Yeast alcohol dehydrogenase structure and catalysis. [PDF]
Yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) alcohol dehydrogenase I (ADH1) is the constitutive enzyme that reduces acetaldehyde to ethanol during the fermentation of glucose. ADH1 is a homotetramer of subunits with 347 amino acid residues.

Cytosolic re-localization and optimization of valine synthesis and catabolism enables inseased isobutanol production with the yeast
Background The branched chain alcohol isobutanol exhibits superior physicochemical properties as an alternative biofuel. The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae naturally produces low amounts of isobutanol as a by-product during fermentations, resulting from ...

Protein thermal stability in the undergraduate biochemistry laboratory: Exploring protein thermal stability with yeast alcohol dehydrogenase. [PDF]
Abstract We created a novel laboratory experience where undergraduate students explore the techniques used to study protein misfolding, unfolding, and aggregation. Despite the importance of protein misfolding and aggregation diseases, protein unfolding is not typically explored in undergraduate biochemistry laboratory classes.

The primary structure of yeast alcohol dehydrogenase. [PDF]
Eight different types of peptide mixtures from [14C]carboxymethylated yeast alcohol dehydrogenase were obtained using trypsin with or without prior maleylation of the substrate, chymotrypsin, pepsin, microbial proteases or CNBr. Each mixture was fractionated by exclusion chromatography and peptides were further purified on paper.

High-Throughput Screening of Industrial Brewing Yeast with Lower Synthetic Level of Acetaldehyde During Beer Production [PDF]
The high level of acetaldehyde produced by yeast is a significant concern for all enterprises of beer production. To obtain industrial beer yeast strains with low ability to produce acetaldehyde, a multi-step screening strategy was established, using ...

Aromatic aldehydes as substrates for yeast and yeast alcohol dehydrogenase. [PDF]
We have investigated the conversion of aromatic aldehydes to L-acetyl aromatic carbinols and aromatic alcohols by Saccharomyces cerevisiae and also the conversion of aldehyde to corresponding alcohol by yeast alcohol ...

The two major isozymes of yeast alcohol dehydrogenase. [PDF]
The structures of the two cytoplasmic isozymes of alcohol dehydrogenase in a haploid strain of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae have been compared and related to a commercial preparation of the protein that was previously analyzed. The constitutive isozyme I (purified from a petite cell incapable of mitochondrial respiration) is found to correspond ...
