Isolation and Characterization of Oleaginous Yeast
International Journal of Current Microbiology and Applied Sciences, 2023 Oleaginous yeast are known to synthesize and accumulate large amount of intracellular triacylglycerol. Hence, they are considered to be one of the most promising alternate sources for oil production. In this regard, the present study was undertaken to isolate, characterize and screen oleaginous yeast for biomass and lipid production.

Oleaginous yeast as a component in fish feed [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2018 AbstractThis study investigates the replacement of vegetable oil (VO) in aquaculture feed for Arctic char (Salvelinus alpinus) with oil produced by the oleaginous yeast Lipomyces starkeyi grown in lignocellulose (wheat straw) hydrolysate. VO is extensively used to partially replace fish oil in aquaculture feed, which can be seen as non-sustainable.

Fatty alcohols production by oleaginous yeast [PDF]
Journal of Industrial Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2015 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.

Identification of oleaginous yeasts that metabolize aromatic compounds [PDF]
Journal of Industrial Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2020 Abstract The valorization of lignin is critical for the economic viability of the bioeconomy. Microbial metabolism is advantageous for handling the myriad of aromatic compounds resulting from lignin chemical or enzymatic depolymerization.

Biotransformation of volatile fatty acids by oleaginous and non-oleaginous yeast species [PDF]
FEMS Yeast Research, 2015 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)

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 ...

Lipid Turnover in Oleaginous Yeasts [PDF]
Microbiology, 1988 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.
