Current and novel approaches in yeast cell death research.
Cell Death and Differentiation 2024 May 8
The study of cell death mechanisms in fungi, particularly yeasts, has gained substantial interest in recent decades driven by the potential for biotechnological advancements and therapeutic interventions. Examples include the development of robust yeast strains for industrial fermentations and high-value compound production, novel food preservation strategies against spoilage yeasts, and the identification of targets for treating fungal infections in the clinic. In this review, we discuss a wide range of methods to characterize cellular alterations associated with yeast cell death, noting the advantages and limitations. We describe assays to monitor reversible events versus those that mark a commitment to cell death (point-of-no-return), as these distinctions are important to decipher the underlying regulatory mechanisms. Several well-known challenges remain, including the varied susceptibilities to death within a cell population and the delineation of detailed cell death mechanisms. The identification and characterization of morphologically distinct subsets of dying yeast cells within dynamic yeast populations provides opportunities to reveal novel vulnerabilities and survival mechanisms. Elucidating the intricacies of yeast regulated cell death (yRCD) will contribute to the advancement of scientific knowledge and foster breakthrough discoveries with broad-ranging implications.
