| Methoden: |
The De Virgilio Lab at the Dept. of Biology, University of Fribourg, in Switzerland, is interested in nutrient signalling pathways (including, but not limited to TORC1 signaling) and their role in the control of cell proliferation and quiescence in the model organism Saccharomyces cerevisiae (yeast). Our methodological approaches include a combination of genetic, biochemical, and molecular techniques and are aimed at understanding the basic mechanisms that control entry into, survival in, and exit from quiescence.
