Whole-Genome Sequence of an Isogenic Haploid Strain, Saccharomyces cerevisiae IR-2idA30(MATa), Established from the Industrial Diploid Strain IR-2.

ABSTRACT: We present the draft genome sequence of an isogenic haploid strain, IR-2idA30(MAT a), established from Saccharomyces cerevisiae IR-2. Assembly of long reads and previously obtained contigs from the genome of diploid IR-2 resulted in 50 contigs, and the variations and sequencing errors were corrected by short reads.

Project description:BackgroundThe cost-effective production of second-generation bioethanol, which is made from lignocellulosic materials, has to face the following two problems: co-fermenting xylose with glucose and enhancing the strain's tolerance to lignocellulosic inhibitors. Based on our previous study, the wild-type diploid Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain BSIF with robustness and good xylose metabolism genetic background was used as a chassis for constructing efficient xylose-fermenting industrial strains. The performance of the resulting strains in the fermentation of media with sugars and hydrolysates was investigated.ResultsThe following two novel heterologous genes were integrated into the genome of the chassis cell: the mutant MGT05196N360F, which encodes a xylose-specific, glucose-insensitive transporter and is derived from the Meyerozyma guilliermondii transporter gene MGT05196, and Ru-xylA (where Ru represents the rumen), which encodes a xylose isomerase (XI) with higher activity in S. cerevisiae. Additionally, endogenous modifications were also performed, including the overproduction of the xylulokinase Xks1p and the non-oxidative PPP (pentose phosphate pathway), and the inactivation of the aldose reductase Gre3p and the alkaline phosphatase Pho13p. These rationally designed genetic modifications, combined with alternating adaptive evolutions in xylose and SECS liquor (the leach liquor of steam-exploding corn stover), resulted in a final strain, LF1, with excellent xylose fermentation and enhanced inhibitor resistance. The specific xylose consumption rate of LF1 reached as high as 1.089 g g-1 h-1 with xylose as the sole carbon source. Moreover, its highly synchronized utilization of xylose and glucose was particularly significant; 77.6% of xylose was consumed along with glucose within 12 h, and the ethanol yield was 0.475 g g-1, which is more than 93% of the theoretical yield. Additionally, LF1 performed well in fermentations with two different lignocellulosic hydrolysates.ConclusionThe strain LF1 co-ferments glucose and xylose efficiently and synchronously. This result highlights the great potential of LF1 for the practical production of second-generation bioethanol.

Project description:The Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain JAY270/PE2 is a highly efficient biocatalyst used in the production of bioethanol from sugarcane feedstock. This strain is heterothallic and diploid, and its genome is characterized by abundant structural and nucleotide polymorphisms between homologous chromosomes. One of the reasons it is favored by many distilleries is that its cells do not normally aggregate, a trait that facilitates cell recycling during batch-fed fermentations. However, long-term propagation makes the yeast population vulnerable to the effects of genomic instability, which may trigger the appearance of undesirable phenotypes such as cellular aggregation. In pure cultures of JAY270, we identified the recurrent appearance of mutants displaying a mother-daughter cell separation defect resulting in rough colonies in agar media and fast sedimentation in liquid culture. We investigated the genetic basis of the colony morphology phenotype and found that JAY270 is heterozygous for a frameshift mutation in the ACE2 gene (ACE2/ace2-A7), which encodes a transcriptional regulator of mother-daughter cell separation. All spontaneous rough colony JAY270-derived isolates analyzed carried copy-neutral loss-of-heterozygosity (LOH) at the region of chromosome XII where ACE2 is located (ace2-A7/ace2-A7). We specifically measured LOH rates at the ACE2 locus, and at three additional chromosomal regions in JAY270 and in a conventional homozygous diploid laboratory strain. This direct comparison showed that LOH rates at all sites were quite similar between the two strain backgrounds. In this case study of genomic instability in an industrial strain, we showed that the JAY270 genome is dynamic and that structural changes to its chromosomes can lead to new phenotypes. However, our analysis also indicated that the inherent level of genomic instability in this industrial strain is normal relative to a laboratory strain. Our work provides an important frame of reference to contextualize the interpretation of instability processes observed in the complex genomes of industrial yeast strains.
