The ability to precisely engineer yeast, coupled with its genetic and metabolic similarity to tumor cells, has enabled researchers to use this organism in cancer research. Here we review advances that leveraged yeast as a model organism for studying cancer biology, including the investigation of tumorigenic mechanisms, development of advanced technologies for drug discovery, production of anticancer drugs on an industrial scale, and delivering the next generation of immunotherapies.
