Project description:We develop a CRISPR-Cas assisted random mutation (CARM) technology for whole genome mutagenesis. As a proof-of-principle, CARM was applied to evolve the capacity of Saccharomyces cerevisiae to produce β-carotene. Thees files are transcriptomic analysis of finally evolutionary strain C7-143, processed evolutionary strain C3-06 and C5-63, and the original strains C0 and BY47419.
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:A propolis-resistant Saccharomyces cerevisiae mutant strain was obtained using an evolutionary engineering strategy based on successive batch cultivation under gradually increasing propolis levels. The mutant strain FD 11 was selected at a propolis concentration that the reference strain could not grow at all. Whole-genome transcriptomic analysis of FD11 was performed with respect to its reference strain to determine differences in gene expression levels between the two strains. Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Project description:In this study, we have developed a highly SO2-stress-resistant yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) strain [F3] using evolutionary engineering, by successive batch selection at gradually increased SO2 levels. The evolved F3 strain was resistant to 1.0 mM SO2 stress, which was strongly inhibitory to the reference strain. Whole-transcriptomic analysis of F3 was performed with respect to its reference strain to determine differences in gene expression levels between the two strains. Saccharomyces cerevisiae
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:This study explores the connection between changes in gene expression and the genes that determine strain survival during suspension culture, using the model eukaryotic organism, Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The Saccharomyces cerevisiae homozygous diploid deletion pool, and the BY4743 parental strain were grown for 18 hours in a rotating wall vessel, a suspension culture device optimized to minimize the delivered shear. In addition to the reduced shear conditions, the rotating wall vessels were also placed in a static position or in a shaker in order to change the amount of shear stress on the cells.
