Carnitine acetyltransferase activity in oleaginous yeasts [PDF]
The highest activities of carnitine acetyltransferase (CAT) were found in non-oleaginous yeasts (Candida utilis and Saccharomyces cerevisiae); lower activities, ranging from 50% down to 3% of the highest values, were found in various strains of oleaginous yeasts (Candida curvata, Lipomyces starkeyi, Rhodosporidium toruloides and Trichosporon cutaneum).

Comparative proteomics profile of lipid-cumulating oleaginous yeast: an iTRAQ-coupled 2-D LC-MS/MS analysis. [PDF]
Accumulation of intracellular lipid in oleaginous yeast cells has been studied for providing an alternative supply for energy, biofuel. Numerous studies have been conducted on increasing lipid content in oleaginous yeasts.

Oleaginous yeasts from Ethiopia [PDF]
Oleaginous microorganisms can produce high amounts of oil (>20 % of their biomass) under suitable cultivation conditions. In this research work 200 samples were collected from soil, plant surfaces (leaves, flowers and fruits), waste oils from traditional oil milling houses and dairy products (cheese, milk and yoghurt) in Ethiopia.

Statistical Approach for Production of Lipid from a Newly-isolated Wickerhamomyces Siamensis SAKSG Strain from Trout Fish [PDF]
Introduction: Oleaginous yeasts could produce lipid with high contents of poly unsaturated fatty acids (PUFA). Isolation of oleaginous species with a strong ability to produce lipid and long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid (LCPUFA) could be considered ...

Fatty alcohols production by oleaginous yeast [PDF]
Abstract We have engineered Rhodosporidium toruloides to produce fatty alcohols by expressing a fatty acyl-CoA reductase from Marinobacter aquaeolei VT8. Production of fatty alcohols in flasks was achieved in different fermentation media at titers ranging from 0.2 to 2 g/L.

Biotransformation of volatile fatty acids by oleaginous and non-oleaginous yeast species [PDF]
The possibility of utilizing volatile fatty acids (VFA)-containing waste substrates from biotechnological and industrial processes was investigated by cultivating both oleaginous (Candida sp., Rhodotorula glutinis, Trichosporon cutaneum, Yarrowia lipolytica) and non-oleaginous (Kluyveromyces polysporus, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Torulaspora delbrueckii)

Oleaginous Red Yeasts: Concomitant Producers of Triacylglycerides and Carotenoids
Oleaginous red yeast species are colourful (usually having orange-pink-red hues) single cell microorganisms capable of producing valuable bioproducts including triacylglycerides (TAGs) for biodiesel and carotenoids for nutraceuticals.

Lipid Turnover in Oleaginous Yeasts [PDF]
SUMMARY: When eight strains of the oleaginous yeasts Candida curvata, Lipomyces starkeyi, Rhodosporidium toruloides and Trichosporon cutaneum were starved of carbon after having accumulated lipid up to 34% of their biomass, the lipid was readily converted to new biomass in all cases except the two strains of L. starkeyi. When C.
