Inhibitory action of antibiotics on Kluyveromyces marxianus

Revista Argentina de Microbiología
A bioassay containing Kluyveromyces marxianus in microtiter plates was used to determine the inhibitory action of 28 antibiotics (aminoglycosides, beta-lactams, macrolides, quinolones, tetracyclines and sulfonamides) against this yeast in whey. For this purpose, the dose-response curve for each antibiotic was constructed using 16 replicates of 12 ...

Snapshot of the Probiotic Potential of Kluveromyces marxianus DMKU-1042 Using a Comparative Probiogenomics Approach

Foods, 2023
Kluyveromyces marxianus is a rapidly growing thermotolerant yeast that secretes a variety of lytic enzymes, utilizes different sugars, and produces ethanol. The probiotic potential of this yeast has not been well explored.

Microencapsulation of bioactive compounds from peanut residues: stability study and application in yogurt

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Peanut skin, a byproduct of peanut processing, is a rich source of phenolic compounds (520.65 mgGAE (100 g)−1 d.b.) with strong antioxidant capacity, but which remains underutilized. The direct incorporation of phenolic extracts into dairy products is challenging, due to their instability during processing and storage and possible ...

Bioprospecting Kluyveromyces marxianus as a Robust Host for Industrial Biotechnology

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Kluyveromyces marxianusis an emerging non-conventional food-grade yeast that is generally isolated from diverse habitats, like kefir grain, fermented dairy products, sugar industry sewage, plants, and sisal leaves. A unique set of beneficial traits, such as fastest growth, thermotolerance, and broad substrate spectrum (i.e., hemi-cellulose hydrolysates,

Ethanol Production from Sugarcane Leaves by Kluyveromyces marxianus S1.17, a Genome-Shuffling Mediated Transformant

BioResources, 2017
Kluyveromyces marxianus S1.17, obtained by electroporation-mediated genome shuffling between K. marxianus G2-16-1, a cellobiase-producing yeast, and Pichia stipitis JCM 10742T, gave a maximum ethanol production level (of 0.86 g/L) from the hydrolysate of

GCN2 in proteostasis: structural logic, signalling networks and disease

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Threats to protein synthesis activate the kinase GCN2, initiating the integrated stress response (ISR). GCN2 is triggered by stalled ribosomes and uncharged tRNAs, which accumulate when amino acids are scarce. The ISR adjusts cellular physiology by promoting redox balance, protein quality control, and mitochondrial optimisation.

Gene regulation in Kluyveromyces marxianus in the context of chromosomes

PLOS ONE, 2018
Eukaryotes, including the unicellular eukaryotes such as yeasts, employ multiple levels of gene regulation. Regulation of chromatin structure through chromatin compaction cascades, and influenced by transcriptional insulators, might play a role in the coordinated regulation of genes situated at adjacent loci and expressed as a co-regulated cluster ...

Nanoshell Fabrication Techniques for Probiotic Encapsulation: A Comprehensive Review

eFood, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Probiotics, beneficial microorganisms, confer numerous health benefits when administered. However, their efficacy is hindered by harsh gut conditions, including acidity, bile acids, and enzymatic degradation. To overcome these challenges, encapsulation and nanoshell technology have emerged as a pivotal strategy to enhance probiotic stability ...
