Abstract

The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae plays a central role both in biotechnology, the profitable exploitation of biological systems by humans, and in molecular biology, the study and manipulation of biological systems at the molecular level. Its contribution to biotechnology extends back over 2000 years; its contribution to molecular biology, although more recent, is equally impressive because it is currently the most molecularly characterised eukaryotic organism on the planet.
