This paper investigates lactose and galactose metabolism in Sungouiella intermedia using a genome-scale metabolic model and experimental data to identify its potential as a cell factory for producing galactitol and tagatose from industrial side-streams.

This study identifies three gene clusters in Candida intermedia responsible for lactose and galactose metabolism, revealing a unique regulatory network distinct from other yeasts.

This study adapts SLAM-Seq to measure mRNA half-lives in yeast, identifies NMD targets, and finds 230 novel transcripts regulated by NMD.

The paper describes a genetic trap in yeast for identifying small molecule inhibitors of SARS-CoV-2 main protease, demonstrating its effectiveness with an established inhibitor.

This study introduces a high-throughput experimental framework to screen genetic factors affecting conjugation-based antibiotic resistance transmission in E. coli.
