Chromium(III) is considered as an essential element for carbohydrate and lipid metabolism. The aim of this clinical study
was to evaluate the efficacy of Cr brewer’s yeast supplementation on body mass, carbohydrate, lipids and mineral indices in
type 2 diabetic patients. Twenty adult type 2 diabetic subjects (11 males and 9 females aged 37–63) were supplemented with
Cr brewer’s yeast in dosages of 500 μg Cr/person/day or placebo for 8 weeks in a double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover
design. It was found that supplemental Cr did not affect body mass, blood lipid profile, resistin levels, and the serum and
hair Zn, Fe, and Cu levels, but increased serum Cr (by 116%) and hair Cr (by 20.6%) concentrations and improved some blood
carbohydrate indices (significant increase in the β cell function index by 18.8%) in type 2 diabetic patients. In conclusion,
Cr brewer’s yeast has a weak hypoglycemic potential, but does not affect body mass, blood biochemical profile, and microelement
levels in type 2 diabetic subjects. 相似文献

Brewer’s yeast strain optimisation may lead to a more efficient beer production process, better final quality or healthier
beer. However, brewer’s yeast genetic improvement is very challenging, especially true when it comes to lager brewer’s yeast
(Saccharomyces pastorianus) which contributes to 90% of the total beer market. This yeast is a genetic hybrid and allopolyploid. While early studies
applying traditional genetic approaches encountered many problems, the development of rational metabolic engineering strategies
successfully introduced many desired properties into brewer’s yeast. Recently, the first genome sequence of a lager brewer’s
strain became available. This has opened the door for applying advanced omics technologies and facilitating inverse metabolic engineering strategies. The latter approach takes advantage of natural diversity
and aims at identifying and transferring the crucial genetic information for an interesting phenotype. In this way, strains
can be optimised by introducing “natural” mutations. However, even when it comes to self-cloned strains, severe concerns about
genetically modified organisms used in the food and beverage industry are still a major hurdle for any commercialisation.
Therefore, research efforts will aim at developing new sophisticated screening methods for the isolation of natural mutants
with the desired properties which are based on the knowledge of genotype–phenotype linkage. 相似文献

Ethyl(R)-4-chloro-3-hydroxybutanoate ((R)-CHBE) are obtained by cetyltrimetylammonium bromide (CTAB) permeabilized fresh brewer’s
yeast whole cells bioconversion of ethyl 4-chloro-3-oxobutanoate (COBE ) in the presence of allyl bromide. The results showed
that the activities of alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH) in CTAB permeabilized brewer’s
yeast cells increased 525 and 7.9-fold, respectively, compared with that in the nonpermeabilized cells and had high enantioselectivity
to convert COBE to (R)-CHBE. As one of co-substrates, glucose-6-phosphate was preprepared using glucose phosphorylation by hexokinase-catalyzed
of CTAB permeabilized brewer’s yeast cells. In a two phase reaction system with n-butyl acetate as organic solvent and with 2-propanol and glucose-6-phosphate as co-substrates, the highest (R)-CHBE concentration of 447 mM was obtained with 110–130 g/l of the CTAB permeabilized cells at optimized pH, temperature,
feeding rate and the shake speed of 125 r/min. The yield and enantiomeric excess (ee) of (R)-CHBE reached 99.5 and 99%, respectively, within 6 h. 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

Sphingolipids having a long-chain sphingoid base backbone are primarily located in the yeast’s plasma membrane. They are found
in various types of foods, and although they are not essential food ingredients, they play an important role as bioactive
molecules in preventing certain human diseases. Today, due to its high nutritional value, brewer’s yeast is increasingly being
used in the food and pharmaceutical industry. The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential of S. uvarum, a by-product of the brewing industry, as an economically feasible source of sphingolipids. For that purpose, the growth
phase dependence on sphingolipid production in S. uvarum as well as the effect of zeolite addition to the growth medium was investigated. The experiments were designed to explore
the dependence of growth phase on sphingolipids metabolism, by comparing initial (starter) culture of brewer’s yeast (laboratory
propagated, designated as zero yeast generation, serving here as control), and surplus brewer’s yeast (a residue produced
after 5 successive beer fermentations), by-product of beer fermentation, with and without the addition of zeolite. HPLC analysis
of individual molecular species of sphingoid bases obtained by acid hydrolysis of complex sphingolipids from S. uvarum yeast produced the following results: about 65% of total sphingoid bases represents C18 phytosphingosine, about 32% represents
unknown long-chain base, and about 1.5–2% represents C18 DL-erythro-sphinganine. In the case of C18 phytosphingosine, production
was about 11.5-fold higher during exponential phase compared with the other growth phases. For C18 DL-erythro-sphinganine,
production was highest during the lag and acceleration phase of growth. In most cases, zeolite addition (1%) to the growth
medium resulted in an increase up to 2.5-fold in the sphingoid bases level. 相似文献

High-gravity brewing, which can decrease production costs by increasing brewery yields, has become an attractive alternative
to traditional brewing methods. However, as higher sugar concentration is required, the yeast is exposed to various stresses
during fermentation. We evaluated the influence of high-gravity brewing on the fermentation performance of the brewer’s yeast
under model brewing conditions. The lager brewer’s strain Weihenstephan 34/70 strain was characterized at three different
gravities by adding either glucose or maltose syrups to the basic wort. We observed that increased gravity resulted in a lower
specific growth rate, a longer lag phase before initiation of ethanol production, incomplete sugar utilization, and an increase
in the concentrations of ethyl acetate and isoamyl acetate in the final beer. Increasing the gravity by adding maltose syrup
as opposed to glucose syrup resulted in more balanced fermentation performance in terms of higher cell numbers, respectively,
higher wort fermentability and a more favorable flavor profile of the final beer. Our study underlines the effects of the
various stress factors on brewer’s yeast metabolism and the influence of the type of sugar syrups on the fermentation performance
and the flavor profile of the final beer. 相似文献

The effects of industrial storage on the changes of the cell viability and the activities of intracellular alcohol dehydrogenase
(ADH) and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH) in brewer’s yeast, and the corresponding capacity for the bioconversion
of ethyl-3-oxobutanoate (EOB) to ethyl (S)-3-hydroxybutanoate ((S)-EHB), were investigated. The viability of fresh brewer’s yeast cells stored in industrial circulating cooling water at 1–2°C
showed 4 and 15% drop after the storage of 7 and 15 days, respectively, after which cells died rapidly. The pretreatment of
the stored brewer’s yeast cells by washing and screening significantly enhanced cell viability during industrial storage.
The intracellular levels of ADH and G6PDH after permeabilization of these stored cells with cetyltrimetylammonium bromide
(CTAB) were much higher, which showed only slight decrease within 2 weeks during the industrial storage. When the stored cells
after the permeabilization treatment was used as the biocatalyst at 90–120 g/L, EOB was converted almost completely into enantiopure
(S)-EHB with an enantiomeric excess (ee) more than 99% and a yield of over 96%, by fed-batch bioconversion of 560 mM EOB within 6 h.

A biosorption process has been developed for the bioremediation of heavy metal-contaminated acid drainages from Merladet and Faith open-cast mines, located in western Spain. The process is based on the physico-chemical properties for the adsorption, ion
exchange, and complexation of metal ions by biopolymers (chitin and α (1,3) β-D-glucan) from industrial biowaste exhausted
brewer’s yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae L.). Firstly, the chemical composition (U, Mn, Al, Fe, Cu, Zn, and Ni) and the physico-chemical and ecological states of
these acid mine drainages were characterised. Furthermore, the selectivity for Zn, Cu, Mn, Ni, and Al the first order kinetics
and the performance of the metals biosorption process by exhausted brewer’s yeast were evaluated with polluted acid synthetic
waters and mine drainages. The biosorption equilibria were reached in 10 ∼ 15 min following Langmuir type isotherms with higher
affinity constants for metal-biosorbent binding for synthetic waters than for acid mine drainages. The efficiency of the process
with real water samples was markedly lower for the case of Mn, and zero for Zn and Al. An antagonistic interference on the
biosorption of a metal due to the presence of other metals is proposed. Finally, the ecotoxicity of the acid mine drainage
was removed when it was incubated with brewer’s yeast trapped in polyurethane foam. 相似文献

Maltotriose is metabolized by baker’s and brewer’s yeast only oxidatively, with a respiratory quotient of 1.0, the
being, depending on the strain used, 0–11, as compared with
of 6–42μL CO2 per h per mg dry substance. The transport appeared to proceed by facilitated diffusion (no effects of NaF, iodoacetamide
and 3-chlorophenylhydrazonomalononitrile) with a KT of more than 50mm and was inhibited by maltose > maltotriose > methyl-α-D-glucoside > maltotetraose >D-fruetose >D-glucose. The transport was present constitutively in bothSaccharomyces cerevisiae (baker’s yeast) and inS. uvarum (brewer’s yeast) and it was not significantly stimulated by preincubation with glucose or maltose. The pH optimum was 4.5–5.5,
the temperature dependence yielded an activation energy of 26 kJ/mol. 相似文献

This paper reports on the experimental data supporting an essential role of extra-cellular reduction in chromate detoxification
by baker’s and non-conventional yeasts. A decrease of chromate content in the yeast culture coincides with an increase of
Cr(III) content in extra-cellular liquid. At these conditions, cell-bound chromium level was insignificant and a dominant
part of extra-cellular Cr(III) species was detected in the reaction with chromazurol S only after mineralization of the cell-free
samples. This phenomenon of chromium “disappearance” can be explained by the formation of Cr(III) stable complexes with extra-cellular
yeast-secreted components which are “inaccessible” in the reaction with chromazurol S without mineralization. It was shown
that increasing sucrose concentration in a growth medium resulted in an increase of chromate reduction. A strong inhibition
of chromate reduction by 0.25 mM sodium azide, a respiration inhibitor and a protonophore, testifies that extra-cellular chromate
detoxification depends on energetic status of the yeast cells. It was shown that Cr(III)-biochelates produced in extra-cellular
medium are of a different chemical nature and can be separated into at least two components by ion-exchange chromatography
on anionit Dowex 1x10. A total yield of the isolated Cr(III)-biocomplexes is approximately 65 % (from initial level of chromate)
with a relative molar ratio 8:5. 相似文献

Kinetic and Morphological Observations on the Yeast Phase of Histoplasma capsulatum During Protoplast Formation 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2 下载免费PDF全文
Protoplast formation by Histoplasma capsulatum yeasts using high concentrations of MgSO(4) occurs either by lysis of the bud or lysis of the entire cell wall. Both mechanisms may also occur simultaneously. Neither the protoplast emerging through a hole in the cell wall nor the freshly released protoplast has a recognizable cell wall or the remnant of such. The protoplast contains all the organelles of the normal cell except for mesosomes. During protoplast formation the nucleus increases in size and produces several nuclear masses by the invaginations of the internal layer of the nuclear membrane. All these nuclear masses are surrounded by the external layer of the nuclear membrane. Several nuclei with a normal nuclear membrane are formed later. 相似文献

In the present study, permeated yeast cells were used as the catalyst to synthesize glutathione. When waste cells of brewer’s
yeast were incubated with the three precursor amino acids and glucose for 36 h, 899 mg/L of glutathione were produced. To
release the feedback inhibition of γ-glutamylcysteine synthetase caused by glutathione, two-stage reaction was adopted. In
the first stage, glycine was omitted from the reaction mixture and only γ-glutamylcysteine was formed. Glycine was then added
in the second stage, and 1,569 mg/L of glutathione were produced. The conditions of the two-stage reaction were optimized
using Plackett–Burman design and response surface methodology. Under the optimized condition, commercially available baker’s
yeast produced 3,440 mg/L of glutathione in 30 h, and most of the produced glutathione was in the medium. The two-stage reaction
could effectively reduce the feedback inhibition caused by glutathione, but degradation of glutathione was significant. 相似文献

A comparative study of submicroscopic structures of protoplasts of various yeast species 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Marie Havelková 《Folia microbiologica》1966,11(6):453-458
A submicroscopic structure was studied of protoplasts of five different yeast species multiplying by budding, formation of
cross septum and by a division typical for apiculate yeasts. The protoplasts retain their species specificity. Most considerable
changes typical for the conversion of a cell to protoplast are found in membrane cell systems. The reduction of membranes
of the endoplasmic reticulum is particularly striking. Both membrane units are frequently separated from each other by lenticular
pseudovacuoles. Mitochondria in protoplasts are swollen and their number is reduced approximately two-fold. Defects are often
observed in a nuclear membrane. The perinuclear space is usually extended by lenticular pseudovacuoles. A large number of
vacuoles is observed in the basic protoplast cytoplasm. The surface of the protoplasts of all species studied is formed only
by a cytoplasmic membrane. A partially digested original cell wall often adheres to protoplasts ofSchizosaccharomyces pombe. 相似文献

The neutral lipid fraction of the aerobically grown starter yeast culture of a Saccharomyces cerevisiae brewing strain, and three-first recycled yeast generations exposed to multiple stress factors during beer fermentation was
studied. No pronounced changes in the cellular neutral lipid content between the non-stressed starter and stressed recycled
cells were found. However, it was found that recycled yeast generations modulate their neutral lipid composition during fermentation.
The ergosterol content was increased at the expense of steryl esters (SEs) and squalene, which resulted in a higher ergosterol/SEs
molar ratio and a slightly higher ergosterol/squalene molar ratio. In addition, the proportion of unsaturated fatty acids,
mainly palmitoleic acid increased in the neutral lipid fraction of the stressed recycled yeast generations. These results
suggest that some specific neutral lipid species and fatty acids stored in the neutral lipid fraction are involved in the
adaptive response of the brewer’s yeast to stressful fermentation conditions. The striking finding was a high squalene content
in the neutral lipid fraction of both the starter yeast culture and recycled yeast generations (22.4 vs. 19–20%, respectively),
implying a possible biotechnological exploitation of this biologically active molecule from the yeast biomass. 相似文献

The mixture of chromium, nicotinic acid and the amino acids glycine, glutamic acid and cysteine which stimulates the rate of CO2 production in a yeast bioassay system was subjected to the separation scheme based on ion-exchange chromatography which has been used to separate the chromium- containing fractions in brewer's yeast, [S.J. Haylock, P.D. Buckley and L.F. Blackwell, J. Inorg. Biochem., 18, 195 (1983)]. Four chromium-containing fractions (C2 to C5) were obtained by salt gradients and two further fractions (G1 and G2) were obtained using a pH gradient. All were amino acid-containing complexes of chromium and all except C5 also contained nicotinic acid. However, none of the isolated chromium fractions showed any activity in a yeast bioassay. On the basis of previous work, the activity of the original mixture was attributed to the presence of an oxygen-coordinated trans chromium(III)-dinicotinate complex. Biologically- inactive chromium complexes such as Cr(glu)2(H2O)+2 and Cr(gly)2(H2O)+2 after elution by ammonium hydroxide from Dowex 50W-X12 cation- exchange columns, stimulated the rate of CO2 production in the yeast bioassay. Elution with other bases, such as lithium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide and sodium hydroxide led to inactive fractions in all cases. A warning is therefore given that the use of ammonium hydroxide-elution of ion-exchange columns to isolate glucose tolerance factor fractions from biological samples (such as brewer's yeast) can lead to active fractions which do not relate to the native material. 相似文献

Structural and immunological studies on the protoplast membrane of the yeast Candida utilis 总被引:2,自引:1,他引:1 下载免费PDF全文

Cell membranes of the yeast Candida utilis isolated by lysis of protoplasts have been shown to be lipoprotein in nature. Electron microscopy shows that Mg++ is responsible for maintaining the integrity of the membrane. A close serological relationship was found between membranes and cell walls isolated from the yeast. This relationship was exhibited not only by membranes obtained by strepzyme treatment but also by those obtained from the action of helicase enzyme. No such relationship existed between membranes and whole cells. Related data have been obtained by treatment of yeasts with different digestive enzymes. All of the results suggest that the protoplast membrane possesses traces of structural cell wall material. This material is detectable by serological tests, but not by electron microscopy. 相似文献

Beneficial effects of chromium in people with type 2 diabetes, and urinary chromium response to glucose load as a possible indicator of status 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
No reliable method for the estimation of chromium (Cr) status is available yet. The aim of this study is to investigate the
possibility of using urinary Cr response to glucose load as an indicator of Cr status. Seventy-eight non-insulin-dependent
diabetes mellitus patients were divided randomly into two groups and given Cr supplements as brewer’s yeast and CrCl3 sequentially with placebo in between, in a double-blind, crossover design of four stages, each lasting 8 wk. At the beginning
and end of each stage, subjects were weighed, their dietary data and drug dosage recorded, and blood and urine samples collected
for analysis of glucose and urinary chromium (fasting and 2 h post-75-g glucose load) and fructosamine.
The mean urinary Cr after the glucose load was significantly higher than the fasting mean at zero time (p<0.01). However, only 52 of the patients showed an obvious increase; the others showed a slight decrease or no change. Both
supplements caused a significant increase in the means of urinary Cr and a significant decrease in the means of glucose and
fructosamine. Only those subjects responding to Cr supplement by improved glucose control showed an increase in post-glucose-load
urinary Cr over fasting level, after the supplement but not at zero time. Therefore, it was concluded that urinary Cr response
to glucose load could be used as an indicator of Cr status. 相似文献

In this study, a characterization of cell wall polysaccharide composition of three yeasts involved in the production of agave
distilled beverages was performed. The three yeast strains were isolated from different media (tequila, mezcal and bakery)
and were evaluated for the β(1,3)-glucanase lytic activity and the β-glucan/mannan ratio during the fermentation of Agave tequilana juice and in YPD media (control). Fermentations were performed in shake flasks with 30 g l−1 sugar concentration of A. tequilana juice and with the control YPD using 30 g l−1 of glucose. The three yeasts strains showed different levels of β-glucan and mannan when they were grown in A. tequilana juice in comparison to the YPD media. The maximum rate of cell wall lyses was 50% lower in fermentations with A. tequilana juice for yeasts isolated from tequila and mezcal than compared to the bakery yeast. 相似文献
