Survival kit of Saccharomyces cerevisiae for anhydrobiosis
Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2014Yeast cells are well adapted to interfacial habitats, such as the surfaces of soil or plants, where they can resist frequent fluctuations between wet and dry conditions. Saccharomyces cerevisiae is recognized as an anhydrobiotic organism, and it has been the subject of numerous studies that aimed to elucidate this ability.

Anhydrobiosis in yeast: Stabilization by exogenous lactose
Microbiology, 2009We have found that incubation in lactose solutions (0.75 M) of yeast culture Saccharomyces cerevisiae sensitive to dehydration damage increased the stability of the cells during dehydration. Simultaneously with this increase in viability, a decrease in plasma membrane permeability during rehydration was seen.

Anhydrobiosis in nematodes: Biosynthesis of trehalose
Journal of Experimental Zoology, 1980AbstractThe pathway for the synthesis of trehalose in Aphelenchus avenae was demonstrated. As in other systems, the enzymes involved in the synthesis of trehalose of A. avenae were found to be trehalose phosphate synthetase (TPS) and trehalosephosphate phosphatase (TPP). Some of the characteristics of trehalose phosphate synthetase were studied. It was

Anhydrobiosis in Non-conventional Yeasts
2019Anhydrobiosis is a unique state of living organisms that provides the possibility of surviving conditions of extreme heat and drought with temporary and reversible suspended processes of metabolism. Beyond its ecological importance in nature, it is used for the production of viable dry microbial preparations, including active dry yeast. During the last

Cellular Water and Anhydrobiosis in Plants
Journal of Plant Growth Regulation, 2015Anhydrobiosis is a well-known phenomenon represented in a range of plant, animal and microbial taxa. It is a unique faculty of some organisms to survive in the absence of even traceable water in their cells. As water is essential for life and unequivocally important for all the biological reactions and molecular integrity of cellular components ...

Anhydrobiosis in Terrestrial Invertebrates
1995Many invertebrates adapt to physiological stress by reduced metabolism and enter a state of quiescence associated with retarded senescence (e.g. Evans and Perry 1976; Womersley 1981, 1987; Ushatinskaya 1990; Wright et al. 1992). Quiescence can be induced by different kinds of environmental stress, including extreme temperatures, dehydration, high salt ...

Anhydrobiosis in nematodes: Permeability during rehydration
Journal of Experimental Zoology, 1979Abstract1. Inorganic ions and primary amines are leaked from anhydrobiotic and quick‐dried nematodes, Aphelenchus avenae, when they are plunged from dry air into water.2. Anhydrobiotic nematodes leak about one‐third as fast as quick‐dried ones.3. When the water content is increased above about 20% by exposing the animals to moist air before immersing ...

Anhydrobiosis and reproduction in Anguina australis
Australasian Plant Pathology, 2001Survival and reproductive strategies of the leaf gall nematode, Anguina australis Steiner 1940, in annual veldt grass, Ehrharta longiflora Smith, in Western Australia were studied. The adults were found to survive anhydrobiotically over the dry summer within galls. When rehydrated and removed from the gall, about 70% of adults survived an initial cycle

Anhydrobiosis: the water replacement hypothesis
1998Both the association of amphiphiles to form phospholipid bilayers and the folding of proteins that results in their tertiary structure are profoundly influenced by the low solubility of hydrocarbons in water (e.g. Tanford, 1978). These molecular arrangements, which are thought to be entropically driven, are lost when the water in which they are formed ...
