, heterologous expression seems to be better in some of the industrial strains of yeasts such as Pichiapastoris Hansenulapolymorpha Kluyveromyces lactis and Yarrowia lipolytica (25—28).
