Cell wall dynamics in yeast.
The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is the first fungus for which the structure of the cell wall is known at the molecular level. It is a dynamic and highly regulated structure. This is vividly illustrated when the cell wall is damaged and a salvage pathway becomes active, resulting in compensatory changes in the wall.
