The budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is now widely used as a model organism in the study of gene structure, function, and regulation in addition to its more traditional use as a workhorse of the brewing and baking industries. In this article the plethora of methods available for manipulating the genome of S. cerevisiae are reviewed. This will include a discussion of methods for manipulating individual genes and whole chromosomes, and will address both classic genetic and recombinant DNA-based methods. Furthermore, a critical evaluation of the various genetic strategies for genetically manipulating this simple eukaryote will be included, highlighting the requirements of both the new and the more traditional biotechnology industries. 相似文献

Mutational analysis is an essential tool for understanding the functions of genes within a living organism. The budding yeastSaccharomyces cerevisiaeprovides an excellent model system for dissecting the genetics of histone function at the molecular and cellular levels. A simple gene organization, plus a wide variety of genetic strategies, makes it possible to directly manipulate a specific histone genein vitroand then examine the expression of mutant allelesin vivo.Recent methods for manipulating the yeast histone genes have been designed to facilitate both site-directed analysis of structure/function relationships and unbiased screens targeted at specific functional pathways. The conservation of histone and nucleosome structure throughout evolution means that the principles discovered through genetic studies in yeast will be broadly applicable to the chromatin of more complex eukaryotes. 相似文献

Industrial biotechnology employs the controlled use of microorganisms for the production of synthetic chemicals or simple
biomass that can further be used in a diverse array of applications that span the pharmaceutical, chemical and nutraceutical
industries. Recent advances in metagenomics and in the incorporation of entire biosynthetic pathways into Saccharomyces cerevisiae have greatly expanded both the fitness and the repertoire of biochemicals that can be synthesized from this popular microorganism.
Further, the availability of the S. cerevisiae entire genome sequence allows the application of systems biology approaches for improving its enormous biosynthetic potential.
In this review, we will describe some of the efforts on using S. cerevisiae as a cell factory for the biosynthesis of high-value natural products that belong to the families of isoprenoids, flavonoids
and long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids. As natural products are increasingly becoming the center of attention of the pharmaceutical
and nutraceutical industries, the use of S. cerevisiae for their production is only expected to expand in the future, further allowing the biosynthesis of novel molecular structures
with unique properties. 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 unexpected discovery of two prions, [URE3] and [PSI+], in Saccharomyces cerevisiae led to questions about how many other proteins could undergo similar prion-based structural conversions. However, [URE3] and [PSI+] were discovered by serendipity in genetic screens. Cataloging the full range of prions in yeast or in other organisms will therefore require more systematic search methods. Taking advantage of some of the unique features of prions, various researchers have developed bioinformatic and experimental methods for identifying novel prion proteins. These methods have generated long lists of prion candidates. The systematic testing of some of these prion candidates has led to notable successes; however, even in yeast, where rapid growth rate and ease of genetic manipulation aid in testing for prion activity, such candidate testing is laborious. Development of better methods to winnow the field of prion candidates will greatly aid in the discovery of new prions, both in yeast and in other organisms, and help us to better understand the role of prions in biology. 相似文献

In this study, the production of enantiomerically pure (1R,4S,6S)-6-hydroxy-bicyclo[2.2.2]octane-2-one ((−)-2) through stereoselective bioreduction was used as a model reaction for the comparison of engineered Saccharomyces cerevisiae and engineered Escherichia coli as biocatalysts. For both microorganisms, over-expression of the gene encoding the NADPH-dependent aldo-keto reductase YPR1
resulted in high purity of the keto alcohol (−)-2 (>99% ee, 97–98% de). E. coli had three times higher initial reduction rate but S. cerevisiae continued the reduction reaction for a longer time period, thus reaching a higher conversion of the substrate (95%). S. cerevisiae was also more robust than E. coli, as demonstrated by higher viability during bioreduction. It was also investigated whether the NADPH regeneration rate was
sufficient to supply the over-expressed reductase with NADPH. Five strains of each microorganism with varied carbon flux through
the NADPH regenerating pentose phosphate pathway were genetically constructed and compared. S. cerevisiae required an increased NADPH regeneration rate to supply YPR1 with co-enzyme while the native NADPH regeneration rate was
sufficient for E. coli.

Glutathione: a review on biotechnological production 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
This Mini-Review summarizes the historic developments and technological achievements in the biotechnological production of glutathione in the past 30 years. Glutathione is the most abundant non-protein thiol compound present in living organisms. It is used as a pharmaceutical compound and can be used in food additives and the cosmetic industries. Glutathione can be produced using enzymatic methods in the presence of ATP and its three precursor amino acids (l-glutamic acid, l-cysteine, glycine). Alternatively, glutathione can be produced by direct fermentative methods using sugar as a starting material. In the latter method, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Candida utilis are currently used to produce glutathione on an industrial scale. At the molecular level, the genes gshA and gshB, which encode the enzymes -glutamylcysteine synthetase and glutathione synthetase, respectively, have been cloned from Escherichia coli and over-expressed in E. coli, S. cerevisiae, and Lactococcus lactis. It is anticipated that, with the design and/or discovery of novel producers, the biotechnological production of glutathione will be further improved to expand the application range of this physiologically and medically important tripeptide. 相似文献

Summary The use of microorganisms in biotechnology is an important economic area of interest in Brazil, especially the use of Saccharomyces cerevisiae in the baking and alcohol fermentation industries. Dimorphism in S. cerevisiae (cell morphology alterations from budding cells to filamentous structures) has been observed in conditions of nitrogen and
carbon deprivation and in the presence of fusel alcohols. This can be described as a defense mechanism that allows the yeast
to forage for nutrients through cell elongation, hyphal formation and invasive growth. In this work fifteen industrial strains
of S. cerevisiae (including haploid and diploid strains) isolated from the fermentative process for alcohol production were characterized
for filamentation on solid culture media under growth conditions of carbon- and nitrogen-deprivation and in the presence of
fusel alcohols. The majority of strains showed filamentation induced by isoamyl alcohol, butanol, isopropanol and isobutanol,
but not by methanol. In rich medium (YEPD), both haploid and diploid strains showed invasive growth, although this kind of
filamentous growth was more common in haploid strains. Similar results were observed when fructose or mannose was used as
the sole carbon source. In nitrogen-deficient medium (SLAD) the strains did not filament. The results obtained indicate that
the filamentation induced by higher alcohols and carbon deprivation (specially carbon) is a common process in industrial strains
of S. cerevisiae contributing towards their maintenance/survival in adverse conditions. 相似文献
