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:This study investigates the transcriptomic responses of Saccharomyces cerevisiae S96 normal and petite cells to 4-Methylcyclohexanemethanol (MCHM), a coal cleaning chemical spilled in the water supply of central West Virginia in 2014.
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:Transcriptomic study to characterize the interaction of the Penicillium expansum antifungal protein PeAfpA with the the model yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. For this, the transcriptome of S. cerevisiae BY4741 strain was compared among samples treated with increasing concentrations of PeAfpA.
Project description:High concenHigh concentration acetic acid in the fermentation medium represses cell growth, metabolism and fermentation efficiency of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which is widely used for cellulosic ethanol production. Our previous study proved that supplementation of zinc sulfate in the fermentation medium improved cell growth and ethanol fermentation performance of S. cerevisiae under acetic acid stress condition. However, the molecular mechanisms is still unclear. To explore the underlying mechanism of zinc sulfate protection against acetic acid stress, transcriptomic and proteomic analysis were performed. The changed genes and proteins are related to carbon metabolism, amino acid biosynthesis, energy metabolism, vitamin biosynthesis and stress responses. In a total, 28 genes showed same expression in transcriptomic and proteomic data, indicating that zinc sulfate affects gene expression at posttranscriptional and posttranslational levels.tration acetic acid in the fermentation medium represses cell growth, metabolism and fermentation efficiency of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which is widely used for cellulosic ethanol production.

Project description:A caffeine-resistant Saccharomyces cerevisiae mutant strain was obtained using an evolutionary engineering strategy based on successive batch cultivation at gradually increasing caffeine levels. The mutant strain Caf905-2 was selected at a caffeine concentration where its reference strain could not grow at all. Whole-genome transcriptomic analysis of Caf905-2 was performed with respect to its reference strain.
Project description:Intact nuclei from an asynchronous population of W303 Saccharomyces cerevisiae in log-phase growth were subjected to a 16-minute DNase I digestion (0.1 U/μL) at 37 °C. DNA was then recovered, and single-end Illumina sequencing libraries were prepared using the Crawford DNase-seq method (Song and Crawford, 2010).
Project description:A six array study using total gDNA recovered from two separate cultures of each of three different strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae (YB-210 or CRB, Y389 or MUSH, and Y2209 or LEP) and two separate cultures of Saccharomyces cerevisiae DBY8268. Each array measures the hybridization of probes tiled across the Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome.
