I'm planning to do a Bio IA.

If possible it needs to be something related to yeast.

No measuring respiration or fermentation. Already Done.

Make sure that it is appropriate for a Senior IA.

No elementary cool magic trick experiments.

If you don't know what an IA is don't answer. (IB Students)

Look into Antimicrobial Peptides and the usage of yeasts to fight the bacterial resistance to antibiotics. Due to the rising bacterial resistance, scientists are using Antimicrobial Peptides (AMPs) as an alternate way to fight this crisis.

Where does yeast come into play? Yeasts are becoming a go-to organism for genetic engineering and recombinant protein production and a source to idenitfy how these AMPs work so that we could possibly target those pathways.
