Abstract excerpt
Recently, the academic interest in the yeast Torulaspora delbrueckii has increased notably due to its high resistance to several types of stress, including salt and osmotic imbalance. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying these unusual properties are poorly understood. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the high-salt response is mediated by calcineurin, a conserved Ca(2+)/calmodulin-modulated protein phosphatase...
