Uptake Mechanisms and Physiological Effects of Furanic Compounds From the Maillard Reaction in Budding Yeast Matos et al. use genetic approaches in Saccharomyces cerevisiae to show toxicity of different furanic compounds can be modulated via regulation of surface nutrient transporters. Distinct furanic comp....

In this #Yeast research article, Laise Cedraz Pinto Matos, Amy Milburn and @yorkyeast.bsky.social investigated the physiological effects of #furanic compounds from the Maillard reaction in yeast & found that they have different uptake, efflux, and toxicity.
