A novel aminotransferase gene and its regulator acquired in Saccharomyces by a horizontal gene transfer event

open access: yesBMC Biology, 2023
Background Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) is an evolutionary mechanism of adaptive importance, which has been deeply studied in wine S. cerevisiae strains, where those acquired genes conferred improved traits related to both transport and metabolism of ...

Comparative genomics of infective Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains reveals their food origin

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Fungal infections are less studied than viral or bacterial infections and often more difficult to treat. Saccharomyces cerevisiae is usually identified as an innocuous human-friendly yeast; however, this yeast can be responsible for infections mainly in ...

Understanding the role of GRE3 in the erythritol biosynthesis pathway in Saccharomyces uvarum and its implication in osmoregulation and redox homeostasis

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, 2023
Erythritol is produced in yeasts via the reduction of erythrose into erythritol by erythrose reductases (ERs). However, the genes codifying for the ERs involved in this reaction have not been described in any Saccharomyces species yet. In our laboratory,
