Fred Sherman was a prominent yeast geneticist and my mentor in graduate school. Fred passed away in September 2013 at the age of 81. In this minireview, I describe what it was like to know Fred and be in his lab from 1977 to 1982, the extraordinarily exciting time when the recombinant DNA revolution hit yeast genetics.
弗雷德·谢尔曼是一位杰出的酵母遗传学家,也是我读研究生时的导师。弗雷德于 2013 年 9 月去世,享年 81 岁。在这篇简评中,我将描述在 1977 年至 1982 年期间与弗雷德相识并在他的实验室工作的经历,以及当时正是重组 DNA 革命席卷酵母遗传学的令人兴奋的时刻。
