A cadmium-transporting P1B-type ATPase in yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Detoxification and homeostatic acquisition of metal ions are vital for all living organisms. We have identified PCA1 in yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae as an overexpression suppressor of copper toxicity. PCA1 possesses signatures of a P1B-type heavy metal-transporting ATPase that is widely distributed from bacteria to humans. Copper resistance conferred by PCA1 is not dependent on catalytic acti...
متن کاملIdentification and characterization of calcium and manganese transporting ATPase (PMR1) gene of Pichia pastoris.
A gene homologous to Saccharomyces cerevisiae PMR1 has been cloned in the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris. The entire P. pastoris PMR1 gene (PpPMR1) codes a protein of 924 amino acids. Sequence analysis of the PpPMR1 cDNA and the genomic DNA revealed that there is no intron in the coding region. The putative gene product contains all of the conserved regions observed in P-type ATPases and ...

متن کاملIsolation and Identification of Yeast Strains Capable of Producing Single Cell Protein from Whey in Co-Cultures with Saccharomyces cerevisiae
In this study, twenty-five whey samples collected from dairy industries in the city of Isfahan. The sampleswere cultured on malt extract broth (MEB) and yeast extract glucose chloramphenicol agar (YGCA) media.Eleven yeast strains (designated M1 to M11) were isolated from the culture. The strains were identified bytheir morphological and physiological properties. Betagalactosid...
متن کاملCharacterization of an Interesting Novel Mutant Strain of Commercial Saccharomyces cerevisiae
The yeast strains that are resistant to high concentration of ethanol have biotechnological benefits and aresuitable models for physiology and molecular genetics research fields. A novel ethanol-tolerant mutant strain,mut1, derived from the commercial Saccharomyces cerevisiae showed higher ethanol production, and alsodemonstrated resistance to ethanol but not to other alcohols...
