The cell wall of the oleaginous yeast Trichosporon cutaneum [PDF]
Journal of General Microbiology, 1993 The cell wall of Trichosporon cutaneum consists of 11% protein, 63% neutral carbohydrate, 9% glucosamine and 13% glucuronic acid. The sugars include glucose (32%), mannose (6%) and traces of xylose and galactose. The cell wall was fractionated with alkali to yield a mixture of alkali-soluble matrix components, and an alkali-insoluble glucan associated ...

Engineering of Saccharomyces cerevisiae for the accumulation of high amounts of triacylglycerol
Microbial Cell Factories, 2021 Background Fatty acid-based substances play an important role in many products, from food supplements to pharmaceutical products and biofuels. The production of fatty acids, mainly in their esterified form as triacylglycerol (TAG), has been intensively ...

Ethylene glycol metabolism in the oleaginous yeast Rhodotorula toruloides. [PDF]
Appl Microbiol BiotechnolAbstract The agro-food chain produces an impressive amount of waste, which includes not only lignocellulosic biomass, but also plastic, used for both protective films and packaging. Thanks to advances in enzymatic hydrolysis, it is now possible to imagine an upcycling that valorizes each ...

Enhanced pyruvic acid yield in an osmotic stress-resistant mutant of Yarrowia lipolytica
Electronic Journal of Biotechnology, 2020 Background: Pyruvic acid (PA), a vital α-oxocarboxylic acid, plays an important role in energy and carbon metabolism. The oleaginous yeast Yarrowia lipolytica (Y. lipolytica) has considerable potential for the production of PA.

Enhanced Triacylglycerol Production With Genetically Modified Trichosporon oleaginosus
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018 Mitochondrial pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) is important in the production of lipids in oleaginous yeast, but other yeast may bypass the mitochondria (PDH bypass), converting pyruvate in the cytosol to acetaldehyde, then acetate and acetyl CoA which is ...

A Comparative Study of Citrate Efflux from Mitochondria of Oleaginous and Non‐oleaginous Yeasts [PDF]
European Journal of Biochemistry, 1983 Citrate efflux from mitochondria of 10 different yeasts was investigated. Isolated mitochondria of all the yeasts show the possession of a carrier system for dicarboxylic and tricarboxylic anions, phosphate and pyruvate. The tricarboxylate carrier is also specific for l‐malate in all 10 yeasts.

CRISPR-Cas12a/Cpf1-assisted precise, efficient and multiplexed genome-editing in Yarrowia lipolytica
Metabolic Engineering Communications, 2020 CRISPR-Cas9 has been widely adopted as the basic toolkit for precise genome-editing and engineering in various organisms. Alternative to Cas9, Cas12 or Cpf1 uses a simple crRNA as a guide and expands the protospacer adjacent motif (PAM) sequence to TTTN.
