2/ Live Long and Prosper, Lil’ Yeasty Boys Yeast cells usually live for about one week. Yeast die for two reasons: Either their nucleolus (where the DNA is kept) degrades and dies, or their mitochondria whimpers out and they stop making energy. Printed vaccines caused mice to have a faster immune response.
