In the yeast Dipodascus magnusii, which is auxotrophic for thiamine and biotin, during cultivation on glucose with excessive thiamine concentration, pyruvate metabolism was shown to result in the synthesis of fermentation products, namely, ethanol and, to a lesser extent, lactate. Substantial synthesis of ethyl acetate was also observed under these conditions. Introduction of nicotinic acid (NA) into the medium resulted in time separation of ethanol and lactate production. It was shown that cultivation of the yeast under biotin deficiency resulted in nearly complete suppression of aerobic production of ethanol and cessation of ethyl acetate synthesis, whereas lactate synthesis was activated as early as in the first hours of cultivation. Upon introduction of NA under these conditions, lactate concentration sharply increased. These results show that the combination of thiamine and biotin with other vitamins can stimulate utilization of the pyruvate pool in yeasts towards formation of considerable amounts of lactate, which is typical only of cells of higher eukaryotes and bacteria. 相似文献

The effect of succinate on the growth and respiration of the yeast Dipodascus magnusii VKM Y-1072, which is auxotrophic for thiamine and biotin, was studied. The addition of succinate to a culture grown on glucose was found to activate the respiration of cells on various substrates by enhancing the processes related to transamination reactions. In this case, aerobic fermentation (ethanol production) decreased, whereas pyruvate production increased. When succinate was added to the medium as the sole carbon source, it supported yeast growth in the absence of one of the two vitamins, thiamine or biotin, but not both. The yeast metabolism was completely respiratory, without any signs of aerobic fermentation. A drastic rise in pyruvate production in the yeast grown on glucose in the presence of succinate and the absence of biotin are also indicative of metabolic changes. 相似文献

The effects of glucose, vitamins, and DO concentrations on efficient pyruvic acid fermentation were investigated using Torulopsis glabrata IFO 0005, and a novel biphasic culture method was developed on the basis of the metabolic flux analysis. T. glabrata requires the four vitamins nicotinic acid (NA), thiamine hydrochloride (B(1)), pyridoxine hydrochloride, and biotin for cell growth. The deficiency of these vitamins plays an essential role in pyruvate fermentation. In the present study, we considered the effects of the first two vitamins on the pyruvate fermentation. On the basis of several batch and fed-batch experiments, it was found that, as a result of glucose inhibition of cell growth, the initial glucose concentration should be around 30-40 g/L, and the glucose concentration during fermentation should be controlled at high level around 30 g/L. On the basis of an analysis of carbon flux distribution, a biphasic fermentation method was developed where the cultivation started with a high DO (at 40-50% of air saturation) for efficient cell growth and then was reduced to 5-10% for efficient pyruvate production. Since a fair amount of ethanol was formed when the DO concentration was decreased, the addition of NA turned out to be effective in reducing the ethanol formation. This may be due to a relaxing of the requirement for NADH oxidation by the alcohol dehydrogenase pathway. Since B(1) affects both the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex and pyruvate decarboxylase, its initial concentration must be carefully determined by considering both the cell growth and pyruvate production phases. 相似文献

The production of ethanol, acetate ion and ethyl acetate from glucose by the yeast Candida pseudotropicalis NCYC 143 was investigated under aerobic and anaerobic growth conditions. Acetate and ethyl acetate only accumulated under aerobic conditions, whereas production of the alcohol was favoured by anaerobic conditions. Ester production during aerobic growth was enhanced substantially by growth in iron-deficient media. Possible conditions for optimising ester production from ethanol in dilute product streams were characterised. 相似文献

Due to a growing market for the biodegradable and renewable polymer polylactic acid, the world demand for lactic acid is rapidly increasing. The tolerance of yeasts to low pH can benefit the process economy of lactic acid production by minimizing the need for neutralizing agents. Saccharomyces cerevisiae (CEN.PK background) was engineered to a homofermentative lactate-producing yeast via deletion of the three genes encoding pyruvate decarboxylase and the introduction of a heterologous lactate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.27). Like all pyruvate decarboxylase-negative S. cerevisiae strains, the engineered strain required small amounts of acetate for the synthesis of cytosolic acetyl-coenzyme A. Exposure of aerobic glucose-limited chemostat cultures to excess glucose resulted in the immediate appearance of lactate as the major fermentation product. Ethanol formation was absent. However, the engineered strain could not grow anaerobically, and lactate production was strongly stimulated by oxygen. In addition, under all conditions examined, lactate production by the engineered strain was slower than alcoholic fermentation by the wild type. Despite the equivalence of alcoholic fermentation and lactate fermentation with respect to redox balance and ATP generation, studies on oxygen-limited chemostat cultures showed that lactate production does not contribute to the ATP economy of the engineered yeast. This absence of net ATP production is probably due to a metabolic energy requirement (directly or indirectly in the form of ATP) for lactate export. 相似文献

Minute amounts of oxygen were supplied to a continuous cultivation of Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris MG1363 grown on a defined glucose-limited medium at a dilution rate of 0.1 h−1. More than 80% of the carbon supplied with glucose ended up in fermentation products other than lactate. Addition of even minute amounts of oxygen increased the yield of biomass on glucose by more than 10% compared to that obtained under anaerobic conditions and had a dramatic impact on catabolic enzyme activities and hence on the distribution of carbon at the pyruvate branch point. Increasing aeration caused carbon dioxide and acetate to replace formate and ethanol as catabolic end products while hardly affecting the production of either acetoin or lactate. The negative impact of oxygen on the synthesis of pyruvate formate lyase was confirmed. Moreover, oxygen was shown to down regulate the protein level of alcohol dehydrogenase while increasing the enzyme activity levels of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, α-acetolactate synthase, and the NADH oxidases. Lactate dehydrogenase and glyceraldehyde dehydrogenase enzyme activity levels were unaffected by aeration. 相似文献

The effect of yeast strain, the agave age and the cultivation field location of agave were evaluated using kinetic parameters
and volatile compound production in the tequila fermentation process. Fermentations were carried out with Agave juice obtained
from two cultivation fields (CF1 and CF2), as well as two ages (4 and 8 years) and two Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast strains (GU3 and AR5) isolated from tequila fermentation must. Sugar consumption and ethanol production varied as a
function of cultivation field and agave age. The production of ethyl acetate, 1-propanol, isobutanol and amyl alcohols were
influenced in varying degrees by yeast strain, agave age and cultivation field. Methanol production was only affected by the
agave age and 2-phenylethanol was influenced only by yeast strain. This work showed that the use of younger Agave tequilana for tequila fermentation resulted in differences in sugar consumption, ethanol and volatile compounds production at the end
of fermentation, which could affect the sensory quality of the final product. 相似文献

The synthesis of isocitrate lyase in Candida tropicalis, the growth of which was stimulated by exogenously added biotin, was released from repression by glucose under biotin-deficient conditions. Biotin deficiency reduced remarkably the levels of biotin-enzymes, pyruvate carboxylase and acetyl-Co A carboxylase, in the glucose-utilizing cells of this yeast. A marked increase in intracellular level of pyruvate was observed in the biotin-deficient cells. Acetyl-CoA-donating compounds, such as pyruvate, acetate and alkanes, stimulated the formation of isocitrate lyase in the yeast regardless of the presence or absence of biotin. On the other hand, malate and succinate did not affect the enzyme synthesis. The isocitrate lyase synthesis under biotin-sufficient conditions was repressed by not only glucose but also glucosamine and 2-deoxyglucose. This repression by glucose was not eliminated by cAMP. The stimulated synthesis of isocitrate lyase under biotin-deficient conditions was also observed in C. albicans and C. guilliermondii growing on glucose. 相似文献

Abstract The enzymes implicated in ethyl acetate synthesis and the catabolism of ethanol by Kluyveromyces fragilis were investigated under varying growth conditions. The culture was grown continuously to D = 0.25 h−1 on diluted whey permeate. The results showed that ethyl acetate synthesis by Kluyveromyces fragilis is catalysed by both an esterase and an alcohol acetyltransferase. The esterase is a constitutive enzyme, while alcohol acetyltransferase is inducible. The catabolism of ethanol by Kluyveromyces fragilis resulted in production of ethyl acetate, acetate and acetaldehyde. The glyoxylic shunt is totally inactive in these conditions. The production of acetaldehyde is only governed by an alcohol dehydrogenase. 相似文献

Relationship between iron-limited growth and energy limitation during phased cultivation of Candida utilis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The yeast Candida utilis was continuously synchronized by the phasing technique (6 h doubling time) with either iron or nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Iron limitations resulted in decreased molar growth yields with respect to the carbon substrates and ammonia and in increased specific rates of oxygen uptake. Relatively low energy-charge values were maintained by the iron-limited culture. All these taken together seemed to indicate that the growth of the yeast under iron limitation was also limited by metabolically available energy. Consideralbe amounts of ethyl acetate were produced by the yeast under phased cultivation when the growth was limited by iron but not by nitrogen. In vitro studies using cell-free extracts showed that the substrates for ethyl acetate synthesis were acetyl coenzyme A (acetyl CoA) and ethanol. Under iron-limited growth acetyl CoA seemed to be diverted to ethyl acetate formation rather than being oxidized through the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle. The possibility of energy limitation under iron-limited growth being brought about by the reduced capacity of the yeast to oxidize acetyl CoA through the TCA cycle is considered. 相似文献

We investigated the regulation of the central aerobic and hypoxic metabolism of the biocontrol and non-Saccharomyces wine yeast Pichia anomala. In aerobic batch culture, P. anomala grows in the respiratory mode with a high biomass yield (0.59 g [dry weight] of cells g of glucose−1) and marginal ethanol, glycerol, acetate, and ethyl acetate production. Oxygen limitation, but not glucose pulse, induced fermentation with substantial ethanol production and 10-fold-increased ethyl acetate production. Despite low or absent ethanol formation, the activities of pyruvate decarboxylase and alcohol dehydrogenase were high during aerobic growth on glucose or succinate. No activation of these enzyme activities was observed after a glucose pulse. However, after the shift to oxygen limitation, both enzymes were activated threefold. Metabolic flux analysis revealed that the tricarboxylic acid pathway operates as a cycle during aerobic batch culture and as a two-branched pathway under oxygen limitation. Glucose catabolism through the pentose phosphate pathway was lower during oxygen limitation than under aerobic growth. Overall, our results demonstrate that P. anomala exhibits a Pasteur effect and not a Crabtree effect, i.e., oxygen availability, but not glucose concentration, is the main stimulus for the regulation of the central carbon metabolism. 相似文献

The pathways of carbohydrate metabolism in Spirochaeta stenostrepta, a free-living, strictly anaerobic spirochete, were studied. The organism fermented glucose to ethyl alcohol, acetate, lactate, CO(2), and H(2). Assays of enzymatic activities in cell extracts, and determinations of radioactivity distribution in products formed from (14)C-labeled glucose indicated that S. stenostrepta degraded glucose via the Embden-Meyerhof pathway. The spirochete utilized a clostridial-type clastic reaction to metabolize pyruvate to acetyl-coenzyme A, CO(2), and H(2), without production of formate. Acetyl-coenzyme A was converted to ethyl alcohol by nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide-dependent acetaldehyde and alcohol dehydrogenase activities. Phosphotransacetylase and acetate kinase catalyzed the formation of acetate from acetyl-coenzyme A. Hydrogenase and lactate dehydrogenase activities were detected in cell extracts. A rubredoxin was isolated from cell extracts of S. stenostrepta. Preparations of this rubredoxin stimulated acetyl phosphate formation from pyruvate by diethylaminoethyl cellulose-treated extracts of S. stenostrepta, an indication that rubredoxin may participate in pyruvate cleavage by this spirochete. Nutritional studies showed that S. stenostrepta fermented a variety of carbohydrates, but did not ferment amino acids or other organic acids. An unidentified growth factor present in yeast extract was required by the organism. Exogenous supplements of biotin, riboflavin, and vitamin B(12) were either stimulatory or required for growth. 相似文献

The nuoA-N gene cluster encodes a transmembrane NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase (NDH-I) responsible for coupling redox chemistry to proton-motive force generation. Interactions between nuo and the acetate-producing pathway encoded by ackA-pta were investigated by examining the metabolic patterns of several mutant strains under anaerobic growth conditions. In an ackA-pta strain, the flux to acetate was decreased dramatically, whereas flux to lactate was increased significantly when compared with its parent strain; the fluxes to pyruvate and ethanol also increased slightly. In addition, pyruvate was excreted. A strain carrying the nuo mutation showed metabolic flux distribution similar to the wild type. The ackA-pta-nuo strain showed a different metabolic pattern. It not only exhibited reduced acetate accumulation but also significantly lower ethanol and formate synthesis. Metabolic flux distribution analysis suggests that the excessive carbon flux was redirected at the pyruvate node through the lactate dehydrogenase pathway for lactate formation rather than the pyruvate formate-lyase (PFL) pathway for acetyl-CoA and formate production. The diminished capacity through the formate and ethanol (ADH) pathways was not the result of genetic disruption of functional PFL or ADH production. The introduction of a Bacillus subtilis acetolactate synthase gene returned formate, ethanol, and lactate levels to those of the wild type (ackA(+)pta(+)nuo(+)) strain. Furthermore, transfer of a lactate dehydrogenase mutation yielded a strain producing ethanol as the sole fermentation product. As confirmation of the nuo effect, cultures of the ackA-pta strain, supplemented with an NDH-I inhibitor, produced intermediary levels of flux to ethanol and formate. Mutations in both ackA-pta and nuo are required to significantly reduce the flux through the PFL pathway. 相似文献

Ceratocystis fimbriata was grown in a standard liquid medium to determine the production of aroma compounds as affected by thiamine addition to the inoculum, thiamine or leucine addition to the medium, and the effect of water availability. Ethanol constituted more than half of the total volatiles production in the headspace, followed by ethyl acetate (22.6%), ethyl butyrate (10.8%), isobutanol (7.6%), amyl alcohol (1.6%), isoamyl acetate (1.5%), acetaldehyde (1.2%), ethyl propionate (0.9%), isobutyl acetate (0.4%), diacetyl (0.6%) and isoamyl alcohol (0.3%). Although significant two-way interactions were observed (P < 0.05), production of volatile compounds tended to be higher in inocula prepared with thiamine (T+) than in inocula without thiamine (T–), and in the standard medium with thiamine (SMT) as compared to the standard medium alone (SM) and the SM with leucine (SML). Also, the reduction of water activity (a
w) resulted in lower quantities of volatiles being produced. 相似文献

In this study, pyruvate production of Fusarium equiseti was significantly increased when the yeast extract concentration was raised from 5 to 25 g/L while it was increased to only up to 10 g/L yeast extract in F. acuminatum. Upon supplementation with urea as an alternative nitrogen source, production of pyruvate for both of the Fusarium species were decreased with respect to increase in urea concentration in medium. On the other hand, ethanol production and alcohol dehydrogenase activity of F. equiseti were decreased approximately 1.9- and 1.6-fold with an increase in yeast concentration from 5 to 25 whereas the levels of F. acuminatum were increased 2.3- and 1.8-fold, respectively. In addition, ethanol productions and ADH activities in F. equiseti and F. acuminatum significantly increased on the 12th day up to 15 and 25 g/L urea concentrations, respectively. However, they were significantly decreased under these conditions at higher nitrogen sources. In addition, ethanol production and alcohol dehydrogenase activity in urea supplemented medium were higher than yeast extract supplemented. The results may suggest that the pyruvate, ethanol production and ADH enzyme activity variations and balance between aerobic and anaerobic respiration in F. equiseti and F. acuminatum were effected from yeast extract and urea concentrations in the nutrient medium. 相似文献

The ability of Kluyveromyces marxianus to convert lactose into ethyl acetate offers a chance for an economic reuse of whey. Former experiments with K. marxianus DSM 5422 proved limitation of growth by iron (Fe) or copper as a precondition for significant ester synthesis. Several aerobic batch and chemostat cultivations were done with whey-borne media of a variable Fe content for exploring the effect of Fe on growth, the Fe content of biomass, and metabolite synthesis. At low Fe doses, Fe was the growth-limiting factor, the available Fe was completely absorbed by the yeasts, and the biomass formation linearly depended on the Fe dose governed by a minimum Fe content in the yeasts, x Fe,min. At batch conditions, x Fe,min was 8.8???g/g, while during chemostat cultivation at D?=?0.15?h?1, it was 23???g/g. At high Fe doses, sugar was the growth-limiting factor, Fe was more or less absorbed, and the formed biomass became constant. Significant amounts of ethyl acetate were only formed at Fe limitation while high Fe doses suppressed ester formation. Analysis of formed metabolites such as glycerol, pyruvate, acetate, ethanol, ethyl acetate, isocitrate, 2-oxoglutarate, succinate, and malate during chemostat cultivation allowed some interpretation of the Fe-dependent mechanism of ester synthesis; formation of ethyl acetate from acetyl-SCoA and ethanol is obviously initiated by a diminished metabolic flux of acetyl-SCoA into the citrate cycle and by a limited oxidation of NADH in the respiratory chain since Fe is required for the function of aconitase, succinate dehydrogenase, and the electron-transferring proteins. 相似文献
