Three different translocations involving chromosome IX have been detected in natural Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains using pulsed-field gel electrophoresis with intact chromosomal DNA and their hybridization with the SUC2 probe. Hybrids of these strains with genetic lines having normal molecular karyotype were shown to have back dislocation
of at least marker SUC2 due to crossingover. The significance of the detected translocations is discussed. 相似文献

The selection and genetic improvement of wine yeast is an ongoing process, since yeast strains should match new technologies in winemaking to satisfy evolving consumer preferences. A large genetic background is the necessary starting point for any genetic improvement programme. For this reason, we collected and characterized a large number of strains belonging to Saccharomyces uvarum. In particular, 70 strains were isolated from cold-stored must samples: they were identified and compared to S. uvarum strains originating from different collections, regarding fermentation profile, spore viability and stress response. The results demonstrate a large biodiversity among the new isolates, with particular emphasis to fermentation performances, genotypes and high spore viability, making the isolates suitable for further genetic improvement programmes. Furthermore, few of them are competitive with Saccharomyces cerevisiae and per se, suitable for wine fermentation, due to their resistance to stress, short lag phase and fermentation by-products. 相似文献

Background Recent years have seen a huge growth in the market of industrial yeasts with the need for strains affording better performance
or to be used in new applications. Stress tolerance of commercial Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeasts is, without doubt, a trait that needs improving. Such trait is, however, complex, and therefore only in-depth knowledge
of their biochemical, physiological and genetic principles can help us to define improvement strategies and to identify the
key factors for strain selection. 相似文献

Using molecular karyotyping and genetic hybridization analysis, two new polymeric β-fructosidase genes, SUC9 and SUC10, were identified in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which are located on chromosome XIV and on the chromosome XVI/XIII doublet, respectively. The genes are responsible for
fermentation of sucrose and raffinose. The SUC gene genotypes of strains VKM Y-1831 and DBVPG 1340 are SUC2 SUC9 and suc2
0
SUC10, respectively. suc2
0 is a silent sequence. The scientific and applied significance of SUC genes is discussed. 相似文献

Background Two heterologous pathways have been used to construct recombinant xylose-fermenting Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains: i) the xylose reductase (XR) and xylitol dehydrogenase (XDH) pathway and ii) the xylose isomerase (XI) pathway.
In the present study, the Pichia stipitis XR-XDH pathway and the Piromyces XI pathway were compared in an isogenic strain background, using a laboratory host strain with genetic modifications known
to improve xylose fermentation (overexpressed xylulokinase, overexpressed non-oxidative pentose phosphate pathway and deletion
of the aldose reductase gene GRE3). The two isogenic strains and the industrial xylose-fermenting strain TMB 3400 were studied regarding their xylose fermentation
capacity in defined mineral medium and in undetoxified lignocellulosic hydrolysate. 相似文献

Direct genetic testing for hybrid sterility unambiguously showed that the newly described yeast Saccharomyces arboricolus Wang et Bai is reproductively isolated from Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Saccharomyces bayanus, Saccharomyces cariocanus, Saccharomyces kudriavzevii, Saccharomyces mikatae and Saccharomyces paradoxus and, therefore, represents a new biological species of the genus Saccharomyces. Combined phylogenetic analysis of the rDNA repeat sequences (18S, 26S, ITS), nuclear ACT1 and mitochondrial ATP9 genes revealed that S. arboricolus, along with S. kudriavzevii and S. bayanus, is distantly related to the other four biological species. 相似文献

Autochthonous strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae from traditional starters used for the production of rice-based ethnic fermented beverage in North East India were examined
for their genetic polymorphism using mitochondrial DNA-RFLP and electrophoretic karyotyping. Mitochondrial DNA-RFLP analysis
of S. cerevisiae strains with similar technological origins from hamei starter of Manipur and marcha starter of Sikkim revealed widely separated clusters based on their geographical origin. Electrophoretic karyotyping showed
high polymorphism amongst the hamei strains within similar mitochondrial DNA-RFLP cluster and one unique karyotype of marcha strain was widely distributed in the Sikkim-Himalayan region. We conceptualized the possibility of separate domestication
events for hamei strains in Manipur (located in the Indo-Burma biodiversity hotspot) and marcha strains in Sikkim (located in Himalayan biodiversity hotspot), as a consequence of less homogeneity in the genomic structure
between these two groups, their clear separation being based on geographical origin, but not on technological origin and
low strain level diversity within each group. The molecular markers developed based on HinfI-mtDNA-RFLP profile and the chromosomal doublets in chromosome VIII position of Sikkim-Himalayan strains could be effectively
used as geographical markers for authenticating the above starter strains and differentiating them from other commercial strains. 相似文献

Xylose fermentation performance was studied of a previously developed Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain TMB 3057, carrying high xylose reductase (XR) and xylitol dehydrogenase (XDH) activity, overexpressed non-oxidative
pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) and deletion of the aldose reductase gene GRE3. The fermentation performance of TMB 3057 was significantly improved by increased ethanol production and reduced xylitol
formation compared with the reference strain TMB 3001. The effects of the individual genetic modifications on xylose fermentation
were investigated by comparing five isogenic strains with single or combined modifications. All strains with high activity
of both XR and XDH had increased ethanol yields and significantly decreased xylitol yields. The presence of glucose further
reduced xylitol formation in all studied strains. High activity of the non-oxidative PPP improved the xylose consumption rate.
The results indicate that ethanolic xylose fermentation by recombinant S. cerevisiae expressing XR and XDH is governed by the efficiency by which xylose is introduced in the central metabolism. 相似文献

Genetic diversity in experimental, domesticated and wild populations of the related yeasts, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Saccharomyces paradoxus, has been well described at the global scale. We investigated the population genomics of a local population on a small spatial scale to address two main questions. First, is there genomic variation in a S. paradoxus population at a spatial scale spanning centimetres (microsites) to tens of metres? Second, does the distribution of genomic variants persist over time? Our sample consisted of 42 S. paradoxus strains from 2014 and 43 strains from 2015 collected from the same 72 microsites around four host trees ( Quercus rubra and Quercus alba) within 1 km 2 in a mixed hardwood forest in southern Ontario. Six additional S. paradoxus strains recovered from adjacent maple and beech trees in 2015 are also included in the sample. Whole‐genome sequencing and genomic SNP analysis revealed five differentiated groups (clades) within the sampled area. The signal of persistence of genotypes in their microsites from 2014 to 2015 was highly significant. Isolates from the same tree tended to be more related than strains from different trees, with limited evidence of dispersal between trees. In growth assays, one genotype had a significantly longer lag phase than the other strains. Our results indicate that different clades coexist at fine spatial scale and that population structure persists over at least a one‐year interval in these wild yeasts, suggesting the efficacy of yearly sampling to follow longer term genetic dynamics in future studies. 相似文献

A functional strain Fhhh was constructed through protoplast fusion of three parental strains ( Phanerochaete chrysosporium, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and native bacterium YZ) to improve the degradation efficiency of purified terephthalic acid wastewater. Randomly amplified
polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis were applied to identify and confirm the fusant Fhhh
through phenotypic and genetic relationship. The result of SEM analysis demonstrated that the cell shape of fusant Fhhh differed
from all three parental strains. RAPD analysis of 40 arbitrary primers generated a total of 1,135 bands. The genetic similarity
indices between Fhhh and parental strains Phanerochaete chrysosporium (PC), Saccharomyces cerevisiae (SC) and native bacterium (YZ) were 34.01%, 33.16%, and 35.97%, respectively. The targeted-gene PCR results showed that Fhhh
inherited the DNA fragments of mnp and lip genes from parental strain PC and FLO1 gene fragment from parental strain SC. Our results suggested protoplast fusion technique may be considered as a promising
technique in environmental pollution control. 相似文献

Genetic analysis was performed on 45 commercial yeasts which are used in winemaking because of their superior fermentation
properties. Genome sizes were estimated by propidium iodide fluorescence and flow cytometry. Forty strains had genome sizes
consistent with their being diploid, while five had a range of aneuploid genome sizes that ranged from 1.2 to 1.8 times larger.
The diploid strains are all Saccharomyces cerevisiae, based on genetic analysis of microsatellite and minisatellite markers and on DNA sequence analysis of the internal transcribed
spacer (ITS) region of nuclear ribosomal DNA of four strains. Four of the five aneuploid strains appeared to be interspecific
hybrids between Saccharomyces kudriavzevii and Saccharomyces cerevisiae, with the fifth a hybrid between two S. cerevisiae strains. An identification fingerprint was constructed for the commercial yeast strains using 17 molecular markers. These
included six published trinucleotide microsatellites, seven new dinucleotide microsatellites, and four published minisatellite
markers. The markers provided unambiguous identification of the majority of strains; however, several had identical or similar
patterns, and likely represent the same strain or mutants derived from it. The combined use of all 17 polymorphic loci allowed
us to identify a set of eleven commercial wine yeast strains that appear to be genetically homozygous. These strains are presumed
to have undergone inbreeding to maintain their homozygosity, a process referred to previously as ‘genome renewal’. 相似文献

Evolutionary history and early association with anthropogenic environments have made Saccharomyces cerevisiae the quintessential wine yeast. This species typically dominates any spontaneous wine fermentation and, until recently, virtually all commercially available wine starters belonged to this species. The Crabtree effect, and the ability to grow under fully anaerobic conditions, contribute decisively to their dominance in this environment. But not all strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae are equally suitable as starter cultures. In this article, we review the physiological and genetic characteristics of S. cerevisiae wine strains, as well as the biotic and abiotic factors that have shaped them through evolution. Limited genetic diversity of this group of yeasts could be a constraint to solving the new challenges of oenology. However, research in this field has for many years been providing tools to increase this diversity, from genetic engineering and classical genetic tools to the inclusion of other yeast species in the catalogues of wine yeasts. On occasion, these less conventional species may contribute to the generation of interspecific hybrids with S. cerevisiae. Thus, our knowledge about wine strains of S. cerevisiae and other wine yeasts is constantly expanding. Over the last decades, wine yeast research has been a pillar for the modernisation of oenology, and we can be confident that yeast biotechnology will keep contributing to solving any challenges, such as climate change, that we may face in the future. 相似文献

The setting up of new molecular methods for Saccharomyces cerevisiae typing is valuable in enology. Actually, the ability to discriminate different strains in wine making can have a benefit
both for the control of the fermentation process and for the preservation of wine typicity. This study focused on the screening
of single-nucleotide polymorphisms in genes involved in wine production that could evolve rapidly considering the selective
pressure of the isolation environment. Preliminary screening of 30 genes in silico was performed , followed by the selection of 10 loci belonging to 8 genes. The sequence analysis showed a low polymorphism and a degree of heterozygosity. However, a new potential
molecular target was recognized in the TPS1 gene coding for the trehalose-6-phosphate synthase enzyme involved in the ethanol resistance mechanism. This gene showed
a 1.42% sequence diversity with seven different nucleotide substitutions. Moreover, classic techniques were applied to a collection
of 50 S. cerevisiae isolates, mostly with enologic origin. Our results confirmed that the wine making was not carried out only by the inoculated
commercial starter because indigenous strains of S. cerevisiae present during fermentation were detected. In addition, a high genetic relationship among some commercial cultures was found,
highlighting imprecision or fraudulent practices by starter manufacturers. 相似文献

Aims: We performed an analysis of maltotriose utilization by 52 Saccharomyces yeast strains able to ferment maltose efficiently and correlated the observed phenotypes with differences in the copy number of genes possibly involved in maltotriose utilization by yeast cells. Methods and Results: The analysis of maltose and maltotriose utilization by laboratory and industrial strains of the species Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Saccharomyces pastorianus (a natural S. cerevisiae/ Saccharomyces bayanus hybrid) was carried out using microscale liquid cultivation, as well as in aerobic batch cultures. All strains utilize maltose efficiently as a carbon source, but three different phenotypes were observed for maltotriose utilization: efficient growth, slow/delayed growth and no growth. Through microarray karyotyping and pulsed‐field gel electrophoresis blots, we analysed the copy number and localization of several maltose‐related genes in selected S. cerevisiae strains. While most strains lacked the MPH2 and MPH3 transporter genes, almost all strains analysed had the AGT1 gene and increased copy number of MALx1 permeases. Conclusions: Our results showed that S. pastorianus yeast strains utilized maltotriose more efficiently than S. cerevisiae strains and highlighted the importance of the AGT1 gene for efficient maltotriose utilization by S. cerevisiae yeasts. Significance and Impact of the Study: Our results revealed new maltotriose utilization phenotypes, contributing to a better understanding of the metabolism of this carbon source for improved fermentation by Saccharomyces yeasts. 相似文献

The brewer’s yeast genome encodes a ‘Flo’ flocculin family responsible for flocculation. Controlled floc formation or flocculation
at the end of fermentation is of great importance in the brewing industry since it is a cost-effective and environmental-friendly
technique to separate yeast cells from the final beer. FLO genes have the notable capacity to evolve and diverge many times faster than other genes. In actual practice, this genetic
variability may directly alter the flocculin structure, which in turn may affect the flocculation onset and/or strength in
an uncontrolled manner. Here, 16 ale and lager yeast strains from different breweries, one laboratory Saccharomyces cerevisiae and one reference Saccharomyces pastorianus strain, with divergent flocculation strengths, were selected and screened for characteristic FLO gene sequences. Most of the strains could be distinguished by a typical pattern of these FLO gene markers. The FLO1 and FLO10 markers were only present in five out of the 18 yeast strains, while the FLO9 marker was ubiquitous in all the tested strains. Surprisingly, three strongly flocculating ale yeast strains in this screening
also share a typical ‘lager’ yeast FLO gene marker. Further analysis revealed that a complete Lg-FLO1 allele was present in these ale yeasts. Taken together, this explicit genetic variation between flocculation genes hampers
attempts to understand and control the flocculation behavior in industrial brewer’s yeasts. 相似文献

Molecular and genetic analyses revealed that the distillers race XII, which is an ancestor of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Peterhof and Gatchina genetic lines, has three polymeric β-fructosidase genes: SUC2, SUC5, and SUC8. The latter gene located on the X chromosome was identitied in this work for the first time. The presence of the single SUC2 gene in yeasts used in the international project on sequencing of the S. cerevisiae genome is discussed. 相似文献

Invertase (β-D-fructofuranoside fructohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.26) finds major uses in confectionery and in the production of invert syrup. In the present study, we report on invertase production by wild cultures of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The yeast strains were isolated from dates available in a local market. Five hyperproducing yeast strains (>100- fold higher invertase activity) were kinetically analysed for invertase production. Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain GCA-II was found to be a better invertase-yielding strain than all the other isolates. The values of Qp and Yp/s for GCA-II were economical as compared to other Saccharomyces cultures. The effect of sucrose concentration, rate of invertase synthesis, initial pH of fermentation medium and different organic nitrogen sources on the production of invertase under submerged culture conditions was investigated. Optimum concentrations of sucrose, urea and pH were 3, 0.2 (w/v), and 6 respectively. The increase in the enzyme yield obtained after optimization of the cultural conditions was 47.7%. 相似文献

Aims: To isolate acid‐ and bile‐resistant Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains directly from food samples and to preliminarily select them on the basis of fundamental probiotic properties. Methods and Results: A rapid screening method allowed the isolation and selection of 20 acid‐ and bile‐resistant yeasts from foods, avoiding time‐consuming isolation steps. The strains were characterized for their specific survival in simulated gastric juice and in intestinal fluid after pre‐exposure at low pH. Ten isolates demonstrated a satisfactory survival percentage in intestinal fluid after pre‐exposure to gastric juice and appreciable lipolytic and proteolytic properties, as demonstrated by the API‐ZYM test. By using molecular methods five strains were identified as Saccharomyces cerevisiae, three as Candida spp., one as Candida pararugosa and one as Pichia spp. The Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains showed considerable probiotic properties, achieving a 80< % <90 survival through the simulated gastrointestinal tract, as well as interesting glucosidase activities. Conclusions: The research represents an efficient strategy to select and identify Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains with desirable acid and bile resistances. Significance and Impact of the Study: This paper reports the direct selection of potentially probiotic yeasts from foods and provides indications about the ability of Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains to survive conditions simulating the human gastrointestinal tract. 相似文献
