Intron-encoded endonuclease I-Sce I is a homing endonuclease.The enzyme is used in biotechnology as a meganuclease.It recognises an 18-base pair sequence TAGGGATAACAGGGTAAT and leaves a 4 base pair 3' hydroxyl overhang.
ERG4 or Delta(24(24(1)))-sterol reductase or Delta(24(28))-sterol reductase is an enzyme that catalyzes the last step of ergosterol biosynthesis pathway in fungi Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Baker's yeast), which 5,7,22,24(28)-ergostatetraenol converted into ergosterol.
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (/ ˌ s ɛr ə ˈ v ɪ s i. iː /) (brewer's yeast or baker's yeast) is a species of yeast (single-celled fungal microorganisms). The species has been instrumental in winemaking, baking, and brewing since ancient times.
Anti-Saccharomyces cerevisiae antibodies (ASCAs) are antibodies against antigens presented by the cell wall of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. These antibodies are directed against oligomannose sequences α-1,3 Man (α-1,2 Man α-1,2 Man) n (n = 1 or 2). [ 1 ]
The Crabtree effect, named after the English biochemist Herbert Grace Crabtree, [1] describes the phenomenon whereby the yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, produces ethanol (alcohol) in aerobic conditions at high external glucose concentrations rather than producing biomass via the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, the usual process occurring aerobically in most yeasts e.g. Kluyveromyces spp. [2 ...
Cytochrome P450-DIT2 or CYP56A1 is one of the only three P450 enzyme found in fungi baker's yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae), the other two are CYP51F1(ERG11) and CYP61A1(ERG5) in the ergosterol biosynthesis pathway. [1] CYP56A1 thought to catalyze the oxidation of tyrosine residues in the formation of L,L-dityrosine, a precursor of the spore ...
Symptoms include “sensitivity to light, dizziness, pain behind the eyes, nausea, vomiting, and rash,” the CDC says, while more serious disease includes meningitis, encephalitis, and bleeding.
The Mad2 gene was first identified in the yeast S. cerevisiae in a screen for genes which when mutated would confer sensitivity to microtubule poisons. [1] The human orthologues of Mad2 ( MAD2L1 and MAD2L2 ) were first cloned in a search for human cDNAs that would rescue the microtubule poison-sensitivity of a yeast strain in which a ...
