摘要
Yeast is widely used as a model organism for investigating many aspects of eukaryotic cell biology. It combines a high level of conservation between its cellular processes and those of mammalian cells with advantages such as simple growth requirements, rapid cell division, ease of genetic manipulation and a wealth of experimental tools for genome-wide analysis of biological functions. How can these advantages be put to use in anticancer drug discovery?
