(Frontiers Media, 2017)In cold environments such as polar regions, microorganisms play important ecological roles, and most of our knowledge about them comes from studies of cultivable microorganisms. Metagenomic technologies are powerful tools ...
-
(AMER SOC BIOCHEMISTRY MOLECULAR BIOLOGY INC, 2005-07-22)The aggregation of proteins into amyloid fibrils is the hallmark feature of a group of late-onset degenerative diseases including Alzheimer, Parkinson, and prion diseases. We report here that microcin E492, a peptide ...
-
(Springer Verlag, 2015)© 2015, Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg. The primary carotenoid synthesized by Xanthophyllomycesdendrorhous is astaxanthin, which is used as a feed additive in aquaculture. Cell growth kinetics and carotenoid production ...

(Springer, 2015)The primary carotenoid synthesized by Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous is astaxanthin, which is used as a feed additive in aquaculture. Cell growth kinetics and carotenoid production were correlated with the mRNA levels of ...
-
(Springer, 2015)Two dsRNAs of estimated lengths of 5 (L1) and 3.7 (L2) kpb are commonly found in strains of the basidiomycetous yeast Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous, and the presence of virus-like particles (VLPs) have been described in ...
-
(BIOMED CENTRAL LTD, 2008-10-06)Background: The yeast Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous synthesizes astaxanthin, a carotenoid with high commercial interest. The proposed biosynthetic route in this organism is isopentenylpyrophosphate (IPP) -> geranyleranyl ...
-
(BioMed Central, 2015)Background Synonymous codons are used differentially in organisms from the three domains of life, a phenomenon referred to as codon usage bias. In addition, codon pair bias, particularly in the 3’ codon context, has also ...
-
(PLOS One, 2014)The yeast Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous synthesizes the carotenoid astaxanthin, which has applications in biotechnology because of its antioxidant and pigmentation properties. However, wild-type strains produce too low ...
-
(Sociedad de Biología de Chile, 2008-05-05)The cloning and nucleotide sequence of the genes (idi, crtE, crtYB, crtI and crtS) controlling the astaxanthin biosynthesis pathway of the wild-type ATCC 24230 strain of Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous in their genomic and ...
-
(BioMed Central, 2015)Background: Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous is a basidiomycetous yeast that synthesizes astaxanthin, a carotenoid with great biotechnological impact. The ergosterol and carotenoid synthetic pathways derive from the ...
-
(WILEY-V C H VERLAG GMBH, 2008-05-16)The yeast Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous is biotechnologically important due to its ability to produce the pigment astaxanthin, but is poorly understood at the genetic level. This is mainly because its preservation is ...
-
(Public Library Science, 2015)The eukaryotic microsomal cytochrome P450 systems consist of a cytochrome P450 enzyme (P450) and a cytochrome P450 redox partner, which generally is a cytochrome P450 reductase (CPR) that supplies electrons from NADPH. ...
-
(SOC BIOLGIA CHILE, 2008)The secretion of proteinaceous toxins is a widespread characteristic in environmental and laboratory yeast isolates. a phenomenon called "killer system". The killer phenotype (K+) call be encoded by extrachromosomal genetic ...
-
(Springer, 2015)Yeasts, widely distributed across the Earth, have successfully colonized cold environments despite their adverse conditions for life. Lower eukaryotes play important ecological roles, contributing to nutrient recycling and ...
-
(BioMed Central, 2017)Background: Amylases are used in various industrial processes and a key requirement for the efficiency of these processes is the use of enzymes with high catalytic activity at ambient temperature. Unfortunately, most ...
-
(BIOMED CENTRAL, 2016)Background: Amylases and cellulases have great potential for application in industries such as food, detergent, laundry, textile, baking and biofuels. A common requirement in these fields is to reduce the temperatures of ...
-
(MICROBIOLOGICAL SOCIETY KOREA, KOREA SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY CENTER, 2010-08-22)In this study, the existence of intra-specific and inter-generic fungicidal activity in Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous and Phaffia rhodozyma strains isolated from different regions of the earth was examined. Assays were ...
-
(Public Library of Science, 2016)The red yeast X. dendrorhous is one of the few natural sources of astaxanthin, a carotenoid used in aquaculture for salmonid fish pigmentation and in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries for its antioxidant properties. ...
-
(Springer, 2016)Yeasts colonizing the Antarctic region are exposed to a high ultraviolet radiation evolving mechanisms to minimize the UV radiation damages, such as the production of UV-absorbing or antioxidant compounds like carotenoid ...
