The yeast FIT2 homologs are necessary to maintain cellular proteostasis and membrane lipid homeostasis by Yap, Wei Sheng, Shyu Jr., Peter, Gaspar, Maria Laura, Jesch, Stephen A., Marvalim, Charlie, Prinz, William A., Henry, Susan A., Thibault, Guillaume

“…While LD biogenesis and basal endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-induced unfolded protein response (UPR) remain unaltered in ScFIT mutants, SCS3 was found to be essential for proper stress-induced UPR activation and for viability in the absence of the sole yeast UPR transducer IRE1 Owing to not having a functional UPR, cells with mutated SCS3 exhibited an accumulation of triacylglycerol within the ER along with aberrant LD morphology, suggesting that there is a UPR-dependent compensatory mechanism that acts to mitigate lack of SCS3 Additionally, SCS3 was necessary to maintain phospholipid homeostasis. …”

Financial reporting quality and audit firms’ past experiences of litigation by Li, Bing

“…This study investigates whether financial reporting quality is affected by an audit firm’s experience of litigation in the recent past. I find that the likelihood of an accounting misstatement and the magnitudes of misstatements are significantly lower for non-Big 4 auditors who recently suffered high litigation compared with non-Big 4 auditors who did not. …”

Genetic, genomic and systems biology analysis of adaptive evolution of budding yeast to the deletion of essential genes by Liu, Gaowen

“…However previous studies in budding yeast challenged this view by showing that mutants deleted of essential or non-essential genes are capable of accumulating compensatory mutations and resume viability, suggesting that essentiality is not an intrinsic gene property but depends on the cellular capacity to evolve. …”
