Abstract Plant secondary metabolites (PSM) and yeast supplemented in growing cattle have been reported as improving dry matter digestibility (DMD) and reducing enteric methane emissions. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of combined supplementation with condensed tannin (CT; Schinopsis balansae) extract and active dry yeast (ADY; Saccharomyces cerevisiae) on fermentation dynamics, utilizing in vitro gas production (IVGP) technique. A 2 × 2 Latin square design was used to study fermentation patterns of four dietary treatments (CON- no CT and no ADY, ADY alone, CT alone or combined CT + ADY). Animals received daily CT at 1% DM and 10 g of ADY, respectively. On d 0, 7, 14, 21, 28, and 35 rumen inoculum was collected from 23 fistulated steers (284.3 ± 4.1 kg) four hours post-feeding. Samples were incubated under anaerobic conditions at 39oC for 48 h with 200 mg of a grower diet (14.8% CP, 40.6% NDF, 88.5% DM). Gas parameters were analyzed using a mixed linear statistical model. There was a day effect for total gas production (TGP; P < 0.001), non-fiber carbohydrate degradation (P = 0.031) and fractional degradation assuming an asymptote model (P = 0.015). Both asymptote and non-fiber fractional degradation rate estimates had an interaction between Day × TRT (P = 0.001 and 0.0104, respectively). Data were analyzed using polynomial contrasts showed a difference in non-fiber fractional rate of fermentation for CON × CT and CT × ADY (P = 0.052 and 0.054, respectively). This was also true if an asymptote model was assumed (P = 0.0 34 and 0.034, respectively). We concluded that combined supplementation of CT and ADY exhibited similar IVGP trends over time, this may be because animals only received a grower diet at 1.5% shrunk BW. Future studies should investigate the impact of combined supplementation on varying levels of concentrate diets.

Yeast plays an essential role in winemaking. Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains involved in fermentation determine the chemical and sensory characteristics of wines. S. cerevisiae XG3, isolated in Galicia (NW Spain), has desirable oenological potential, which has been proved at a pilot scale to produce quality wines. This study applies XG3 as active dry yeast at an industrial scale for Treixadura wine elaboration, and compares it with commercial yeast and spontaneous fermentation within three wineries included in Denomination of Origin Ribeiro over two vintages. Fermentations are monitored using conventional methods, and microbiological implantation controls are carried out by mtDNA-RFLPs analysis. Wine basic chemical parameters are determined using OIV official methodology, and volatile aroma compounds are determined by GC-MS. Finally, wine sensory analysis is also performed. S. cerevisiae XG3 shows an acceptable implantation ability—as compared to commercial control strains. The wines from XG3 have a higher total acidity and lower alcohol content. Their volatile composition differs from control wines, since XG3 produces significantly higher concentrations of acetates, volatile acids, esters and volatile phenols, depending on the vintage and winery. However, lower differences are perceived at the sensory level, where fruity and floral descriptors are perceived by the panellists in XG3 wines. Therefore, XG3 constitutes an alternative to differentiate Treixadura wines.

ABSTRACT Here we show that the Saccharomyces cerevisiae tRNAHis guanylyltransferase Thg1p interacts with the origin recognition complex in vivo and in vitro and that overexpression of hemagglutinin-Thg1p selectively impedes growth of orc2-1(Ts) cells at the permissive temperature. Studies with conditional mutants indicate that Thg1p couples nuclear division and migration to cell budding and cytokinesis in yeast.

SR 31747 is a novel immunosuppressant agent that arrests cell proliferation in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, SR 31747-treated cells accumulate the same aberrant sterols as those found in a mutant impaired in delta 8- delta 7-sterol isomerase. Sterol isomerase activity is also inhibited by SR 31747 in in vitro assays. Overexpression of the sterol isomerase-encoding gene, ERG2, confers enhanced SR resistance. Cells growing anaerobically on ergosterol-containing medium are not sensitive to SR. Disruption of the sterol isomerase-encoding gene is lethal in cells growing in the absence of exogenous ergosterol, except in SR-resistant mutants lacking either the SUR4 or the FEN1 gene product. The results suggest that sterol isomerase is the target of SR 31747 and that both the SUR4 and FEN1 gene products are required to mediate the proliferation arrest induced by ergosterol depletion.

There is growing interest in the use of inulins as substrates for the selective growth of beneficial gut bacteria such as bifidobacteria and lactobacilli because recent studies have established that their prebiotic effect is linked to several health benefits. In the present study, the impact of a very-long-chain inulin (VLCI), derived from globe artichoke (Cynara scolymus), on the human intestinal microbiota compared with maltodextrin was determined. A double-blind, cross-over study was carried out in thirty-two healthy adults who were randomised into two groups and consumed 10 g/d of either VLCI or maltodextrin, for two 3-week study periods, separated by a 3-week washout period. Numbers of faecal bifidobacteria and lactobacilli were significantly higher upon VLCI ingestion compared with the placebo. Additionally, levels ofAtopobiumgroup significantly increased, whileBacteroides–Prevotellanumbers were significantly reduced. No significant changes in faecal SCFA concentrations were observed. There were no adverse gastrointestinal symptoms apart from a significant increase in mild and moderate bloating upon VLCI ingestion. These observations were also confirmed byin vitrogas production measurements. In conclusion, daily consumption of VLCI extracted from globe artichoke exerted a pronounced prebiotic effect on the human faecal microbiota composition and was well tolerated by all volunteers.

Рассмотрено влияние способа технологической обработки белого столового виноматериала на состав и концентрацию компонентов ароматобразующего комплекса и органических кислот. В качестве объекта исследований был белый столовый виноматериал Пино Блан урожая 2018 г. Виноматериал получен по следующей схеме: переработка винограда в мягком режиме путем пневмопрессования, отделение сусла первой фракции, осветление сусла с предварительным охлаждением, внесение подкормки для дрожжей АF1 в количестве 0,9 г/дм3, сбраживание сусла активными сухими дрожжами Saccharomyces cerevisiae раса WT1 (Германия). Установлено, что выдержка виноматериала на дрожжевом осадке привела к снижению концентрации винной и янтарной кислот, количество яблочной и лимонной кислот не изменилось. Отмечено увеличение количества молочной, уксусной, валериановой и изовалериановой кислот. В результате обработки бентонитом снизились концентрации валериановой и изовалериановой кислот. В результате брожения виноградного сусла в присутствии сухих дрожжей образуется большое количество эфиров, определяющих специфические оттенки и формирующих аромат виноматериала. Выдержка виноматериала на дрожжевом осадке способствовала повышению концентрации ацетальдегида, метилацетата, ацеталей, высших спиртов, эфира этилвалериата. Количество других эфиров и терпеновых соединений значительно уменьшилось. Обработка виноматериала бентонитом привела к уменьшению количества ароматобразующих компонентов на 8 16. The influence of the method of technological processing of white table wine material on the composition and concentration of components of the aromatic complex and organic acids is considered. White table wine material Pinot Blanc harvest 2018 was as an object of research. Wine material is obtained according to the following scheme: processing of grapes in the soft mode by pneumomassage, the separation of the wort of the first fraction, wort clarification with preliminary cooling to fertilize for yeast AF1 in an amount of 0,9 g/dm3, the fermentation wort active dry yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, race, WT1 (Germany). It was found that the aging of wine material on yeast sediment led to a decrease in the concentration of tartaric and succinic acids, the amount of malic and citric acids has not changed. An increase in the amount of lactic, acetic, valerian and isovaleric acids was noted. Concentrations of valerian and isovaleric acids decreased as a result of treatment by bentonite. A large number of esters, which determine the specific shades and form the aroma of wine material, is formed as a result of fermentation of grape must in the presence of dry yeast. The wine material aging on yeast sediment has contributed to increasing concentration in wine acetaldehyde, and methyl acetate, acetals, higher alcohols, ether of ethylmalonate, a number of other esters and terpenic compounds is significantly reduced. Treatment of wine material by bentonite led to a decrease in the number of aromatic components by 8 16.

The immunosuppressants cyclosporin A, FK506, and rapamycin inhibit growth of unicellular eukaryotic microorganisms and also block activation of T lymphocytes from multicellular eukaryotes. In vitro, these compounds bind and inhibit two different types of peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerases. Cyclosporin A binds cyclophilins, whereas FK506 and rapamycin bind FK506-binding proteins (FKBPs). Cyclophilins and FKBPs are ubiquitous, abundant, and targeted to multiple cellular compartments, and they may fold proteins in vivo. Previously, a 12-kDa cytoplasmic FKBP was shown to be only one of at least two FK506-sensitive targets in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We find that a second FK506-sensitive target is required for amino acid import. Amino acid-auxotrophic yeast strains (trp1 his4 leu2) are FK506 sensitive, whereas prototrophic strains (TRP1 his4 leu2, trp1 HIS4 leu2, and trp1 his4 LEU2) are FK506 resistant. Amino acids added exogenously to the growth medium mitigate FK506 toxicity. FK506 induces GCN4 expression, which is normally induced by amino acid starvation. FK506 inhibits transport of tryptophan, histidine, and leucine into yeast cells. Lastly, several genes encoding proteins involved in amino acid import or biosynthesis confer FK506 resistance. These findings demonstrate that FK506 inhibits amino acid import in yeast cells, most likely by inhibiting amino acid transporters. Amino acid transporters are integral membrane proteins which import extracellular amino acids and constitute a protein family sharing 30 to 35% identity, including eight invariant prolines. Thus, the second FK506-sensitive target in yeast cells may be a proline isomerase that plays a role in folding amino acid transporters during transit through the secretory pathway.

Fermentation Profile

Abstract The objective was to evaluate the fermentation profile, in vitro gas production and nutritional quality of pornunça (Manihot spp.) silages containing levels of condensed tannin (CT; 0, 4, 8 and 12% on dry matter (DM) basis), at five opening times (0, 3, 7, 14, 28 and 56 days). A completely randomized design in a 4 × 5 factorial arrangement was adopted, with four replications, totalling 80 experimental silos. The pH and NH3-N analyses were performed at all opening times of the silos. The other analyses were performed only with silages opened at 56 days of storage. There was an interaction effect between CT levels and silo opening times for pH and NH3-N. Tannin levels in pornunça silages after 56 days ensiling increased the pH and DM and reduced crude protein (CP) and neutral detergent fibre (NDF). There was a quadratic effect for NH3-N, acetic acid, butyric acid, gas losses, dry matter recovery (DMR), hemicellulose and acid detergent fibre. Inclusion of 4 and 8% CT in pornunça silage promotes a rapid decline in pH, being within the acceptable limit for adequate fermentation at 3 days of ensiling. Silages with 4% CT establish the pH at 28 days of opening the silos, with reduced NH3-N. Silages with 4% CT present higher concentrations of acetic and butyric acids and greater DMR. Inclusion of CT in pornunça silage after 56 days ensiling increases DM and reduces CP and NDF, directly affecting the in vitro degradability and reducing gas production.

Chromosome aberrations may cause cancer and many heritable diseases. Topoisomerase I has been suspected of causing chromosome aberrations by mediating illegitimate recombination. The effects of deletion and of overexpression of the topoisomerase I gene on illegitimate recombination in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae have been studied. Yeast transformations were carried out with DNA fragments that did not have any homology to the genomic DNA. The frequency of illegitimate integration was 6- to 12-fold increased in a strain overexpressing topoisomerase I compared with that in isogenic control strains. Hot spot sequences [(G/C)(A/T)T] for illegitimate integration target sites accounted for the majority of the additional events after overexpression of topoisomerase I. These hot spot sequences correspond to sequences previously identified in vitro as topoisomerase I preferred cleavage sequences in other organisms. Furthermore, such hot spot sequences were found in 44% of the integration events present in the TOP1 wild-type strain and at a significantly lower frequency in the top1delta strain. Our results provide in vivo evidence that a general eukaryotic topoisomerase I enzyme nicks DNA and ligates nonhomologous ends, leading to illegitimate recombination.
