Yeast Power: Revolutionizing Microbial Genome Engineering for Synthetic Biology and Pathogen Response

Abstract

Elaine Ostrander

The unassuming yeast species, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, frequently takes center stage in the fields of microbiology and synthetic biology. Known for its integral role in baking and brewing, this versatile microorganism has been gaining increasing recognition for its remarkable capabilities in genetic engineering. Recent breakthroughs have elevated S. cerevisiae to become a resilient and effective host for replicating microbial genomes, unlocking fresh possibilities for manipulating bacteria and viruses. In this article, we venture into the intriguing domain of S. cerevisiae as a host for microbial genomes and investigate the recent advancements that have facilitated streamlined genome engineering and the introduction or modification of microbial genomes through transplantation or transfection.
