Summary The effects of heat and ethanol shock on fatty acid composition and intracellular trehalose concentration of lager and ale brewing yeasts were examined. Exposure of cells to heat shock at 37°C or 10% (v/v) ethanol for 60 min resulted in a significant increase in the ratio of the total unsaturated to saturated fatty acyl residues and the intracellular trehalose concentration of cells. A similar increase in the amount of unsaturated fatty acids was observed in cells after 24 h of fermentation of 16°P (degree Plato) or 25°P wort, at which time more than 2% (v/v) ethanol was present in the growth medium. These results suggest that unsaturated fatty acids and high concentrations of intracellular trehalose may protect the cells from the inhibitory effects of heat and ethanol shock. 相似文献

Using calcium alginate-entrapped yeast, 24% (w/w) wort was successfully fermented within 8 days. This is half the time needed for fermentation by free yeast. The highest ethanol concentration obtained was 10.5% (v/v). When the original wort gravity was increased, the specific rate of ethanol production remained constant 0.16 g gh–1 and the viability did not fall bellow 95% of living cells. Protection of cell against osmotic stress by gel matrix was also confirmed by trehalose measurement. The maximum intracellular trehalose content in calcium alginate-entrapped yeast was 3 times lower compared to free yeast at 30% (w/w) wort fermentation. 相似文献

Role of phosphatidylinositol (PI) in ethanol production and ethanol tolerance by a high ethanol producing yeast 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The effect of inositol addition on phospholipids, cell growth, ethanol production and ethanol tolerance in a high ethanol
producing Saccharomyces sp were studied. Addition of inositol greatly influenced major phospholipid synthesis. With inositol in the fermentation
medium, phosphatidylinositol (PI) content was increased, while phosphatidylcholine (PC) and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE)
were decreased. However, without inositol in the fermentation medium, PI content dropped down within 24 h, then increased,
but was lower than in the presence of inositol. When yeast cells had a higher content of PI, they produced ethanol much more
rapidly and tolerated higher concentrations of ethanol. During ethanol shock treatment at 18% (v/v) ethanol, yeast cells with
a higher concentration of PI lost their viability much more slowly than those with a lower concentration of PI, indicating
that the PI content in these yeast cells can play an important role in ethanol production and ethanol tolerance. Fatty acids
and ergosterol were not responsible for high ethanol tolerance and high ethanol production in this yeast strain.

This study has highlighted the role of magnesium ions in the amelioration of the detrimental effects of ethanol toxicity and temperature shock in a winemaking strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Specifically, results based on measurements of cellular viability and heat shock protein synthesis together with scanning electron microscopy have shown that, by increasing the bioavailability of magnesium ions, physiological protection is conferred on yeast cells. Elevating magnesium levels in the growth medium from 2 to 20 mM results in repression of certain heat shock proteins following a typical heat shock regime (30–42°C shift). Seed inocula cultures prepropagated in elevated levels of magnesium (i.e. ‘preconditioned’) also conferred thermotolerance on cells and repressed the biosynthesis of heat shock proteins. Similar results were observed in response to ethanol stress. Extra- and intracellular magnesium may both act in the physiological stress protection of yeast cells and this approach offers potential benefits in alcoholic fermentation processes. The working hypothesis based on our findings is that magnesium protects yeast cells by preventing increases in cell membrane permeability elicited by ethanol and temperature-induced stress. 相似文献

A 23 full factorial design was used to study the influence of different experimental variables, namely wort gravity, fermentation temperature and nutrient supplementation, on ethanol productivity from high gravity wort fermentation by Saccharomyces cerevisiae (lager strain), under pilot plant conditions. The highest ethanol productivity (0.69 g l–1 h–1) was obtained at 20°P [°P is the weight of extract (sugar) equivalent to the weight of sucrose in a 100 g solution at 20°C], 15°C, with the addition of 0.8% (w/v) yeast extract, 24 mg l–1 ergosterol and 0.24% (v/v) Tween 80. 相似文献

Summary The enhancement or induction of the protein synthesis was clearly observed in cells ofL. oenos labeled with35S for five proteins during heat shock at 42°C and acid shock at pH 3. Furthermore, no stress protein was induced after exposure ofL. oenos to ethanol shock 10% (v/v). Moreover, survival ofL. oenos in wine and ability to perform alolactic fermentation was improved after direct inoculation when cells were pretreated at 42°C. 相似文献

Nine indigenous cachaça Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains and one wine strain were compared for their trehalose metabolism characteristics under non-lethal (40°C) and lethal (52°C) heat shock, ethanol shock and combined heat and ethanol stresses. The yeast protection mechanism was studied through trehalose concentration, neutral trehalase activity and expression of heat shock proteins Hsp70 and Hsp104. All isolates were able to accumulate trehalose and activate neutral trehalase under stress conditions. No correlation was found between trehalose levels and neutral trehalase activity under heat or ethanol shock. However, when these stresses were combined, a positive relationship was found. After pre-treatment at 40°C for 60 min, and heat shock at 52°C for 8 min, eight strains maintained their trehalose levels and nine strains improved their resistance against lethal heat shock. Among the investigated stresses, heat treatment induced the highest level of trehalose and combined heat and ethanol stresses activated the neutral trehalase most effectively. Hsp70 and Hsp104 were expressed by all strains at 40°C and all of them survived this temperature although a decrease in cell viability was observed at 52°C. The stress imposed by more than 5% ethanol (v/v) represented the best condition to differentiate strains based on trehalose levels and neutral trehalase activity. The investigated S. cerevisiae strains exhibited different characteristics of trehalose metabolism, which could be an important tool to select strains for the cachaça fermentation process. 相似文献

Thermotolerant ethanol fermenting yeasts have been extensively used in industrial bioethanol production. However, little is known about yeast physiology under stress during bioethanol processing. This study investigated the physiological characteristics of the thermotolerant yeast Pichia kudriavzevii, strains NUNS-4, NUNS-5 and NUNS-6, under the multiple stresses of heat, ethanol and sodium chloride. Results showed that NUNS-4, NUNS-5 and NUNS-6 displayed higher growth rates under each stress condition than the reference strain, Saccharomyces cerevisiae TISTR5606. Maximum specific growth rates under stresses of heat (45°C), 15% v/v ethanol and 1·0 M sodium chloride were 0·23 ± 0·04 (NUNS-4), 0·11 ± 0·01 (NUNS-5) and 0·15 ± 0·01 h–1 (NUNS-5), respectively. Morphological features of all yeast studied changed distinctly with the production of granules and vacuoles when exposed to ethanol, and cells were elongated under increased sodium chloride concentration. This study suggests that the three P. kudriavzevii strains are potential candidates to use in industrial–scale fermentation due to a high specific growth rate under multiple stress conditions. Multiple stress-tolerant P. kudriavzevii NUNS strains have received much attention not only for improving large-scale fuel ethanol production, but also for utilizing these strains in other biotechnological industries. 相似文献

We have characterized the general properties of the heat shock response of the Gram-positive hardy bacteriumEnterococcus faecalis. The heat resistance (60°C or 62.5°C, 30 min) of log phase cells ofE. faecalis grown at 37°C was enhanced by exposing cells to a prior heat shock at 45°C or 50°C for 30 min. These conditioning temperatures also induced ethanol (22%, v/v) tolerance. The onset of thermotolerance was accompanied by the synthesis of a number of heat shock proteins. The most prominent bands had molecular weights in the range of 48 to 94kDa. By Western blot analysis two of them were found to be immunologically related to the well known DnaK (72 kDa) and GroEL (63 kDa) heat shock proteins ofEscherichia coli. Four other proteins showing little or no variations after exposure to heat are related to DnaJ, GrpE and Lon (La)E. coli proteins and to theBacillus subtilis 43 factor. Ethanol (2% or 4%, v/v) treatments elicited a similar response although there was a weaker induction of heat shock proteins than with heat shock. 相似文献

To save energy, space, and time, today's breweries make use of high-gravity brewing in which concentrated medium (wort) is fermented, resulting in a product with higher ethanol content. After fermentation, the product is diluted to obtain beer with the desired alcohol content. While economically desirable, the use of wort with an even higher sugar concentration is limited by the inability of brewer's yeast (Saccharomyces pastorianus) to efficiently ferment such concentrated medium. Here, we describe a successful strategy to obtain yeast variants with significantly improved fermentation capacity under high-gravity conditions. We isolated better-performing variants of the industrial lager strain CMBS33 by subjecting a pool of UV-induced variants to consecutive rounds of fermentation in very-high-gravity wort (>22° Plato). Two variants (GT336 and GT344) showing faster fermentation rates and/or more-complete attenuation as well as improved viability under high ethanol conditions were identified. The variants displayed the same advantages in a pilot-scale stirred fermenter under high-gravity conditions at 11°C. Microarray analysis identified several genes whose altered expression may be responsible for the superior performance of the variants. The role of some of these candidate genes was confirmed by genetic transformation. Our study shows that proper selection conditions allow the isolation of variants of commercial brewer's yeast with superior fermentation characteristics. Moreover, it is the first study to identify genes that affect fermentation performance under high-gravity conditions. The results are of interest to the beer and bioethanol industries, where the use of more-concentrated medium is economically advantageous. 相似文献

Thirteen yeasts isolated from the steep water of fermenting cassava tubers were screened for ethanol tolerance. Three strains which showed measurable growth in medium containing 10% (v/v) ethanol were also sugar-tolerant and grew well in medium containing 25% (w/v) glucose. One of the strains, YC3, was found to possess much higher invertase activity than the other two and could be of value in ethanol production from molasses. Further search for industrially useful yeasts in African fermented foods is suggested. 相似文献

Stress tolerance in a yeast sterol auxotroph: role of ergosterol, heat shock proteins and trehalose 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
The role of ergosterol in yeast stress tolerance, together with heat shock proteins (hsps) and trehalose, was examined in a sterol auxotrophic mutant of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Ergosterol levels paralleled viability data, with cells containing higher levels of the sterol exhibiting greater tolerances to heat and ethanol. Although the mutant synthesised hsps and accumulated trehalose upon heat shock to the same levels as the wild-type cells, these parameters did not relate to stress tolerance. These results indicate that the role of ergosterol in stress tolerance is independent of hsps or trehalose. 相似文献

Membrane lipid unsaturation index and membrane fluidity have been related to yeast ethanol stress tolerance in published studies, however findings have been inconsistent. In this study, viability reduction on exposure to 18% (v/v) ethanol was compared to membrane fluidity determined by laurdan generalized polarization. Furthermore, in the determination of viability reduction, we examined the effectiveness of two methods, namely total plate count and methylene violet staining. We found a strong negative correlation between ethanol tolerance and membrane fluidity, indicated by negative Pearson correlation coefficients of ??0.79, ??0.65 and ??0.69 for Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains A12, PDM and K7, respectively. We found that lower membrane fluidity leads to higher ethanol tolerance, as indicated by decreased viability reduction and higher laurdan generalized polarization in respiratory phase compared to respiro-fermentative phase cells. Total plate count better differentiated ethanol tolerance of yeast cells in different growth phases, while methylene violet staining was better to differentiate ethanol tolerance of the different yeast strains at a particular culture phase. Hence, both viability assessment methods have their own advantages and limitations, which should be considered when comparing stress tolerance in different situations. 相似文献

Summary The effect of different ethanol concentrations on the growth of Candida shehatae and Pichia stipitis with xylose as substrate was evaluated in a temperature gradient incubator. The upper limit of the temperature profiles of ethanol tolerance of both yeast strains were similar, although P. stipitis appeared to have a slightly higher ethanol tolerance in the higher temperature range. An increase in the ethanol concentration severely depressed the maximum growth temperature, and also increased the minimum growth temperature slightly. The ethanol tolerance limit of 46–48 g·l-1 occurred within a narrow temperature plateau of 11 to 22° C. The low ethanol tolerance of these pentose fermenting yeasts is detrimental for commercial ethanol production from hemicellulose hydrolysates. 相似文献

Summary A system for production of non-alcohol beer is described. A limited fermentation is carried out with immobilized cells ofSaccharomyces cerevisiae in a packed bed reactor. In the reactor, combined stress factors such as low temperature (2–4°C) and anaerobic conditions limit cell metabolism. Of the available sugars only a small amount of glucose is metabolized, resulting in low concentrations of ethanol (<0.08%). The absence of oxygen affects the redox balance of the yeast cell, and thus stimulates formation of esters and higher alcohols. Products are formed by reduction of wort aldehydes, as well as reduction of intracellular metabolites. Despite the stress conditions, biomass increases during prolonged production periods. In batch experiments,S. cerevisiae strain W34 grows at low temperatures and a mininum growth temperature of –2 °C was found, indicating that a further reduction of temperature during production will not inhibit growth. The characteristics of the system allow its use in very different applications. Potential applications of the immobilized system are discussed.This paper is dedicated to Professor Herman Jan Phaff in honor of his 50 years of active research which still continues. 相似文献

Stress tolerance of yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae during ethanolic fermentation is poorly understood due to the lack of genetic screens and conventional plate assays for studying this phenotype. We screened a genomic expression library of yeast to identify gene(s) that, upon overexpression, would prolong the survival of yeast cells during fermentation, with the view to understand the stress response better and to use the identified gene(s) in strain improvement. The yeast RPI1 (Ras-cAMP pathway inhibitor 1) gene was identified in such a screen performed at 38 °C; introducing an additional copy of RPI1 with its native promoter helped the cells to retain their viability by over 50-fold better than the wild type (WT) parent strain, after 36 h of fermentation at 38 °C. Disruption of RPI1 resulted in a drastic reduction in viability during fermentation, but not during normal growth, further confirming the role of this gene in fermentation stress tolerance. This gene seems to improve viability by fortifying the yeast cell wall, because RPI1 overexpression strain is highly resistant to cell lytic enzyme zymolyase, compared with the WT strain. As the RPI1 overexpression strain substantially retains cell viability at the end of fermentation, the cells can be reused in the subsequent round of fermentation, which is likely to facilitate economical production of ethanol. 相似文献

Improving ethanol tolerance of a self-flocculating yeast by optimization of medium composition 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

High ethanol tolerance is a desired property of industrial yeast strains for efficient ethanol fermentation. In this study,
the impact of medium composition on ethanol tolerance of the self-flocculating yeast SPSC01 was investigated using a chemically
defined medium. Single-factor experiments revealed that besides magnesium and calcium, zinc also exhibited significant protective
effect against ethanol toxicity; addition of 0.02 g/l zinc sulfate significantly increased cell viability in the ethanol shock
treatment. Metal ions of manganese, cobalt, and ferrous failed to promote ethanol tolerance, although addition of 0.02 g/l
cobalt increased ethanol production without apparent influence on ethanol tolerance. Furthermore, Uniform Design method was
employed to obtain the medium with high cell viability, and the key nutrient factors in the medium composition were revealed
to be (NH4)2SO4, K2HPO4, vitamin mixtures, and the metal ions of magnesium, calcium and zinc. The optimized combination of metal ions addition was
(g/l): MgSO4 0.4, CaCl2 0.2, ZnSO4 0.01. The highest cell viability (90.2%) of SPSC01 against ethanol shock treatment was observed in the optimized medium,
which demonstrated significant improvement of ethanol tolerance of the self-flocculating yeast. 相似文献

Acetic acid existing in a culture medium is one of the most limiting constraints in yeast growth and viability during ethanol
fermentation. To improve acetic acid tolerance in Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains, a drug resistance marker-aided genome shuffling approach with higher screen efficiency of shuffled mutants was developed
in this work. Through two rounds of genome shuffling of ultraviolet mutants derived from the original strain 308, we obtained
a shuffled strain YZ2, which shows significantly faster growth and higher cell viability under acetic acid stress. Ethanol
production of YZ2 (within 60 h) was 21.6% higher than that of 308 when 0.5% (v/v) acetic acid was added to fermentation medium.
Membrane integrity, higher in vivo activity of the H+-ATPase, and lower oxidative damage after acetic acid treatment are the possible reasons for the acetic acid-tolerance phenotype
of YZ2. These results indicated that this novel genome shuffling approach is powerful to rapidly improve the complex traits
of industrial yeast strains. 相似文献

Alcoholic fermentation of Jerusalem artichoke juice, a natural complex medium, allowed the production of 13% (v/v) ethanol utilizing an inulin-fermenting strain of Kluyveromyces fragilis, strongly sensitive to ethanol. However, the fermentation of a simple medium with a similar concentration of fermentable sugars (235 g/L) as saccharose stopped prematurely when only 7% (v/v) ethanol had been produced. Differences in the two fermentation profiles were attributed to the significantly lower ethanol tolerance of K. fragilis IGC 2671 in the simple medium with 2% saccharose as compared with diluted J.a. juice with a similar sugar concentration, in fact, (1) in diluted J. a. juice, growth was possible up to 8% (v/v) added ethanol compared with 6% (v/v) in simple medium and (2) ethanol-induced inhibition of the specific growth and fermentation rate as well as ethanol-induced stimulation of the specific death rate were much more drastic in simple medium. Present results show that (1) the complex composition of the medium used for alcoholic fermentation plays a marked role in the ability of the yeast to tolerate and produce ethanol; (2) J. a. juice proved a very appropriate medium for a productive alcoholic fermentation, namely, in processes based on strains with a low ethanol resistance; and (3) to characterize and compare the ethanol tolerance of fermenting yeasts, the standardization of the medium composition must be taken in consideration. 相似文献

Production of 21% (v/v) ethanol by fermentation of very high gravity (VHG) wheat mashes 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Summary Very high gravity wheat mashes containing 300 g or more sugares per liter were prepared by enzymatic hydrolysis of starch and fermented with a commercial preparation of active dry yeast. The active dry yeast used in this study was a blend of several strains ofSaccharomyces cerevisiae. The fermentation was carried out at 20°C at different pitching rates (inoculation levels) with and without the addition of yeast extract as nutrient supplement. At a pitching rate of 76 million cells per g of mash an ethanol yield of 20.4% (v/v) was obtained. To achieve this yeast extract must be added to the wheat mash as nutrient supplement. When the pitching rate was raised to 750 million cells per g of mash, the ethanol yield increased to 21.5% (v/v) and no nutrient supplement was required. The efficiency of conversion of sugar to ethanol was 97.6% at the highest pitching rate. This declined slightly with decreasing pitching rate. A high proportion of yeast cells lost viability at high pitching rates. It is suggested that nutrients released from yeast cells that lost viability and lysed, contributed to the high yield of ethanol in the absence of any added nutrients. 相似文献
