One of the common causes of water pollution is the presence of toxic dye-based effluents, which can pose a serious threat to the ecosystem and human health. The application of Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S. cerevisiae) for wastewater decolorization has been widely investigated due to their efficient removal and eco-friendly treatments. This review attempts to create an awareness of different forms and methods of using Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S. cerevisiae) for wastewater decolorization through a systematic approach. Overall, some suggestions on classification of dyes and related environmental/health problems, and treatment methods are discussed. Besides, the mechanisms of dye removal by S. cerevisiae including biosorption, bioaccumulation, and biodegradation and cell immobilization methods such as adsorption, covalent binding, encapsulation, entrapment, and self-aggregation are discussed. This review would help to inspire the exploration of more creative methods for applications and modification of S. cerevisiae and its further practical applications.

Autophagy plays a crucial role in maintaining cellular homeostasis in response to various stimuli. Compared to research on nutrient deprivation-induced autophagy, the understanding of the molecular mechanisms and physiological/pathological significance of autophagy triggered by energy deprivation remains limited. A primary focus of our lab is to elucidate how cells sense energy deprivation and initiate autophagy.

Large multiprotein machines are central to many biological processes. However, stoichiometric determination of protein complex subunits in their native states presents a significant challenge. This study addresses the limitations of current tools in accuracy and precision by introducing concatemer-assisted stoichiometry analysis (CASA).

Selective pressure acts on the codon use, optimizing multiple, overlapping signals that are only partially understood. We trained AI models to predict codons given their amino acid sequence in the eukaryotes and and the bacteria and to study the extent to which we can learn patterns in naturally occurring codons to improve predictions. We trained our models on a subset of the proteins and evaluated their predictions on large, separate sets of proteins of varying lengths and expression levels.

In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, SKS1 mRNA encoding a glucose-sensing serine/threonine kinase belongs to "nucleus-retained" (NR) mRNAs representing a subset of otherwise normal transcripts, which exhibits slow nuclear export and excessively long nuclear dwell time. Nuclear retention of the SKS1 mRNA triggered by a 202 nt "export-retarding" nuclear zip code (NZ) element promotes its rapid degradation in the nucleus by the nuclear exosome/CTEXT. In this investigation, we demonstrate that Dbp2p, an ATP-dependent DEAD-box RNA helicase binds to SKS1 and other NR-mRNAs and thereby inhibits their export by antagonizing with the binding of the export factors Mex67p/Yra1p.

This study aimed to compare the effects of cellobiose hydrolysis, whether occurring inside or outside the cell, on the ability of Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains to ferment this sugar and then apply the most effective strategy to industrial S. cerevisiae strains. Firstly, two recombinant laboratory S.
