    • Polymorphism of viral dsRNA in Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous strains isolated from different geographic areas 
      Baeza Cancino, Marcelo; Sanhueza, Mario; Flores, Oriana; Oviedo, Vicente; Libkind, Diego; Cifuentes Guzmán, Víctor (2009)
      Background. Strains of the astaxanthin producing yeast Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous have been isolated from different cold regions around the earth, and the presence of double stranded RNA (dsRNA) elements was described ...
    • Presence of double-stranded RNA and virus-like particles in Phaffia rhodozyma 
      Castillo, Antonio; Cifuentes Guzmán, Víctor (Springer-Verlag, 1994)
      Four double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) molecules were isolated from Phaffia rhodozyma UCD 67-385. Their molecular sizes were approximately 4.3, 3.1, 0.9 and 0.75 kilobase pairs (kbp) as determined by agarose-gel electrophoresis ...
    • Proteomic analysis of the carotenogenic yeast Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous 
      Martínez Moya, Pilar; Watt, Steven Alexander; Niehaus, Karsten; Alcaíno Gorman, Jennifer; Baeza Cancino, Marcelo; Cifuentes Guzmán, Víctor (2011)
      Background: The yeast Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous is used for the microbiological production of the antioxidant carotenoid astaxanthin. In this study, we established an optimal protocol for protein extraction and performed ...
    • Regulation of carotenogenesis in the red yeast Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous: the role of the transcriptional ... 
      Córdova, Pamela; Alcaíno Gorman, Jennifer; Urrutia Bravo, Natalia Agnetta; Barahona, Salvador; Sepúlveda, Dionisia; Fernández Lobato, María; Baeza Cancino, Marcelo; Cifuentes Guzmán, Víctor (Biomed Central, 2016)
      Background: The yeast Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous produces carotenoids of commercial interest, including astaxanthin and beta-carotene. Although carotenogenesis in this yeast and the expression profiles of the genes ...
    • Sterol regulatory element-binding protein Sre1 regulates carotenogenesis in the red yeast Xanthophyllomyces ... 
      Gómez, Melissa; Salinas Campusano, Sebastián Alejandro; Gutiérrez, María Soledad; Sepúlveda, Dionisia; Barahona, Salvador; Baeza Cancino, Marcelo; Cifuentes Guzmán, Víctor; Alcaíno Gorman, Jennifer (Amer Soc Biochemistry Molecular Biology, 2020)
      Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous is a basidiomycete yeast that produces carotenoids, mainly astaxanthin. Astaxanthin is an organic pigment of commercial interest due to its antioxidant and coloring properties. X. dendrorhous ...
    • Study of the expression of carotenoid biosynthesis genes in wild-type and deregulated strains of xanthophyllomyces ... 
      Lodato, Patricia; Alcaíno Gorman, Jennifer; Barahona, Salvador; Retamales, Patricio; Jiménez, Antonio; Cifuentes Guzmán, Víctor (Society of Biology of Chile, 2004)
      The expression, at the mRNA level, of carotenoid biosynthetic genes from Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous was studied by RT-PCR. The experimental conditions for the RT-PCR assay were standardized to quantify the relative ...
