Oleaginous yeasts : time to rethink the definition?
Oleaginous yeasts are typically defined as those able to accumulate more than 20% of their cell dry weight as lipids or triacylglycerides. Research on these yeasts has increased lately fuelled by an interest to use biotechnology to produce lipids and ...

Oleaginicity of the yeast strain Saccharomyces cerevisiae D5A [PDF]
Background The model yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, is not known to be oleaginous. However, an industrial wild-type strain, D5A, was shown to accumulate over 20% storage lipids from glucose when growth is nitrogen-limited compared to no more than 7 ...

Genome sequence of the oleaginous yeast yarrowia lipolytica h222
Here, we report the genome sequence of the oleaginous yeast Yarrowia lipolytica H222. De novo genome assembly shows three main chromosomal rearrangements compared to that of strain E150/CLIB122.

Genome Sequence Analysis of the Oleaginous Yeast, Rhodotorula diobovata, and Comparison of the Carotenogenic and Oleaginous Pathway Genes and Gene Products with Other Oleaginous Yeasts [PDF]
Rhodotorula diobovata is an oleaginous and carotenogenic yeast, useful for diverse biotechnological applications. To understand the molecular basis of its potential applications, the genome was sequenced using the Illumina MiSeq and Ion Torrent platforms, assembled by AbySS, and annotated using the JGI annotation pipeline. The genome size, 21.1 MB, was

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).

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 ...
