The Stability

Levan has wide applications in chemical, cosmetic, pharmaceutical and food industries. The free levansucrase is usually used in the biosynthesis of levan, but the poor reusability and low stability of free levansucrase have limited its large-scale use. To address this problem, the surface-displayed levansucrase in Saccharomyces cerevisiae were generated and evaluated in this study. The levansucrase from Zymomonas mobilis was displayed on the cell surface of Saccharomyces cerevisiae EBY100 using a various yeast surface display platform. The N-terminal fusion partner is based on a-agglutinin, and the C-terminal one is Flo1p. The yield of levan produced by these two whole-cell biocatalysts reaches 26 g/L and 34 g/L in 24 h, respectively. Meanwhile, the stability of the surface-displayed levansucrases is significantly enhanced. After six reuses, these two biocatalysts retained over 50% and 60% of their initial activities, respectively. Furthermore, the molecular weight and polydispersity test of the products suggested that the whole-cell biocatalyst of levansucrase displayed by Flo1p has more potentials in the production of levan with low molecular weight which is critical in certain applications. In conclusion, our method not only enable the possibility to reuse the enzyme, but also improves the stability of the enzyme.

RNA aptamers are becoming increasingly attractive due to their superior properties. This review discusses the early stages of aptamer research, the main developments in this area, and the latest technologies being developed. The review also highlights the advantages of RNA aptamers in comparison to antibodies, considering the great potential of RNA aptamers and their applications in the near future. In addition, it is shown how RNA aptamers can form endless 3-D structures, giving rise to various structural and functional possibilities. Special attention is paid to the Mango, Spinach and Broccoli fluorescent RNA aptamers, and the advantages of split RNA aptamers are discussed. The review focuses on the importance of creating a platform for the synthesis of RNA nanoparticles in vivo and examines yeast, namely Saccharomyces cerevisiae, as a potential model organism for the production of RNA nanoparticles on a large scale.

In recent months a bumper crop of genomes has been completed, including the fission yeast (Schizosaccharomyces pombe) and rice (Oryza sativa). Two large-scale studies ofSaccharomyces cerevisiaeprotein complexes provided a picture of the eukaryotic proteome as a network of complexes. Amongst the other stories of interest was a demonstration that proteomic analysis of blood samples can be used to detect ovarian cancer, perhaps even as early as stage I.

Logarithmic Growth

The effects of culture supernatant treatment on subsequent matings between pretreated a and alpha Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells were studied. For each experiment, pairs of a and alpha [rho+] or [rho- rho0] cells in the logarithmic growth phase in defined minimal medium were pretreated for a total of 15 min (by exchanging their cell-free supernatants or by mixing samples of a and alpha cell cultures) and then mated in defined minimal (YNB) or enriched (YEP) liquid medium. All pretreated cells, regardless of treatment procedure, initiated cell fusion 15 to 35 min faster than did their nontreated counterparts. In all cases, pretreated cells mated 8 to 20% more efficiently than did nonpretreated ones. Regardless of the strains, the hierarchy of mating efficiency was always treated YEP greater than untreated YEP greater than treated YNB greater than untreated YNB. The cell fusion kinetics in alpha [rho+] X a [rho-] crosses were most affected by pretreatment (delta 30 to 35 min), whereas [rho+] X [rho+] crosses were least affected (delta 15 min). These results are discussed in relation to the functions known for a and alpha pheromones. The successful pretreatment regimes were used to design new rapid and efficient techniques for mating YNB-grown log-phase cells in either YNB or YEP liquid media. These techniques can be used for small- or large-scale mating, and because of their inherent media flexibility, they have many potential applications to future studies on mating-specific or intrazygotic phenomena.
