Production and Effect of Killer Toxin by Saccharomyces Cerevisiae on Sensitive Yeast and Fungal Pathogens
نویسندگان
چکیده
Killer toxins are the proteinaceous toxins produced by some group of yeast designatedKiller yeasts. These toxins have activity against microorganisms other than yeast and the activity is readily detectable only when a suitable sensitive strain is tested. The aim of this study was extract the Killer toxin from yeast cells, to purify by thin layer chromatography and to find out the action of killer toxin on different fungal pathogens.

The effect of yeast culture (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) supplementation on laying hen diets was tested against flavomycin supplementation during 12 weeks, using 112 Brown Bovans laying hens, 52 week-old, divided into 7 equal groups fed on a basal diet containing 18.8% crude protein and 2810 kcal/kg ME (metabolizable energy) feed. Three groups were supplemented with 3 different levels of commerci...

The purpose of this work was to study the effect of initial pH and yeast Saccharomyces Cerevisiae on biogas production from tofu wastewater (TW). The initial pH was varied in ranging of 5 – 9 in substrate without yeast (T5-T9) and with yeast (TY5-TY9). The results showed that optimum initial pH was 8. The maximum biogas was resulted in T8 (275 mL) and TY8 (421 mL). Yeast addition increased tota...

متن کاملProduction of fluorescent and cytotoxic K28 killer toxin variants through high cell density fermentation of recombinant Pichia pastoris
BACKGROUND Virus infected killer strains of the baker's yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae secrete protein toxins such as K28, K1, K2 and Klus which are lethal to sensitive yeast strains of the same or related species. K28 is somewhat unique as it represents an α/β heterodimeric protein of the A/B toxin family which, after having bound to the surface of sensitive target cells, is taken up by recept...
