Novel cysteine-centered sulfur metabolic pathway in the thermotolerant methylotrophic yeast Hansenula polymorpha. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
In yeast and filamentous fungi, sulfide can be condensed either with O-acetylhomoserine to generate homocysteine, the precursor of methionine, or with O-acetylserine to directly generate cysteine.

Vendor Hygiene Practices, Temporal Variation, and Microbial Quality of Soya Kebabs Sold in Public and Private Basic Schools in Sunyani, Ghana

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
This study evaluated microbial contamination and vendor hygiene practices associated with soya kebabs sold in public and private basic schools in Sunyani Municipality, Ghana. Significant increases in bacterial contamination were observed throughout the school week, with poor hygiene practices strongly associated with elevated contamination levels ...

Quality Characteristics of Processed Opuntia ficus‐indica Using Selected Drying Techniques

Journal of Food Science, Volume 91, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to develop and characterize the technological, physical, nutritional, and bioactive properties of cactus cladode flour (Opuntia ficus‐indica L.) obtained through freeze‐drying (OP‐FD) and air circulation oven drying (OP‐AC). The flours exhibited low water activity (OP‐AC: 0.410; OP‐FD: 0.501), moisture content (OP‐AC: 5.8 g ...

An Arabidopsis Heat Shock Protein Complements a Thermotolerance Defect in Yeast [PDF]

The Plant Cell, 1994
The heat shock protein Hsp104 of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae plays a key role in promoting survival at extreme temperatures. We found that when diverse higher plant species are exposed to high temperatures they accumulate proteins that are antigenically related to Hsp104. We isolated a cDNA corresponding to one of these proteins from Arabidopsis.

Optimization of process parameters for cellulase production by novel thermotolerant yeast [PDF]

BioResources, 2012
The goal of the present study was to investigate production of cellulase in low cost medium by thermotolerant yeast. After screening, an efficient yeast isolate having capability of C1 (exo-gluconase) and Cx (endo-gluconase) production was isolated and ...

Evidence for divergent evolution of growth temperature preference in sympatric Saccharomyces species. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
The genus Saccharomyces currently includes eight species in addition to the model yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, most of which can be consistently isolated from tree bark and soil.

Climate Change Projected to Double the Richness and Abundance of Soilborne Phytopathogenic Fungi in Southern Maritime Antarctica

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 5, May 2026.
We sequenced fungal DNA in barren soils sampled from 12 sites along a 1900‐km transect through sub‐ and Maritime Antarctica and Patagonia. Using LASSO regression, we found air temperature ‐ and notably mean annual air temperature (BIO1) ‐ to be a highly significant predictor for the richness and relative abundance of soilborne plant pathogens.

Biowaste Composting as a Sustainable Platform for Bacterial CO Production: Evidence From cooS Gene Expression and Microbial Community Profiling

GCB Bioenergy, Volume 18, Issue 5, May 2026.
This study demonstrates, for the first time, the expression of the cooS gene during composting, confirming microbial CO production under mesophilic conditions. The results highlight composting as a novel waste‐to‐biochemicals process, offering a sustainable, low‐carbon pathway for generating carbon monoxide via bacterial CO dehydrogenase activity ...
