'''''Saccharomyces cerevisiae''''' ('''brewer's yeast''' or '''baker's yeast''') is a species of yeast (single-celled fungus microorganisms). The species has been instrumental in winemaking, baking, and brewing since ancient times. It is believed to have been originally isolated from the skin of grapes. It is one of the most intensively studied eukaryotic model organisms in molecular and cell biology, much like ''[[Escherichia coli]]'' as the model bacterium. ''S. cerevisiae'' cells are round to ovoid, 5–10 μm in diameter. It reproduces by budding.<ref>{{cite book|last=Feldmann|first=Horst|title=Yeast.
