Yeasts are among man's closest unicellular relatives and are arguably the most powerful models for investigating molecular mechanisms involved in eukaryotic cell function. This article focuses on the key features of yeast model systems, how they were developed and how they can now be used to answer important questions that are still poorly understood.
