This poster offers a birds-eye glance at some of the complexity that goes on inside just a single cell. All of these pathways have to be coordinated with environmental cues, like changing sugar sources, and major cell processes like division.
Most of these pathways happen in our cells too, and many of the key the enzyme players in yeast are conserved in humans as well. By figuring all of this out in yeast, we learn about the complexity inside of our own cells.
