About the journal
Yeast is a journal published for the international community of yeast researchers. It contains original research articles, major and minor reviews and short communications on all aspects of Saccharomyces and other yeast genera. The topics covered include: genetics; genomics; molecular biology; cell and developmental biology; biochemistry; physiology; pathobiology; biotechnology; ecology; taxonomy; and evolution.
The journal contains three special sections: Yeast Sequencing Reports, Yeast Mapping Reports, and Yeast Functional Analysis Reports. These deal, respectively, with the systematic analysis of the sequences, placement, and function of genes. In addition, the journal promotes the collegiate activities of the yeast research community by publishing announcements of Meetings and Courses, as well as the Abstracts of major conferences.
Yeast also has a Current Awareness on Yeast section that provides a comprehensive survey of recent publications on yeasts. Thus, Yeast focusses on the most significant developments of research with unicellular fungi and is essential reading for those wishing to keep up to date with this rapidly moving field.

Permission grants should be submitted with the manuscript.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been previously published and should not be submitted for publication elsewhere while they are under consideration by Wiley. Submitted material will not be returned to the author unless specifically requested.
Authors in Japan please note. Wiley-Japan can provide authors in Japan with a list of recommended services to check and improve the English of their papers before submission. Please contact Masayo Kobayashi in the Wiley-Japan office by e-mail (editorial@wiley.co.jp) or fax (03 3556 9763) for more information, stating which journal you are submitting to.
Electronic submission. The electronic copy of the final, revised manuscript must be sent to the Editor together with the paper copy. Disks should be PC or Mac formatted; write on the disk the software package used, the name of the author and the name of the journal. We are able to use most word processing packages, but prefer Word or WordPerfect.
Illustrations must be submitted in electronic format where possible. Save each figure as a separate file, in TIFF or EPS format preferably, and include the source file. Write on the disk the software package used to create them; we favour dedicated illustration packages over tools such as Excel or Powerpoint.
Manuscript style. The language of the journal is English. All submissions including book reviews must have a title, be printed on one side of the paper, be double-line spaced and have a margin of 3cm all round. Illustrations and tables must be printed on separate sheets, and not be incorporated into the text.
The title page must list the full title, short title of up to 70 characters and names and affiliations of all authors. Give the full address, including email, telephone and fax, of the author who is to check the proofs.
Include the name(s) of any sponsor(s) of the research contained in the paper, along with grant number(s).
Supply an abstract of up to 250 words for all articles [except book reviews]. An abstract is a concise summary of the whole paper, not just the conclusions, and is understandable without reference to the rest of the paper. It should contain no citation to other published work.
Include up to eight keywords that describe your paper for indexing purposes.
The text should generally be divided into: Introduction; Materials and Methods; Results and Discussion. Please avoid section numbering.
Major reviews will be commissioned, but minor reviews and original research papers are solicited, together with any other reports, letters or announcements of potential interest to the readers of the journal. There is no restriction on length, although manuscripts may be returned for shortening at the discretion of the editor.
Books for review and commercial literature should be sent to Professor SG Oliver.
Nomenclature. When using genetic nomenclature authors should follow the guidelines laid down in Strathern JN, Jones EW, Broach JR. 1981. The Molecular Biology of the Yeast Saccharomyces; Life Cycle and Inheritance. Appendix 1, pp. 639-640, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratories. Authors naming a new gene or renaming an old gene are asked to send details to Professor D. Botstein, Department of Genetics 5337, Medical Center, School of Medicine, Stanford, CA 94305, USA. It is intended that an annual list of gene designations will be published in Yeast.
Authors should use yeast names consistent with Barnett JA, Payne RW, Yarrow D. 2000. Yeasts: Characteristics and Identification, Third Edition, Cambridge University Press.
Nucleic Acid Sequences. Any sequence information included in a manuscript MUST be submitted to either the EMBL data library or GenBank, and the Accession Number included at the end of the Abstract section, before the paper will be published. At the time of submission any sequence data MUST be submitted on a floppy disk in addition to any hard copy included in the manuscript.
Protein sequences, which have been determined by direct sequencing of the protein, must be submitted to SWISS-PROT at the EMBL Outstation - The European Bioinformatics Institute. Please note that we do not provide accession numbers, IN ADVANCE, for protein sequences that are the result of translation of nucleic acid sequences. These translations will automatically be forwarded to us from the EMBL nucleotide database and are assigned SWISS-PROT accession numbers on incorporation into TrEMBL.
Results from characterization experiments should also be submitted to SWISS-PROT at the EBI. This can include such information as function, subcellular location, subunit etc.
Contact information: SWISS-PROT submissions, European Bioinformatics Institute, Wellcome Trust Genome Campus, Hinxton, Cambridge, CB10 ISD, UK; telephone: +44 1223 494400; fax: +44 1223 494472; e-mail: datasubs@edi.ac.uk (for sequence submissions); update@edi.ac.uk (for characterization information); WWW URL: http://www.ebi.ac.uk
Abbreviations. All abbreviations must be defined in full in the first instance.
Reference style. References should be quoted in the text as name and year within square brackets and listed at the end of the paper alphabetically. For reviews only, references should be cited by number in the text. The reference list should be ordered alphabetically and numbered in sequence. Hence references in the text will not be in numerical sequence. All references must be complete and accurate. Online citations should include date of access. Use MedLine abbreviations for journal names. They can be found at: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/jrbrowser.cgi. If necessary, cite unpublished or personal work in the text but do not include it in the reference list. References should be listed in the following style:

Illustrations. Supply each illustration on a separate sheet, with the lead author's name and the figure number, with the top of the figure indicated, on the reverse. Supply original photographs; photocopies or previously printed material will not be used. Line artwork must be high-quality laser output (not photocopies). Tints are not acceptable; lettering must be of a reasonable size that would still be clearly legible upon reduction, and consistent within each figure and set of figures. Where a key to symbols is required, please include this in the artwork itself, not in the figure legend. Supply artwork at the intended size for printing. The artwork must be sized to the text width of 76 mm (1 column) and 156 mm (2 column).
The cost of printing colour illustrations in the journal will be charged to the author. There is a charge for printing colour illustrations of 600 pounds per page. If colour illustrations are supplied electronically in either TIFF or EPS format, they may be used in the PDF of the article at no cost to the author, even if this illustration was printed in black and white in the journal. The PDF will appear on the Wiley InterScience site.
SPECIAL SECTIONS
Yeast contains three special sections in which short communications in the designated areas may be published. Such communications should be submitted to Professor SG Oliver and will undergo a rapid review process. Speedy publication will also be facilitated by the submission of material on diskette.
Yeast Sequencing Reports
Sequence data may be published rapidly with little accompanying commentary beyond the precise location of the sequenced region within its chromosome. Sequence submissions must comply with the rules laid down in the section on Nucleic Acid Sequences above. The minimal continuous sequence acceptable for publication will not be tightly defined in order to permit the rapid publication of short sequences of high biological interest. In the absence of such considerations, the minimal sequence shall be 5.0 kb.
Apart from the characterisation of individual genes, the nucleotide sequence itself will not be usually published. Rather, authors should provide a detailed 'features table' with co-ordinates.
The format of sequences should be kept simple, being confined to nucleotides and amino acids. Important regions will be highlighted by nucleotide sequence number in an accompanying glossary. Details of new genes will be transmitted to D. Botstein for inclusion in the genetic map which, as it is now held in electronic form by the journal, will be updated regularly.
Sequencing Reports should be submitted to Professor SG Oliver at the address above.
Yeast Mapping Reports
The journal will accept short communications which report the determination of the relative position of genes on the genetic map of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. While evidence from pulsed field gels will be accepted for the primary assignment of a cloned gene to a chromosome, genetic map position should be determined by tetrad analysis, preferably using three-point crosses. Mapping Reports should give full details of such analyses and the computational methods used to calculate map distances. The Section Editors reserve the right to re-calculate such distances following a re-appraisal of the data submitted, or in the light of other data available to them. Professor Botstein will also advise authors on the naming of genes in order to avoid confusion in the literature.
Mapping Reports should be submitted directly to professor SG Oliver at the above address.
Functional Analysis Reports
The journal will accept papers which contribute to the systematic analysis of the function of novel genes discovered as a result of genome sequenciing. These Reports may include descriptions of new reagents (plasmids, strains etc) or techniques which facilitate the systematic analysis of gene function, as well as accounts of the results of such systematic studies.
Functional Analysis Reports should be submitted to Professor SG Oliver at the address above.
Copyright. To enable the publisher to disseminate the author's work to the fullest extent, the author must sign a Copyright Transfer Agreement, transferring copyright in the article from the author to the publisher, and submit the original signed agreement with the article presented for publication. A copy of the agreement to be used (which may be photocopied) can be found in the first issue of each volume of Yeast. Copies may also be obtained from the journal editor or publisher, or may be printed from this website.
Further Information. Manuscripts will be returned if rejected, together with any referees reports. Manuscripts will not be returned if accepted, but the publisher will supply proofs to the main author prior to publication for checking. This stage is to be used only to correct errors that may have been introduced during the production process. Prompt return of the corrected proofs, preferably within two days of receipt, will minimise the risk of the paper being held over to a later issue. 25 complimentary offprints will be provided to the author who checked the proofs, unless otherwise indicated. Further offprints and copies of the journal may be ordered. There is no page charge to authors. Manuscripts will be returned if rejected, together with any referees reports. Manuscripts will not be returned if accepted, but the publisher will supply proofs to the main author prior to publication.
