Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a model eukaryote for studies on mitochondriogenesis.
A great deal of progress has been made in elucidating the underlying mechanisms which control the interplay between the nuclear and mitochondrial genomes during biogenesis of mitochondria. The advantage of using the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae in these studies over other eukaryotic cells will be discussed.
