Project description:During fermentation Saccharomyces yeast produces various aroma-active metabolites determining the different characteristics of aroma and taste in fermented beverages. Amino acid utilization by yeast during brewer´s wort fermentation is seen as linked to flavour profile. To better understand the relationship between the biosynthesis of aroma relevant metabolites and the importance of amino acids, DNA microarrays were performed for Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain S81 and Saccharomyces pastorianus var. carlsbergensis strain S23, respectively. Thereby, changes in transcription of genes were measured, which are associated with amino acid assimilation and its derived aroma-active compounds during fermentation.
Project description:Saccharomyces cerevisiae is an excellent microorganism for industrial succinic acid production, but high succinic acid concentration will inhibit the growth of Saccharomyces cerevisiae then reduce the production of succinic acid. Through analysis the transcriptomic data of Saccharomyces cerevisiae with different genetic backgrounds under different succinic acid stress, we hope to find the response mechanism of Saccharomyces cerevisiae to succinic acid.
Project description:In wine fermentation, the blending of non-Saccharomyces yeast with Saccharomyces cerevisiae to improve the complexity of wine has become common practice, but data regarding the impact on yeast physiology and on genetic and metabolic regulation remain limited. Here we describe a transcriptomic analysis of single species and mixed species fermentations.
Project description:The budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a popular host to be used to produce recombinant proteins. Here we studied three yeast strains with different productivity using the RNA-seq data to elucidate the mechanisms for improving protein production.

Project description:MNase-seq Experiments from Calorie Restricted and Non-Restricted Yeast from WT, ISW2DEL and ISW2K215R strains We used MNase-seq to study genome-wide nucleosome positions under Calorie Restricted and Non-restricted Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Project description:Industrial bioethanol production may involve a low pH environment,improving the tolerance of S. cerevisiae to a low pH environment caused by inorganic acids may be of industrial importance to control bacterial contamination, increase ethanol yield and reduce production cost. Through analysis the transcriptomic data of Saccharomyces cerevisiae with different ploidy under low pH stress, we hope to find the tolerance mechanism of Saccharomyces cerevisiae to low pH.
Project description:Metabolic engineering of Saccharomyces cerevisiae for efficient monoterpenes production was mostly restricted by the limited tolerance to these chemicals. Understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying the tolerance of S. cerevisiae to monoterpenes was essential for the de novo biosynthesis these chemicals in S. cerevisiae. In this study, commercial oligonucleotide microarray assays were performed to investigate the global response of S. cerevisiae to typical monoterpene D-limonene under transcriptional level. Yeast cell treated with sublethal dose of D-liomonene, gene change profiles were investigated at transcription level and the microarry data were also verified with quantitative real time PCR.
