Genome-wide screening of Saccharomyces cerevisiae genes required to foster tole...

The presence of toxic compounds derived from biomass pre-treatment in fermentation media represents an important drawback in second-generation bio-ethanol production technology and overcoming this inhibitory effect is one of the fundamental challenges to its industrial production. The aim of this study was to systematically identify, in industrial medium and at a genomic scale, the Saccharomyces cerevisiae gene...

The CgHaa1-dependent pathway mediates Candida glabrata response and tolerance t...

To successfully colonize the vaginal tract Candida glabrata has to cope with various stresses including the presence of acetic acid at a low pH that is produced by the bacteria that co-colonize this niche. The genes/pathways involved in C. glabrata tolerance and response to acetic acid are largely unknown, although these are a highly interesting set of novel targets to control vaginal infections caused by this ...

The genome sequence of the highly acetic acid-tolerant zygosaccharomyces bailii...

In this work, it is described the sequencing and annotation of the genome of the yeast strain ISA1307, isolated from a sparkling wine continuous production plant. This strain, formerly considered of the Zygosaccharomyces bailii species, has been used to study Z. bailii physiology, in particular, its extreme tolerance to acetic acid stress at low pH. The analysis of the genome sequence described in this work ind...

Genome-wide screening of Saccharomyces cerevisiae genes required to foster tole...

The understanding of the determinants of yeast tolerance to inhibitory compounds present in fermentation media at the genetic level is of essential importance for the improvement of second generation bio-ethanol conversion technology. The aim of this study was to systematically identify, at a genomic scale, the Saccharomyces cerevisiae genes required for simultaneous and maximal tolerance to key inhibitors deri...

Identification of Saccharomyces cerevisiae genes involved in the resistance to ...

Most of the current processes for bioethanol production are based on the use of Very-High-Gravity (VHG) technology and the processing of lignocellulosic biomass, limited by the high osmotic pressure and ethanol concentration in the fermentation medium, and by inhibitors resulting from biomass pre-treatments, respectively. Aiming the optimization of strains for industrial bioethanol production an integrated appr...

Quantitative proteomics (2D-DIGE) reveals molecular strategies employed by Burk...

Chronic respiratory infections caused by Burkholderia cenocepacia in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) are characterized by low responsiveness to antibiotic therapy and, in general, to a more rapid decline of lung function. To get clues into the molecular mechanisms underlying the adaptive strategies employed to deal with the stressing conditions of the CF lung including antibiotic therapy, quantitative proteo...
