Biotransformations were performed on eight selected yeast strains, all of which were able to selectively hydrogenate the chalcone derivatives 3-(2”-furyl)- (1) and 3-(2”-thienyl)-1-(2’-hydroxyphenyl)-prop-2-en-1-one (3) into 3-(2”-furyl)- (2) and 3-(2”-thienyl)-1-(2’-hydroxyphenyl)-propan-1-one (4) respectively. The highest efficiency of hydrogenation of the double bond in the substrate 1 was observed in the cultures of Saccharomyces cerevisiae KCh 464 and Yarrowia lipolytica KCh 71 strains. The substrate was converted into the product with > 99% conversion just in six hours after biotransformation started. The compound containing the sulfur atom in its structure was most effectively transformed by the Yarrowia lipolytica KCh 71 culture strain (conversion > 99%, obtained after three hours of substrate incubation). Also, we observed that, different strains of tested yeasts are able to carry out the bioreduction of the used substrate with different yields, depending on the presence of induced and constitutive ene reductases in their cells. The biggest advantage of this process is the efficient production of one product, practically without the formation of side products.

Research indicates that certain yeast strains are beneficial in their capacity to stimulate key microbial populations. This stimulation is strain specific with similar yeast strains exerting their effect on totally different microbial populations. Future yeast culture supplements may contain mixtures of different strains designed to suit specific diets. This, therefore, requires the development of a rapid sensitive technique to differentiate among taxonomically similar yeast strains in animal diets. This technique, termed the Randomly Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD) assay, is based upon the use of randomly designed short polynucleotide primers to amplify genetic sequences from the DNA of the desired yeast strain. Our objective involves the development of this technique to distinguish between closely related yeast strains present in feed. The feed sample investigated was a standard cattle ration containing three strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae (1026, 2045 and 2020) and Candida utilis 3001 at a concentration of 106 CFU/g respectively. Isolation of single colonies of yeast strains present was achieved by feed extraction in dilution buffer followed by plating a series of dilutions on rose-bengal agar. Thirty randomly selected colonies were cultured in YPD (1% yeast extract, 2% peptone, 2% glucose) broth for 24 - 30 hours at 30°C. Genomic DNA was isolated from yeast cells by standard methods based on subjection of the cells to vortex mixing in the presence of glass beads, triton X-100, sodium dodecyl sulphate, phenol and chloroform. Isolated DNA from randomly selected colonies was amplified by Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) for 45 cycles of 1 min at 94°C, 1 min at 36°C and 1 min at 72°C using randomly designed 10 bp primers.

ABSTRACT Wine yeast starters that contain a mixture of different industrial yeasts with various properties may soon be introduced to the market. The mechanisms underlying the interactions between the different strains in the starter during alcoholic fermentation have never been investigated. We identified and investigated some of these interactions in a mixed culture containing two yeast strains grown under enological conditions. The inoculum contained the same amount (each) of a strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and a natural hybrid strain of S. cerevisiae and Saccharomyces uvarum. We identified interactions that affected biomass, by-product formation, and fermentation kinetics, and compared the redox ratios of monocultures of each strain with that of the mixed culture. The redox status of the mixed culture differed from that of the two monocultures, showing that the interactions between the yeast strains involved the diffusion of metabolite(s) within the mixed culture. Since acetaldehyde is a potential effector of fermentation, we investigated the kinetics of acetaldehyde production by the different cultures. The S. cerevisiae-S. uvarum hybrid strain produced large amounts of acetaldehyde for which the S. cerevisiae strain acted as a receiving strain in the mixed culture. Since yeast response to acetaldehyde involves the same mechanisms that participate in the response to other forms of stress, the acetaldehyde exchange between the two strains could play an important role in inhibiting some yeast strains and allowing the growth of others. Such interactions could be of particular importance in understanding the ecology of the colonization of complex fermentation media by S. cerevisiae.

The large amount of jackfruit (Artocarpus heterophyllus Lam) harvested and their short use time caused many difficulties for the farmers. Fortunately, the high sugar content in jackfruit meat is a hopeful substance for wine production. This study aimed to consider the effect of yeast strains and their concentration on fermented jackfruit solution. Jackfruit juice with 14 °Brix is ​​fermented using 0.005 to 0.015% (w/v) Saccharomyces cerevisiae RV002, Mauri Instant Dry Yeast yeast under anaerobic conditions for 1 to 4 days at 30 °C. Survey samples were checked once a day to analyze the indicators. The functional report of the sugar in the fermentation time, shows that the higher incidence of yeast cultures and the initial sugar concentration inhibited yeast growth. The results showed that fermentation from jackfruit meat with 25 °Brix using Saccharomyces cerevisiae RV002 yeast with concentration of 0.01% for 3 days is the best to create a good quality with ethanol content 4,9% and characteristic aroma of jackfruit.

We have examined the mitotic and meiotic properties of telomeric regions in various laboratory strains of yeast. Using a sequence (Y probe) derived from a cloned yeast telomere (J. Szostak and E. Blackburn, Cell 29:245-255, 1982), we found that various strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae show extensive polymorphisms of restriction endonuclease fragment length. Some of the variation in the lengths of telomeric fragments appears to be under the control of a small number of genes. When DNA from various strains was digested with endonuclease KpnI, nearly all of the fragments homologous to the Y probe were found to be of different size. The pattern of fragments in different strains was extremely variable, with a greater degree of polymorphism than that observed for fragments containing the mobile TY1 element. Tetrad analysis of haploid meiotic segregants from diploids heterozygous for many different Y-homologous KpnI fragments revealed that most of them exhibited Mendelian (2:0) segregation. However, only a small proportion of these fragments displayed the obligate 2:2 parental segregation expected of simple allelic variants at the same chromosome end. From the segregations of these fragments, we concluded that some yeast telomeres lack a Y-homologous sequence and that the chromosome arms containing a Y-homologous sequence are different among various yeast strains. Regions near yeast telomeres frequently undergo rearrangement. Among eight tetrads from three different diploids, we have found three novel Y-homologous restriction fragments that appear to have arisen during meiosis. In all three cases, the appearance of a new fragment was accompanied by the loss of another band. In one of these cases, the rearrangement leading to a novel fragment arose in an isogenic diploid, in which both homologous chromosomes should have been identical. Among these same tetrads we also found examples of apparent mitotic gene conversions and mitotic recombination involving telemetric regions.

ABSTRACT Resveratrol synthesis from p-coumarate was analyzed in different Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains expressing the 4-coumaroyl-coenzyme A ligase (4CL1) from Arabidopsis thaliana and the stilbene synthase (STS) from Vitis vinifera and compared between yeast cultures growing in rich or synthetic medium. The use of rich medium considerably improved resveratrol production, and resveratrol yields of up to 391 mg/liter could be achieved with an industrial Brazilian sugar cane-fermenting yeast.

The use of biofuels as an alternative to fossil fuels has expanded in the last few decades. The aim of this study was to examine the application of different strains and forms of Saccharomyces cerevisiae for raw, thin and thick juice fermentation in order to produce bioethanol. According to the obtained results the strain applied in the form of pressed blocks with 70 % w/w moisture, attained higher value of the specific growth rate and lower value of ethanol yield in comparison with strains applied in dried form. In all culture media attained efficiency of sugar utilization was at least from 98-99 % w/w. Maximum productivity was achieved around 30th hour of fermentation and amounted ?1.8 g l?? h?? for all applied yeast strains. Therefore, optimal duration of the process in technical and economic terms should be considered.

Nemea and Mantinia are famous wine regions in Greece known for two indigenous grape varieties, Agiorgitiko and Moschofilero, which produce high quality PDO wines. In the present study, indigenous Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast strains were isolated and identified from spontaneous alcoholic fermentation of Agiorgitiko and Moschofilero musts in order to evaluate their oenological potential. Random amplified polymorphic DNA-polymerase chain reaction (RAPD-PCR) recovered the presence of five distinct profiles from a total of 430 yeast isolates. The five obtained strains were evaluated at microvinifications trials and tested for basic oenological and biochemical parameters including sulphur dioxide and ethanol tolerance as well as H2S production in sterile grape must. The selected autochthonous yeast strains named, Soi2 (Agiorgitiko wine) and L2M (Moschofilero wine), were evaluated also in industrial (4000L) fermentations to assess their sensorial and oenological characteristics. The volatile compounds of the produced wines were determined by GC-FID. Our results demonstrated the feasibility of using Soi2 and L2M strains in industrial fermentations for Agiorgitiko and Moschofilero grape musts, respectively.

2-Phenylethanol (2-PE) is an aromatic alcohol with a rosy scent which is widely used in the food, fragrance, and cosmetic industries. Promising sources of natural 2-PE are microorganisms, especially yeasts, which can produce 2-PE by biosynthesis and biotransformation. Thus, the first challenging goal in the development of biotechnological production of 2-PE is searching for highly productive yeast strains. In the present work, 5 laboratory <i>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</i> strains were tested for the production of 2-PE. Thereafter, 2 of them were hybridized by a mating procedure and, as a result, a new diploid, <i>S. cerevisiae</i> AM1-d, was selected. Within the 72-h batch culture in a medium containing 5 g/L of <smlcap>L</smlcap>-phenylalanine, AM1-d produced 3.83 g/L of 2-PE in a shaking flask. In this way, we managed to select the diploid <i>S. cerevisiae</i> AM1-d strain, showing a 3- and 5-fold increase in 2-PE production in comparison to parental strains. Remarkably, the enhanced production of 2-PE by the hybrid of 2 yeast laboratory strains is demonstrated here for the first time.
