microPublications - latest yeast papers

​microPublication Biology is part of the emerging genre of rapidly-published research communications. microPublications publishes brief, novel findings, negative and/or reproduced results, and results which may initially lack a broader scientific narrative. Each article is peer-reviewed, assigned a DOI, and indexed through PubMed and PubMedCentral.

Consider microPubublications when you have a result that doesn't necessarily fit into a larger story, but will be of value to others.

Latest yeast microPublications:

  • Eftimie A, Meyer D (2025) Transcription Regulatory Protein SIN3 (YOL004W) Influences Mutation Rates in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. MicroPubl Biol 2025


All yeast microPublications can be found in SGD.
