Transcriptomic and metabolomic analyses reveal the positive effect of moderate concentration of sodium chloride treatment on the production of β-carotene, torulene, and torularhodin in oleaginous red yeast Rhodosporidiobolus odoratus XQR. [PDF]

Food Chem (Oxf)
Carotenoids, a family of lipid-soluble pigments, have garnered growing interest for their health-promoting benefits and are widely utilized in the food, feed, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries.

Blue LED-assisted bioreactor cultivation enhances carotenoid accumulation in Rhodotorula mucilaginosa LB-01. [PDF]

Appl Microbiol Biotechnol
Microbial production of carotenoids provides a sustainable alternative to plant-derived sources. In this study, a yeast strain, Rhodotorula mucilaginosa LB-01, was isolated and its carotenoid biosynthetic potential was evaluated.

Oleaginous yeasts for biochemicals, biofuels and food from lignocellulose‐hydrolysate and crude glycerol

Yeast, Volume 40, Issue 8, Page 290-302, August 2023., 2023
We discuss the conversion of lignocellulose hydrolysate and crude glycerol to yeast lipids, carotenoids, biosurfactants and other compounds, which can be converted to food and feed, biofuels and biochemicals. Aspects of system analysis, cultivation, lipid analysis and strain diversity are highlighted.

Endophytic yeast protect plants against metal toxicity by inhibiting plant metal uptake through an ethylene‐dependent mechanism

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 46, Issue 1, Page 268-287, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Toxic metal pollution requires significant adjustments in plant metabolism. Here, we show that the plant microbiota plays an important role in this process. The endophytic Sporobolomyces ruberrimus isolated from a serpentine population of Arabidopsis arenosa protected plants against excess metals. Coculture with its native host and Arabidopsis

Changes of Composition and Nutrition Value of Some Gluten Free (Pseudo)cereals by Addition of Carotenogenic Yeast Cell Homogenate. [PDF]

Molecules
Gluten-free cereals and pseudocereals such as oats, quinoa, and buckwheat are widely used as bases for functional foods due to their protein quality, minerals, fiber, and polyphenols. However, they contain relatively low levels of some vitamins.

Review on the Antibacterial Mechanism of Plant‐Derived Compounds against Multidrug‐Resistant Bacteria (MDR)

Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
Microbial resistance has progressed rapidly and is becoming the leading cause of death globally. The spread of antibiotic‐resistant microorganisms has been a significant threat to the successful therapy against microbial infections. Scientists have become more concerned about the possibility of a return to the pre‐antibiotic era.

Prospective Mapping of Transcriptional Changes Associated with Lipid and Carotenoid Production in <i>Rhodotorula glutinis</i> Using Different Feeding Approaches. [PDF]

Biology (Basel)
The oleaginous yeast Rhodotorula glutinis is a promising industrial host for the simultaneous production of lipids and carotenoids, yet the transcriptional regulation governing carbon flux toward these metabolites is poorly understood.
