Project description:The yeast Rhodotorula mucilaginosa shown the capability to degrade patulin by the intracellular enzymes. However, the enzymes which risponsible for the degradation process was unkonown. Transcriptome change in response to mycotoxin patulin was analyzed. The molecular mechanism of Rhodotorula mucilaginosa withstand patulin was revealed.

Project description:The experiments were performed to understand the molecular basis of plant growth promotion in rice by Rhodotorula mucilaginosa JGTA-S1, an endophytic yeast from Typha angustifolia Three week old rice plant grown in untreated condition were supplemented with Rhodototorula cell suspension. Shoots were harvested 0hr, 6hrs or 24hrs post treatment. Total RNA isolated from those shoot tissue & used for Microarray. 0 hr treated sample considered here as Control
Project description:Multifunctional biomass is able to provide more than one valuable product, and thus, it is attractive in the field of microbial biotechnology due to its economic feasibility. Carotenogenic yeasts are effective microbial factories for the biosynthesis of a broad spectrum of biomolecules that can be used in the food and feed industry and the pharmaceutical industry, as well as a source of biofuels. In the study, we examined the effect of different nitrogen sources, carbon sources and CN ratios on the co-production of intracellular lipids, carotenoids, β-glucans and extracellular glycolipids. Yeast strain R. kratochvilovae CCY 20-2-26 was identified as the best co-producer of lipids (66.7 ± 1.5% of DCW), exoglycolipids (2.42 ± 0.08 g/L), β-glucan (11.33 ± 1.34% of DCW) and carotenoids (1.35 ± 0.11 mg/g), with a biomass content of 15.2 ± 0.8 g/L, by using the synthetic medium with potassium nitrate and mannose as a carbon source. It was shown that an increased C/N ratio positively affected the biomass yield and production of lipids and β-glucans.
