Optimization of Fed-batch Culture Strategy for Improved Synthesis of Nisin by Lactococcus lactis HB03 [PDF]
To improve the efficiency of nisin synthesis by Lactococcus lactis HB03, the oxidative stress effect and the pattern of changes in the concentration of extracellular amino acids during the growth and fermentation of this strain were determined. Then, the

External and internal triggers of cell death in yeast [PDF]
In recent years, yeast was confirmed as a useful eukaryotic model system to decipher the complex mechanisms and networks occurring in higher eukaryotes, particularly in mammalian cells, in physiological as well in pathological conditions.

Although yeast are unicellular and comparatively simple organisms, they have a sense of time which is not related to reproduction cycles. The glycolytic pathway exhibits oscillatory behaviour, i.e. the metabolite concentrations oscillate around phosphofructokinase. The frequency of these oscillations is about 1 min when using intact cells. Also a yeast

The Significance of Lipids to Biofilm Formation in Candida albicans: An Emerging Perspective
Candida albicans, the dimorphic opportunistic human fungal pathogen, is capable of forming highly drug-resistant biofilms in the human host. Formation of biofilm is a multistep and multiregulatory process involving various adaptive mechanisms.

Biofilm-forming capability of highly virulent, multidrug-resistant Candida auris [PDF]
The emerging multidrug-resistant yeast pathogen Candida auris has attracted considerable attention as a source of healthcare–associated infections. We report that this highly virulent yeast has the capacity to form antifungal resistant biofilms sensitive

Robustness of Transcriptional Regulation in Yeast-like Model Boolean Networks [PDF]
We investigate the dynamical properties of the transcriptional regulation of gene expression in the yeast Saccharomyces Cerevisiae within the framework of a synchronously and deterministically updated Boolean network model.

Identification of a small RhoA GTPase inhibitor effective in fission yeast and human cells
The Rho GTPase family proteins are key regulators of cytoskeletal dynamics. Deregulated activity of Rho GTPases is associated with cancers and neurodegenerative diseases, and their potential as drug targets has long been recognized. Using an economically

Zinc accumulation and utilisation by wine yeasts [PDF]
The present study has focused on the accumulation of zinc by wine yeast strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae during fermentation of both grape juice and chemically defined medium with different carbohydrates and at varying levels of zinc. The results have
