Sulfur Metabolism Actively Promotes Initiation of Cell Division in Yeast Heidi M. Blank, Shefali Gajjar, Andrey Belyanin, Michael Polymenis* Department of Biochemistry and Biophysics, Texas AM University, College Station, Texas, United States of America Abstract Background: Sulfur metabolism is required for initiation of cell division, but whether or not it can actively promote cell division remains unknown. Methodology/Principal Findings: Here we show that yeast cells with more mtDNA have an expanded reductive phase of their metabolic cycle and an increased
