Project description:In this study we investigate the molecular physiology of the main S. cerevisiae commercial strain (PE-2) used on Brazilian bioethanol process under two distinct conditions: typical (TF) and flocculated (co-aggregated - FL) fermentation. Transcriptional machinery of PE-2 was assessed by high throughput sequencing-based methods (RNA-seq) during industrial fed-batch fermentations. Data from comparative analysis revealed distinct transcriptional profiles among conditions, characterized mainly by a deep gene repression on FL process.
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.

Data from comparative analysis revealed distinct transcriptional profiles among conditions, characterized mainly by a deep gene repression on FL process. We investigated the transcriptional changes in S. cerevisiae PE-2 strain under industrial fermentation conditions using RNA-seq protocols. We analyzed 13 fermentation time-points where 6 time-points on typical fermentation conditions (TF) and 7 time-points on flocculate conditions(FL). The raw data have been submitted to SRA as SRP014755
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:Proteomic analysis of the extracellular matrix of Saccharomyces cerevisiae W303-1A Wt and the isogenic mutant strain gup1Δ during the development of multicellular overlays.
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:Saccharomyces cerevisiae IMS0002 which, after metabolic and evolutionary engineering, ferments the pentose sugar arabinose. Glucose and arabinose-limited anaerobic chemostat cultures of IMS0002 and its non-evolved ancestor IMS0001 were subjected to transcriptome analysis to identify key genetic changes contributing to efficient arabinose utilization by strain IMS0002.
