Transport and hydrolysis of peptides in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The transport and hydrolysis of several radioactive di- and tripeptides in Saccharomyces cerevisiae was studied. A peptide-transport-deficient mutant isolated on the basis of its resistance to nikkomycin Z lost most of its capacity to take up di- and tripeptides. The transport kinetics of [14C]methionylglycine, [14C]methionylsarcosine and [3H]nikkomycin Z indicated that peptide transport is not dependent on intracellular hydrolysis. Intact cells had some peptidase activity towards methionylsarcosine but not towards nikkomycin Z. The relationship between this activity and peptide transport is discussed.

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...
