Increased astaxanthin production by a Phaffia rhodozyma mutant grown on date juice from Yucca fillifera

The wild strain and the astaxanthin-overproducing mutant strain 25–2 of Phaffia rhodozyma were analyzed in order to assess their ability to grow and synthesize astaxanthin in a minimal medium composed of g L⁻¹: KH₂PO₄ 2.0; MgSO₄ 0.5; CaCl₂ 0.1; urea 1.0 and supplemented with date juice of Yucca fillifera as a carbon source (yuca medium). The highest astaxanthin production (6170 μg L⁻¹) was obtained at 22.5 g L⁻¹ of reducing sugars. The addition of yeast extract to the yuca medium at concentrations of 0.5–3.0 g L⁻¹ inhibited astaxanthin synthesis. The yuca medium supported a higher production of astaxanthin, 2.5-fold more than that observed in the YM medium. Journal of Industrial Microbiology & Biotechnology (2000) 24, 187–190.

Genetics and electrophoretic karyotyping of wild-type and astaxanthin mutant strains of Phaffia rhodozyma

In this work we establish the chromosomal composition of a wild-type, one astaxanthin and two -carotene overproducer strains of the red yeast Phaffia rhodozyma. The method used has been pulsed field gel electrophoresis, which has determined 9 DNA chromosomal bands in the yeast genome. The two largest bands are triplets and two other bands, VI and VIII, seem to be doublets. The size of the chromosomal bands varies between 0.35 and 2.5 Mb, suggesting a genome size of 25 Mb. The technique used, complemented with hybridization assays using specific DNA probes, provides direct information about the genomic organization of P. rhodozyma. We have also cloned and located in chromosomal bands different DNA sequences that code for the translation elongation factor 1 alpha (ef-1), a 7.6 kb BamHI fragment of repetitive DNA (possibly rDNA) and a randomly chosen fragment (named locus R2). Additionally, we have detected a chromosomal length polymorphism between wild-type strains and mutant strains affecting carotenogenesis obtained in our laboratory.     

Ethanol increases carotenoid production in Phaffia rhodozyma

Addition of ethanol (0.2%) to cultures of the yeast Phaffia rhodozyma increased the specific rate of carotenoid production [(carotenoid)(cell mass)⁻¹(time)⁻¹]. The incremental increase in carotenoid synthesis with ethanol was highest in carotenoid-hyperproducing strains. Ethanol increased carotenoid production when it was added at various points during the lag and active growth phases. Ethanol increased alcohol dehydrogenase and hydroxy-methyl-glutaryl-CoA (HMG-CoA) reductase activities. Our results indicate that increased carotenoid production by ethanol is associated with induction of HMG-CoA reductase and possibly activation of oxidative metabolism.

Growth and carotenoid production by pH-stat cultures of Phaffia rhodozyma

To optimize biomass and carotenoid production by Phaffia rhodozyma in pH-stat cultures, two methods of feeding glucose were studied. In the first method, which is comparatively simple to operate, the glucose feeding set point (pH 5.02) was higher than the culture pH (5.00) and P. rhodozyma grew at a low specific growth rate (=0.055 h^–1). In the second method, the glucose feeding set point (pH 4.98) was lower than the culture pH (5.00) and the yeast grew at a specific growth rate of =0.095 h^–1. With the second method of glucose feeding, which is more complex and in order to prevent overfeeding of glucose, a time interval was added to the control strategy of the glucose pump and allowed to expire before the next dose of glucose was added. The length of the time interval affected biomass and carotenoid production. A critical time interval (T_c) was defined. In pH-stat cultures of P. rhodozyma, it was found that if the time interval was set longer than the critical time interval, the yeast did not grow.     

Phaffia rhodozyma is polyploid

The ploidy of the red yeast Phaffia rhodozyma was evaluated using flow cytometric analyses of propidium iodide- stained cells and mutagenic inactivation kinetics. Our findings suggest that Phaffia rhodozyma is not haploid. Auxotrophic strains were generated at a high frequency following treatment of mutagenized cells with a combination of benomyl and ethyl acetate. Studies of an auxotrophic mutant using flow cytometry and UV inactivation indicated possible chromosome loss to an aneuploid state. Received 21 June 1998/ Accepted in revised form 25 September 1998
