Selection of oleaginous yeasts for fatty acid production. [PDF]
BMC Biotechnol, 2016 Oleaginous yeast species are an alternative for the production of lipids or triacylglycerides (TAGs). These yeasts are usually non-pathogenic and able to store TAGs ranging from 20 % to 70 % of their cell mass depending on culture conditions. TAGs originating from oleaginous yeasts can be used as the so-called second generation biofuels, which are ...

Cocoa butter-like lipid production ability of non-oleaginous and oleaginous yeasts under nitrogen-limited culture conditions. [PDF]
Appl Microbiol Biotechnol, 2017 Cocoa butter (CB) extracted from cocoa beans is the main raw material for chocolate production. However, growing chocolate demands and limited CB production has resulted in a shortage of CB supply.

Lipid and carotenoid production from wheat straw hydrolysates by different oleaginous yeasts
Journal of Cleaner Production, 2020 This work aimed to support the development of a new process for the production of lipids and carotenoids by oleaginous yeasts using both cellulosic and hemicellulosic fractions of biomass as feedstock for fermentation.

Engineering triacylglycerol production from sugars in oleaginous yeasts.
Current Opinion in Biotechnology, 2020 Oleaginous yeasts natively produce surplus triacylglycerol lipid and can be engineered for higher yield and productivity. Most enzymatic steps of triacylglycerol production are characterized, but key parts of the pathway remain unknown.

Unlocking circular bioeconomy potential of termite-gut yeasts: dual bioremediation and biodiesel production [PDF]
Frontiers in Bioengineering and BiotechnologyLignin-derived aromatics and synthetic azo dyes are among the most persistent and toxic pollutants released by textile processing, petrochemical industries, pulp-and-paper manufacturing, and agricultural waste streams.

Annals of Microbiology, 2020 Purpose Oleaginous yeasts can accumulate intracellular lipid bodies or triacylglycerides (TAGs) under nutrient limiting conditions. TAGs derived from those yeast strains are considered as an alternative to conventional plant-based oils for biodiesel ...

In Vivo Online Monitoring of Intracellular Lipid Accumulation in Ustilago maydis [PDF]
Engineering in Life SciencesSingle cell oils produced in microorganisms constitute appealing alternatives to plant oils. Oleaginous fungi accumulate triacylglycerols in lipid droplets (LD). Their biosynthesis is typically induced under nitrogen limitation.
