D-Xylose Transport by Candida succiphila and Kluyveromyces marxianus

Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology, 2003
The kinetics and regulation of D-xylose uptake were investigated in the efficient pentose fermentor Candida succiphila, and in Kluyveromyces marxianus, which assimilate but do not ferment pentose sugars. Active high affinity (Km approximately 3.8 mM; Vmax approximately 15 nmol/[mg min]) and putative facilitated diffusion low-affinity (Km approximately ...

Physiological diversity within the kluyveromyces marxianus species

Antonie van Leeuwenhoek, 2011
The Kluyveromyces marxianus strains CBS 6556, CBS 397 and CBS 712T were cultivated on a defined medium with either glucose, lactose or sucrose as the sole carbon source, at 30 and 37°C. The aim of this work was to evaluate the diversity within this species, in terms of the macroscopic physiology.

Evaluation of Kluyveromyces marxianus as baker's yeast

Food Research International, 1995
Abstract Two strains of Kluyveromyces marxianus (NRRL-Y-2415 and NRRL-Y-1109) were assessed as baker's yeasts comparing them with two strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae isolated respectively from compressed yeast and active dry yeast. Strains were tested for dough proofing activity in lean dough and rich doughs (prepared with sucrose, lactose or

Sequential gene integration for the engineering of Kluyveromyces marxianus

Journal of Biotechnology, 2007
The attributes of the yeast Kluyveromyces marxianus (rapid growth rate at high temperature, utilization of a wide range of inexpensive carbon sources) make it a promising industrial host for the synthesis of protein and non-protein products. However, no stable multicopy plasmids are currently available for long-term culture of K. marxianus.

Study of acetoin reductase from Kluyveromyces marxianus

Letters in Applied Microbiology, 1993
Acetoin reductase (EC 1.1.1.4) from Kluyveromyces marxianus var. marxianus NRRL Y-1196 was found to possess the highest specific activity (3-64 units/mg protein) of the four cultures studied. The enzyme was NADH-dependent and catalysed the conversion of acetoin to 2,3-butanediol.

Production of a thermostable extracellular lipase by Kluyveromyces marxianus

Biotechnology Letters, 2003
Kluyveromyces marxianus was grown in submerged culture in a complex medium with several potential inducers of lipolytic activity (triacylglycerols, fatty acids). The highest extracellular lipolytic enzyme production (about 80 U ml(-1) in 3 d) was obtained when the medium was supplemented with 2 g urea l(-1) plus 5 g tributyrin l(-1).

Production of 2‐Phenylethyl Alcohol by Kluyveromyces marxianus

Biotechnology Progress, 1998
AbstractAmong the numerous yeasts able to produce flavor compounds, several strains of Kluyveromyces species are known for the synthesis of large amounts of aromatic compounds. In particular, the accumulation of 2‐phenylethyl alcohol in liquid cultures of Kluyveromyces marxianus was observed after incubation on a semisynthetic medium at 30 °C, 125 rpm.

Physiological and metabolic diversity in the yeast Kluyveromyces marxianus

Antonie van Leeuwenhoek, 2011
Kluyveromyces marxianus is homothallic hemiascomycete yeast frequently isolated from dairy environments. It possesses phenotypic traits such as enhanced thermotolerance, inulinase production, and rapid growth rate that distinguish it from its closest relative Kluyveromyces lactis.

Adsorption of Kluyveromyces marxianus pectinase on CM-Sephadex gels

Enzyme and Microbial Technology, 1993
New results are presented on the equilibria and kinetics of the ion exchange onto CM-Sephadex of polygalacturonase (pectinase) produced by the fermentation of Kluyveromyces marxianus. It is found that the equilibrium behavior follows the form of the Langmuir isotherm; the equilibrium is strongly affected by pH.

ผลของสติกมาสเตอรอลต่อการแช่แข็งของยีสต์ทนร้อน Kluyveromyces marxianus UBU1-11

Kluyveromyces marxianus เป็นยีสต์ทนร้อนที่มีบทบาทสำคัญ โดยเฉพาะในอุตสาหกรรม เอทานอลเนื่องจากช่วยลดค่าใช้จ่ายในการหล่อเย็นเพื่อรักษาอุณหภูมิของถังหมักและยังสามารถใช้น้ำตาล แลคโตสเป็นแหล่งคาร์บอนได้ แต่การเก็บเชื้อโดยวิธีการถ่ายเชื้อเมื่อทำเป็นประจำอาจทำให้เซลล์เกิดการเปลี่ยนแปลงพันธุกรรมได้ และการเก็บรักษาเซลล์ด้วยการแช่แข็งอาจทำให้จำนวนเซลล์รอดชีวิตต่ำ
