background and purpose: trichosporon is a genus of anamorphic basidiomycetous yeast which is widely distributed in nature and is found in tropical and temperate areas. the aim of this work was to study the isolation, identification and molecular analysis of trichosporon species in soil. materials and methods: in order to isolate and identify trichosporon species in soil, 30 samples were collect...

1. A method is described for the isolation of hexokinase from baker's yeast. The method is based mainly on fractionation with alcohol and results See PDF for Structure in a 30-fold increase in specific activity. The final product could be crystallized from ammonium sulfate without change in specific activity. 2. The enzyme catalyzes a transfer of phosphate from adenosinetriphosphate to glucose,...

Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) have been isolated from the yeast Saccharomyces. Negative stain electron microscopy of the isolated NPCs and subsequent image reconstruction revealed the octagonal symmetry and many of the ultrastructural features characteristic of vertebrate NPCs. The overall dimensions of the yeast NPC, both in its isolated form as well as in situ, are smaller than its vertebrate...

Over the last century, terrestrial yeasts have been widely used in various industries, such as baking, brewing, wine, bioethanol and pharmaceutical protein production. However, only little attention has been given to marine yeasts. Recent research showed that marine yeasts have several unique and promising features over the terrestrial yeasts, for example higher osmosis tolerance, higher specia...

has been obtained in pure form from baker 's yeast by a method based chiefly on fractional precipitation with alcohol. 1 mg. of the pure protein catalyzes the transfer of 4.2 mg. P per minute at 30 ° and pH 7.5. The reported crystallization of the protein from dilute alcohol is not readily reproducible. Crystallization from ammonium sulfate (Fig. 1) according to the procedure of Kunitz and McDo...

The fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe and the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae have, in addition to being extensively studied themselves, both been utilized for the last quarter century as experimental systems for the isolation of genes from other organisms. Mutations conferring growth defects in either of the two yeast strains have frequently been complemented by expression of cDNA...
