Owing to diminishing fossil fuel reserves, alternative energy sources need to be renewable, sustainable, efficient, cost-effective, convenient and safe.1 In recent decades, microbial production of ethanol has been considered as an alternative fuel for the future because fossil fuels are depleting. Several microorganisms, including Clostridium sp. and yeast, the well-known ethanol producers Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Zymomonas mobilis, are suitable candidates to produce ethanol.2,3...

Feedback inhibition of amino acid transporters by amino acids synthesized by the cells might be responsible for the well known fact that blocking protein synthesis by cycloheximide in Saccharomyces cerevisiae inhibits the uptake of most amino acids [56]. Indeed, under these conditions, endogenous amino acids continue to accumulate. This situation, which precludes studying amino acid transport in yeast in the presence of inhibitors of protein synthesis, is very different from that observed in bacteria, where amino acid uptake is commonly measured in the presence of chloramphenicol in order to isolate the uptake process from further metabolism of accumulated substances. In yeast, when nitrogen starvation rather than cycloheximide is used to block protein synthesis, this leads to very high uptake activity. This fact supports the feedback inhibition interpretation of the observed cycloheximide effect. 

The two hepatitis B vaccines available in the United States are Recombivax HB and Engerix-B. These vaccines are produced with recombinant DNA technology by inserting the gene for HBsAg into the plasmid that is synthesized by Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells. Both vaccines are effective in providing...

In addition to bacterial conversion of L-methionine to cheese aroma compounds, certain cheese-ripening yeasts have been implicated. They include De-baromyces hansenii, Geotrichum candidum, and Yarrowia lipolytica, in addition to Kluyveromyces lactis and Saccharomyces cerevisiae (previously noted). Of these yeasts, Geotrichum candidum was most effective at producing sulfur compounds with the major product being S-methyl thioacetate, with smaller amounts of MT, DMS, DMDS, and DMTS. Kluyveromyces lactis had a similar profile, but produced a much smaller amount of S-methyl thioacetate than did G. candidum. S-Methyl thioacetate is formed by a reaction of MT and acetyl-CoA (Equation 7) ...

DNB on mitotic recombination in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Doses of up to 32 mg/mL were administered, but no genotoxic effects of any kind were observed either with or without metabolic activation (McGregor et al. 1980).

These optical probes are the most universally applicable in situ devices for on-line biomass monitoring up to now [15,16]. Konstaninov et al. [17] tested several absorbance and scattering sensors for real-time biomass concentration monitoring in mammalian cell cultivation processes and Hatch and Veilleux [18] compared optical density probes with oxygen uptake rates, packed cell volume, and off-line cell mass monitoring in commercial fed-batch fermentations of Saccharomyces cerevisiae [19]. In order to minimize influencing effects, special chemometric data treatment is necessary [20].
