Yeast Particles for Encapsulation of Terpenes and Essential Oils [PDF]
Terpenes and essential oils are materials of great commercial use due to their broad spectra of antibacterial, antifungal, membrane permeation enhancement and antioxidant biological properties, as well as for their use as flavors and fragrances.

Yeast and Virus-like Particles: A Perfect or Imperfect Couple? [PDF]
Virus-like particles (VLPs) comprise viral structural proteins that self-assemble to form a particle similar to the native virus capsid. Since their discovery, they have been employed mainly as vaccines to prevent viral infection because they can elicit ...

Anthelmintic Activity of Yeast Particle-Encapsulated Terpenes [PDF]
Soil-transmitted nematodes (STN) infect 1–2 billion of the poorest people worldwide. Only benzimidazoles are currently used in mass drug administration, with many instances of reduced activity. Terpenes are a class of compounds with anthelmintic activity.

Bioaccessibility of curcumin encapsulated in yeast cells and yeast cell wall particles
This study evaluates the role of intracellular composition and integrity of cell walls in modulating the release and bioaccessibility of phytochemicals during simulated gastrointestinal digestion of cell-based carriers. Native yeast and yeast cell wall particles (YCWPs) were used as model cell-based carriers with distinct intracellular composition and ...

Localization of ASH1 mRNA Particles in Living Yeast [PDF]
ASH1 mRNA localizes to the bud tip in Saccharomyces cerevisiae to establish asymmetry of HO expression, important for mating type switching. To visualize real time localization of the mRNA in living yeast cells, green fluorescent protein (GFP) was fused to the RNA-binding protein MS2 to follow a reporter mRNA containing MS2-binding sites. Formation and

Association of snR190 snoRNA chaperone with early pre-60S particles is regulated by the RNA helicase Dbp7 in yeast [PDF]
The molecular events underlying the assembly and maturation of the early pre-60S particles during eukaryotic ribosome synthesis are not well understood. Here, the authors combine yeast genetics and biochemical experiments to characterise the functions of

Biochemical and physiological studies of the yeast virus-like particle [PDF]
A study was made of the virus-like particle (VLP) of Saccharomyces cerevisiae S7. This strain contains elevated amounts of P1 double-stranded ribonucleic acid (dsRNA) but no P2 dsRNA. The amount of dsRNA contained in cells grown on a fermentable carbon source (glucose) was compared with that in cells grown on a nonfermentable carbon source (ethanol ...
