Production of Galacto-Oligosaccharides Using Kluyveromyces Yeast
Galacto-oligosaccharides are known for their prebiotic activity. They are obtained from lactose using bacterial or fungal betagalactosidases. This article describes the factors that affect the biosynthesis and purification of galacto-oligosaccharides ...

Characterization of lactose transport in Kluyveromyces lactis [PDF]
We have determined that lactose uptake in Kluyveromyces lactis is mediated by an inducible transport system. Induction, elicited by lactose or galactose, of the transporter required protein synthesis. Transport of lactose required an energy-generating system and occurred by an active process, since an intracellular lactose concentration 175 times ...

ABSTRACT Isobutanol is a fusel alcohol that can be produced microbially for use as a biofuel or upgraded into sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). A key enzyme in the isobutanol biosynthetic pathway is 2‐ketoacid decarboxylase (KDC), which irreversibly decarboxylates 2‐ketoisovalerate (KIV) to yield isobutyraldehyde.

Current status ofKluyveromycessystematics [PDF]
A brief outline of the current taxonomic status of the genus Kluyveromyces is presented. Noteworthy are the transfer of several former Kluyveromyces species to other genera, the retention of the name Kluyveromyces for K. lactis, K. marxianus, and four related species, and some recent attempts to clarify the variety status of strains assigned to K ...

Probiotic fermentation of soybeans and use of fermented soy in cookies
Abstract BACKGROUND With increasing prevalence of mental health issues such as insomnia and anxiety, γ‐aminobutyric acid (GABA) has gained attention for its neurological benefits. The development of GABA‐rich functional foods has emerged as a promising research direction. Soybeans, rich in glutamate, are excellent substrates for GABA biosynthesis using

Abstract Co‐fermentation of hexoses and pentoses from plant biomass to ethanol is a strategy to increase ethanol production from lignocellulosic materials and add value to residues from agroindustrial chains. The macauba (Acrocomia aculeata) is an oleaginous palm‐tree species considered to contribute to development in some regions of Brazil.

ABSTRACT In this study, a bacterium (NEIST_PMIB_06) was isolated from Hawaijar, a fermented soy food from Manipur, Northeast India. The bacterium was inoculated and incubated to isolate bioactive compounds. Liquid‐liquid extraction was performed to obtain extracts (cell‐free and cell‐based), and their efficacy was evaluated.

Ribosomal RNA Genes in Kluyveromyces marxianus [PDF]
DNA from the yeast Kluyveromyces marxianus was studied for its heterogeneity and the multiplicity of rRNA cistrons. These cistrons banded at a slightly different density from the bulk DNA in preparative CsCl or Hg2+-Cs2SO4 equilibrium density gradients.
