The residual water and dry matter condition in the lyophilized biomass of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae was studied by NMR-relaxation technique. It was shown that the slow component of the transverse magnetization NMR signal spectrum corresponding to the so-called "isolated mobile water" was caused in fact by the interaction of the disaccharide trehalose with the cell biopolymers. The big amount of hydrogen bonds formed by trehalose and their three-dimensional orientation closed to the orientation in water clusters assure the valuable functioning of this disaccharide during the process of removing water out of cells. When stationary phase yeast biomass containing a lot of trehalose was dried the cell organelles condition remained practically unchanged what led to the high resistance of such cells to dehydration. 相似文献

The OH stretch mode from water and organic hydroxyl groups have strong infrared absorption, the position of the band going to lower frequency with increased H-bonding. This band was used to study water in trehalose and glycerol solutions and in genetically modified yeast cells containing varying amounts of trehalose. Concentration-dependent changes in water structure induced by trehalose and glycerol in solution were detected, consistent with an increase of lower-energy H-bonds and interactions at the expense of higher-energy interactions. This result suggests that these molecules disrupt the water H-bond network in such a way as to strengthen molecule-water interactions while perturbing water-water interactions. The molecule-induced changes in the water H-bond network seen in solution do not translate to observable differences in yeast cells that are trehalose-deficient and trehalose-rich. Although comparison of yeast with low and high trehalose showed no observable effect on intracellular water structure, the structure of water in cells is different from that in bulk water. Cellular water exhibits a larger preference for lower-energy H-bonds or interactions over higher-energy interactions relative to that shown in bulk water. This effect is likely the result of the high concentration of biological molecules present in the cell. The ability of water to interact directly with polar groups on biological molecules may cause the preference seen for lower-energy interactions. 相似文献

In this study, corn starch was used as the substrate for cell growth and trehalose accumulation by Saccharomycopsis fibuligera A11. Effect of different aeration rates, agitation speeds, and concentrations of corn starch on direct conversion of corn
starch to trehalose by S. fibuligera A11 were examined using a Biostat B2 2-l fermentor. We found that the optimal conditions for direct conversion of corn starch
to trehalose by this yeast strain were that agitation speed was 200 rpm, aeration rate was 4.0 l/min, concentration of corn
starch was 2.0% (w/v), initial pH was 5.5, fermentation temperature was 30°C. Under these conditions, over 22.9 g of trehalose
per 100 g of cell dry weight was accumulated in the yeast cells, cell mass was 15.2 g/l of the fermentation medium, 0.12%
(w/v) of reducing sugar, and 0.21% (w/v) of total sugar were left in the fermented medium within 48 h of the fermentation.
It was found that trehalose in the yeast cells could be efficiently extracted by the hot distilled water (80°C). After isolation
and purification, the crystal trehalose was obtained from the extract of the cells. 相似文献

The physiology of a commercial strain of bakers' yeast was studied in terms of the cell composition under different growth
conditions and of its response to stress. The study comprised fed-batch experiments since this is the system used in bakers'
yeast industry. The classical fed-batch fermentation procedure was modified in that the yeast cells were continuously grown
to a steady-state at a dilution rate of 0.1/h in order to achieve more or less the same initial starting point in terms of
cell composition. This steady-state culture was then switched to fed-batch concomitantly with exposure to stress. The highest
amount of trehalose accumulation was achieved when nutrient depletion and heat stress were applied concomitantly. The highest
amount of trehalose, 12%, was attained in cells stressed by both nitrogen depletion and heat stress. The protein content remained
constant, although with some oscillations, at a value of 30% throughout this dual stress experiment. 相似文献

The disaccharide trehalose is widely distributed in nature and can be found in many organisms, including bacteria, fungi, plants, invertebrates and mammals. Due to its particular physical features, trehalose is able to protect the integrity of the cell against a variety of environmental injuries and nutritional limitations. In addition, data available on several species of bacteria and yeast suggest specific functions for trehalose in these organisms. Bacteria can use exogenous trehalose as the sole source of carbon and energy as well as synthesize enormous amounts of the disaccharide as compatible solute. This ability to accumulate trehalose is the result of an elaborate genetic system, which is regulated by osmolarity. Some mycobacteria contain sterified trehalose as a structural component of the cell wall, whereas yeast cells are largely unable to grow on trehalose as carbon source. In these lower eukaryotes, trehalose appears to play a dual function: as a reserve compound, mainly stored in vegetative resting cells and reproductive structures, and as a stress metabolite. Recent findings also point to important biotechnological applications for trehalose. 相似文献

Preservation of genetic banks of yeast strains as well as of any kind of eukaryotic cells during dehydration and subsequent rehydration depends upon the maintenance of the integrity of the cell membrane. Trehalose has been successfully used as a non-toxic cryoprotectant for plant cells (Bhandal et al., 1985), as well as for lobster sarcoplasmic vesicles (Rudolph and Crowe, 1985). The hypothesis underlying these observations is that the disaccharide avoids fusion of membranes by replacing water molecules in the bilayer (Crowe et al., 1984). The viability of yeast strains submitted to different drying techniques is reported in this paper. Mutant strains with defects in the regulation of the trehalose-6-phosphate synthase complex were compared. Yeast strains dried in layers at 37°C for 6 h did not lose their viability, however, they died thereafter at 5°C, unless trehalose was used for resuspending the cells before drying. It should be noted that no trehalose accumulation was seen during drying at 37°C under our experimental conditions. In experiments in which cells were frozen at −120°C, addition of 10% trehalose to the suspending buffer had a significant protective effect. On the other hand, a mutant strain with an extremely high trehalose-6-phosphate synthase activity showed an intrinsic capacity for survival which did not depend upon addition of exogenous trehalose. This raises the question of the location of the internal trehalose pool and whether it could replace the externally added cryoprotectant. 相似文献

Preservation of frozen yeast cells by trehalose. 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9

Two different methods commonly used to preserve intact yeast cells-freezing and freeze-drying-were compared. Different yeast cells submitted to these treatments were stored for 28 days and cell viability assessed during this period. Intact yeast cells showed to be less tolerant to freeze-drying than to freezing. The rate of survival for both treatments could be enhanced by exogenous trehalose (10%) added during freezing and freeze-drying treatments or by a combination of two procedures: a pre-exposure of cells to 40 degrees C for 60 min and addition of trehalose. A maximum survival level of 71.5 +/- 6.3% after freezing could be achieved at the end of a storage period of 28 days, whereas only 25.0 +/- 1.4% showed the ability to tolerate freeze-drying treatment, if both low-temperature treatments were preceded by a heat exposure and addition of trehalose to yeast cells. Increased survival ability was also obtained when the pre-exposure treatment of yeast cells was performed at 10 degrees C for 3 h and trehalose was added: these treatments enhanced cell survival following freezing from 20.5 +/- 7. 7% to 60.0 +/- 3.5%. Although both mild cold and heat shock treatments could enhance cell tolerance to low temperature, only the heat treatment was able to increase the accumulation of intracellular trehalose whereas, during cold shock exposure, the intracellular amount of trehalose remained unaltered. Intracellular trehalose levels seemed not to be the only factor contributing to cell tolerance against freezing and freeze-drying treatments; however, the protection that this sugar confers to cells can be exerted only if it is to be found on both sides of the plasma membrane. 相似文献

The levels of glycogen, free trehalose, and lipid-bound trehalose were compared in Mycobacterium smegmatis grown under various conditions of nitrogen limitation. In a mineral salts medium supplemented with yeast extract and containing fructose as the carbon source, the accumulation of glycogen increased dramatically as the NH(4)Cl content of the medium was lowered. However, levels of free trehalose remained relatively constant. Cells were grown in low nitrogen medium and were then shifted to medium containing high nitrogen. Under these conditions, there was a rapid accumulation of glycogen in low nitrogen, and this glycogen was rapidly depleted when cells were placed in high nitrogen medium. Again the concentration of free trehalose remained fairly constant. However, when cells were grown in low nitrogen medium with [(14)C]fructose and then transferred to high nitrogen medium with unlabeled fructose, the specific radioactivity (counts per minute per micromole) of the free trehalose fell immediately, indicating that it was being synthesized and turned over continually. On the other hand, the specific radioactivity of the glycogen and bound trehalose declined much more slowly, suggesting that these two compounds were not turning over as rapidly or were being synthesized at a much slower rate. Experiments on the incorporation of [(14)C]fructose into glycogen and trehalose indicated that cells in high nitrogen medium synthesized much less glycogen than those in low nitrogen. However, synthesis of both free trehalose and bound trehalose was the same in both cases. The specific enzymatic activities of the glycogen synthetase and the trehalose phosphate synthetase varied somewhat from one growth condition to another, but there was no correlation between enzymatic activity and the amount of glycogen or trehalose, suggesting that changes in glycogen levels were not due to increased synthetic capacity. The glycogen synthetase was purified about 35-fold and its properties were examined. This enzyme was specific for adenosine diphosphate glucose as the glucosyl donor. 相似文献

The hyperthermophilic marine archaeon Thermococcus litoralis exhibits high-affinity transport activity for maltose and trehalose at 85 degrees C. The K(m) for maltose transport was 22 nM, and that for trehalose was 17 nM. In cells that had been grown on peptone plus yeast extract, the Vmax for maltose uptake ranged from 3.2 to 7.5 nmol/min/mg of protein in different cell cultures. Cells grown in peptone without yeast extract did not show significant maltose or trehalose uptake. We found that the compound in yeast extract responsible for the induction of the maltose and trehalose transport system was trehalose. [14C]maltose uptake at 100 nM was not significantly inhibited by glucose, sucrose, or maltotriose at a 100 microM concentration but was completely inhibited by trehalose and maltose. The inhibitor constant, Ki, of trehalose for inhibiting maltose uptake was 21 nM. In contrast, the ability of maltose to inhibit the uptake of trehalose was not equally strong. With 20 nM [14C]trehalose as the substrate, a 10-fold excess of maltose was necessary to inhibit uptake to 50%. However, full inhibition was observed at 2 microM maltose. The detergent-solubilized membranes of trehalose-induced cells contained a high-affinity binding protein for maltose and trehalose, with an M(r) of 48,000, that exhibited the same substrate specificity as the transport system found in whole cells. We conclude that maltose and trehalose are transported by the same high-affinity membrane-associated system. This represents the first report on sugar transport in any hyperthermophilic archaeon. 相似文献

In this study, this protein was overexpressed in yeast cells grown on trehalose-containing medium to assess its impact on yeast vacuolar activity. ATH was confirmed to be located in both cell surface and vacuoles and the overexpression of ATH was observed to decrease vacuolar activity. Therefore, an assumption was suggested to explain this phenomenon as follows: when grown on containing trehalose medium, the ATH localization at cellular periplasm, but not the vacuole, is prioritized to utilize the extracellular trehalose for cell growth. The multivesicular body pathway (MVB pathway) via which ATH is transported into vacuoles is believed to be down-regulated to favor the accumulation of ATH at cell surface area. By extension, other vacuolar proteins travelling through MVB pathway to reach yeast vacuoles likely also suffer the down regulation. It can be concluded that acid trehalase may contribute down regulation of other vacuolar proteins through MVB pathway. This study suggests that it is a potential of acid trehalase (ATH) on impaired activity of yeast vacuolar. 相似文献

Trehalose accumulation from starch by Saccharomycopsis fibuligera sdu was examined in 300-ml shaken flask culture and Biostat B(2) 2-1 fermentation. In the 300-ml flask, 16.5% (w/w) trehalose accumulated in the yeast cells (cell dry weight) was observed with 100-ml medium shaken at 200 rpm for 50 h at 30 degrees C. We found that 1.0% soluble starch in the medium was most suitable for trehalose accumulation by this yeast strain. In the Biostat B(2) 2-1 fermentor, 18.0% (w/w) trehalose accumulated in the yeast cells (cell dry weight) was observed within 48 h of fermentation when agitation speed was 200 rpm. The trehalose obtained from the yeast cells was identical to standard trehalose from Sigma based on the analysis results of High-Performance Exchange Anionic Chromatography (HPEAC). 相似文献

Freezing tolerance is an important characteristic for baker’s yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, as it is used to make frozen dough. The ability of yeast cells to survive freezing is thought to depend on various factors. The purpose of this work was to study the viability of yeast cells during the freezing process. We examined factors potentially affecting their survival, including the growth phase, ice-seeding temperature, intracellular trehalose content, freezing period, and duration of supercooling. The results showed that the ice-seeding temperature significantly affected cell viability. In the stationary phase, trehalose accumulation did not affect the viability of yeast cells after brief freezing, although it did significantly affect the viability after prolonged freezing. In the log phase, the ice-seeding temperature was more important for cell survival than the presence of trehalose during prolonged freezing. The importance of increasing the extracellular ice-seeding temperature was verified by comparing frozen yeast survival rates in a freezing test with ice-seeding temperatures of −5 °C and −15 °C. We also found that the cell survival rates began to increase at 3 h of supercooling. The yeast cells may adapt to subzero temperatures and/or acquire tolerance to freezing stress during the supercooling. 相似文献

Inhibition of yeast glutathione reductase by trehalose: possible implications in yeast survival and recovery from stress 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Accumulation of trehalose has been implicated in the tolerance of yeast cells to several forms of stress, including heat-shock and high ethanol levels. However, yeast lacking trehalase, the enzyme that degrades trehalose, exhibit poor survival after exposure to stress conditions. This suggests that optimal cell viability also depends on the capacity to rapidly degrade the high levels of trehalose that build up under stress. Here, we initially examined the effects of trehalose on the activity of an important antioxidant enzyme, glutathione reductase (GR), from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. At 25 degrees C, GR was inhibited by trehalose in a dose-dependent manner, with 70% inhibition at 1.5M trehalose. The inhibition was practically abolished at 40 degrees C, a temperature that induces a physiological response of trehalose accumulation in yeast. The inhibition of GR by trehalose was additive to the inhibition caused by ethanol, indicating that enzyme function is drastically affected upon ethanol-induced stress. Moreover, two other yeast enzymes, cytosolic pyrophosphatase and glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase, showed temperature dependences on inhibition by trehalose that were similar to the temperature dependence of GR inhibition. These results are discussed in terms of the apparent paradox represented by the induction of enzymes involved in both synthesis and degradation of trehalose under stress, and suggest that the persistence of high levels of trehalose after recovery from stress could lead to the inactivation of important yeast enzymes. 相似文献

The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae was shown to be extremely sensitive to dehydration–rehydration treatments when stationary phase cells were subjected to conditions of severe oxygen limitation, unlike the same cells grown in aerobic conditions. The viability of dehydrated anaerobically grown yeast cells never exceeded 2 %. It was not possible to increase this viability using gradual rehydration of dry cells in water vapour, which usually strongly reduces damage to intracellular membranes. Specific pre-dehydration treatments significantly increased the resistance of anaerobic yeast to drying. Thus, incubation of cells with trehalose (100 mM), increased the viability of dehydrated cells after slow rehydration in water vapour to 30 %. Similarly, pre-incubation of cells in 1 M xylitol or glycerol enabled up to 50–60 % of cells to successfully enter a viable state of anhydrobiosis after subsequent rehydration. We presume that trehalose and sugar alcohols function mainly according to a water replacement hypothesis, as well as initiating various protective intracellular reactions. 相似文献

Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO–K1 cells) in which the trehalose transporter (TRET1) is expressed can have greater cryoprotection than ordinary CHO–K1 cells. This study examines the uptake characteristics of trehalose into cells via TRET1 and determines the influence of intracellular trehalose on the freeze–thaw viabilities. In our experiments, the intracellular trehalose concentration is controlled by the extracellular trehalose concentration and the immersion time in a freezing solution. In this freezing solution, both kinds of CHO–K1 cells are independently dispersed with various amount of trehalose, and then put into the CO2 incubator for 0–6 h. After a set immersion time, the cell-suspended sample is cooled to 193 K, stored for 1 week, then quickly thawed at 310 K and its viability measured. The uptake amount of intracellular trehalose is measured before freezing. We find an upper limit for the uptake amount of trehalose when the extracellular trehalose concentration is about 400 mM, at which the freeze–thaw viability is the highest. When the extracellular trehalose concentration exceeds 400 mM, shorter immersion times are needed to obtain the maximum freeze–thaw viability. Also, longer immersion weakens the cells. Our analyses indicate that when the extracellular trehalose-concentration is less than 400 mM, the trehalose uptake occurs more slowly with less dehydration, resulting in less stress on the cell. When the extracellular trehalose concentration exceeds the saturation level, the cell is stressed by the excess dehydration due to the remaining osmotic pressure, with apoptosis occurring before freezing. 相似文献

We examined the freeze tolerance of bakers' yeast loaded with exogenous trehalose. Freeze-tolerant and freeze-sensitive compressed bakers' yeast samples were soaked at several temperatures in 0.5 M and 1 M trehalose and analyzed. The intracellular trehalose contents in both types of bakers' yeast increased with increasing soaking period. The initial trehalose-accumulation rate increased with increasing exogenous trehalose concentration and soaking temperature. The maximum trehalose content was almost identical (200-250 mg/g of dry cells) irrespective of the soaking temperature and the type of bakers' yeast, but depended on the exogenous trehalose concentration. The leavening ability of both types of bakers' yeast loaded with trehalose was almost identical to that of the respective original cells, irrespective of the soaking conditions. The freeze-tolerant ratio (FTR) of both types of bakers' yeast increased with increasing intracellular trehalose content. However, FTR decreased during over-soaking after the maximum amount of trehalose had accumulated. FTR of the freeze-sensitive bakers' yeast was more efficiently improved than that of the freeze-tolerant type. 相似文献

The work was concerned with studying the balance of trehalose distribution between the rehydration medium and Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells grown in a chemically defined medium and dehydrated using the convective technique. A direct linear correlation between the viability of populations and the overall residual trehalose content in the cells and in the medium after the rehydration of dry yeast cells was shown to be most important. An inverse correlation was established between the viability of yeast cells and the amount of trehalose mobilised by the cells in the process of rehydration. 相似文献

Beneficial effect of intracellular trehalose on the membrane integrity of dried mammalian cells 总被引:29,自引:0,他引:29
Recently, there has been much interest in using trehalose and other small carbohydrates to preserve mammalian cells in the dried state as an alternative to cryopreservation. Here, we report on the successful preservation of plasma membrane integrity after drying, as a first step toward full preservation of mammalian cells. Trehalose was introduced into cells using a genetically engineered version of alpha-hemolysin, a pore-forming protein; the cells were then dried and stored for weeks at different temperatures with approximately 90% recovery of the intact plasma membrane. We show that protection of the plasma membrane by internal trehalose is dose dependent and estimate the amount of internal trehalose required for adequate protection to be approximately 10(10) molecules/cell. In addition, a minimal amount of water (approximately 15 wt%) appears to be necessary. These results show that a key component of mammalian cells can be preserved in a dried state for weeks under mild conditions (-20 degrees C and 5% relative humidity) and thereby suggest new approaches to preserving mammalian cells. 相似文献
