Systems biology requires model organisms that allow detailed studies to be performed rapidly, accurately and reproducibly. Such model systems are important driving forces for elucidating the principle properties of biomolecules, for developing general concepts for the quantitative description of living cells, and for generating the computational tools for systems analyses. The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae serves as an excellent model system. To coordinate efforts and to bring the yeast research and systems biology communities together, the Yeast Systems Biology Network has recently been started.
系统生物学需要能让详细研究得以快速、准确且可重复进行的模式生物。这样的模式系统是阐明生物分子基本特性、发展用于定量描述活细胞的通用概念以及生成用于系统分析的计算工具的重要驱动力。酿酒酵母是一种出色的模式系统。为了协调各方努力并将酵母研究和系统生物学领域的团体汇聚在一起,酵母系统生物学网络最近已启动。
