Abstract:The isolation and regenration of prostoplasts from Lipomyces starkeyi have been optimised. Snail enzyme (12 mg·ml?1) proved to be the most effective lytic enzyme although treatment with Novozym 234, Cellulase CP and β-glucanase also resulted in protoplast formation. Magnesium sulphate (0.55 M) was shown to be the best fro protoplast isolation. Exponential phase cells were most susceptible to the lytic enzyme, stationary phase cells appeared to be resistant. 2-Mercaptoethanol or dithiothreitol did not enahance the isolation of protoplasts in this yeast. The optimum pH for protoplast isolation was 5.8. Ultrastructural observations were made on cells during lytic digestion and revealed that the cell wall and capsule are stripped away from the protoplast.Protoplast synthesised new cell wall material when cultured on osmotically stabilised medium, regeneration was not oberved in liquid medium. Optimum regeneration occured when protoplasts were embedded in a thin layer of minimal medium osmotically stabilised with mannitol (0.6M) and solidified with 1.5–2.0% agar. A basal layer of medium was also stabilised with mannitol (0.6 M) but contained 3% agar. The lytic enzyme used for protoplast isolation did not appear to effect the regeneration of protoplasts.
