Draft Genome Sequence of the Dimorphic Yeast Yarrowia lipolytica Strain W29.
Here, we present the draft genome sequence of the dimorphic ascomycete yeast Yarrowia lipolytica strain W29 (ATCC 20460). Y. lipolytica is a commonly employed model for the industrial production of lipases, small molecules, and more recently for its ability to accumulate lipids.
متن کاملThe Complete Mitochondrial Genome of Yarrowia Lipolytica
We here report the complete nucleotide sequence of the 47.9 kb mitochondrial (mt) genome from the obligate aerobic yeast Yarrowia lipolytica. It encodes, all on the same strand, seven subunits of NADH: ubiquinone oxidoreductase (ND1-6, ND4L), apocytochrome b (COB), three subunits of cytochrome oxidase (COX1, 2, 3), three subunits of ATP synthetase (ATP6, 8 and 9), small and large ribosomal RNAs...
متن کاملYarrowia lipolytica in Biotechnological Applications
The nonconventional yeast Yarrowia lipolytica has been developed as a versatile and attractive tool for a large variety of biotechnological applications. This yeast has several physiological properties with industrial significance. Y. lipolytica uses hydrophobic substrates such as n-alkanes, oils, fats, and fatty acids as low-cost carbon sources. The yeast is able to produce a set of diverse ad...
متن کاملQuantitative image analysis as a tool for Yarrowia lipolytica dimorphic growth evaluation in different culture media.
Yarrowia lipolytica, a yeast strain with a huge biotechnological potential, capable to produce metabolites such as γ-decalactone, citric acid, intracellular lipids and enzymes, possesses the ability to change its morphology in response to environmental conditions. In the present study, a quantitative image analysis (QIA) procedure was developed for the identification and quantification of Y. li...
متن کاملIsolation and characterization of YlBEM1, a gene required for cell polarization and differentiation in the dimorphic yeast Yarrowia lipolytica.
The ability to switch between a unicellular yeast form and different filamentous forms (fungal dimorphism) is an important attribute of most pathogenic fungi. Dimorphism involves a series of events that ultimately result in dramatic changes in the polarity of cell growth in response to environmental factors. We have isolated and characterized YlBEM1, a gene encoding a protein of 639 amino acids...
