Draft Genome Sequencing of the Highly Halotolerant and Allopolyploid Yeast Zygosaccharomyces rouxii NBRC 1876

چکیده
The highly halotolerant and allopolyploid yeast Zygosaccharomyces rouxii is industrially used for the food production in high concentrations of salt, such as brewing soy sauce and miso paste. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of Z. rouxii NBRC 1876 isolated from miso paste.

Recent allopolyploid origin of Zygosaccharomyces rouxii strain ATCC 42981.
Zygosaccharomyces rouxii strain ATCC 42981 has been reported to have two copies of several genes including HOG1 and SOD2, whereas the type strain of Z. rouxii (CBS 732) has only one. To investigate the structure of the ATCC 42981 genome we sequenced random fragments from this genome and compared the data to the type strain. We found that ATCC 42981 contains two versions of the ribosomal RNA arr...
متن کاملDiversity of Mating-Type Chromosome Structures in the Yeast Zygosaccharomyces rouxii Caused by Ectopic Exchanges between MAT-Like Loci
We investigated sex chromosome diversity in Zygosaccharomyces rouxii (Z. rouxii). In the current study, we show that the organization of the mating-type (MAT) locus is highly variable in the Z. rouxii population, indicating the MAT, HML, and HMR loci are translocation hotspots. Although NBRC1130 and CBS732 were originally two stocks of the type strain of the species, only NBRC1130 retains the o...
متن کاملConstruction of High Ethanol Fermenting Halotolerant Hybrid by Intergeneric Protoplast Fusion of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Zygosaccharomyces rouxii
Saccharomyces cerevisiae M30, a high ethanol producing flocculent strain, was hybridized with Zygosaccharomyces rouxii TISTR1750, a halotolerant non-flocculent strain, by polyethylene glycol induced protoplast fusion. The protoplast fusion of these two yeast genera occurred with frequency of 5.89X10-5. Three fusants, namely RM11, RM37 and RM58, were selected based on their high ethanol fermenta...
متن کاملDraft Genome Sequences of the Xylose-Fermenting Yeast Scheffersomyces shehatae NBRC 1983T and a Thermotolerant Isolate of S. shehatae ATY839 (JCM 18690)
Draft genome sequences of the type strain (NBRC 1983) and a thermotolerant isolate (ATY839) of the xylose-fermenting yeast Scheffersomyces shehatae were determined. The genome sizes and presumed open reading frames were highly similar between strains NBRC 1983T and ATY839.
متن کاملSecretion of Aspergillus oryzae alkaline protease in an osmophilic yeast, Zygosaccharomyces rouxii.
To produce Aspergillus oryzae alkaline protease (Alp) in an osmophilic yeast Zygosaccharomyces rouxii, we constructed an expression plasmid consisting of the Z. rouxii glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) promoter, the prepro-Alp cDNA of A. oryzae, the whole sequence of Z. rouxii plasmid pSR1, and the G418 resistant gene. The resulting plasmid, when introduced into Z. rouxii cells, ...
