Project description:The thermotolerant TTY23, acid tolerant AT22, and thermo-acid tolerant TAT12 yeast strains, generated by adaptive evolution experiments were grown at 30°C, pH 5.0 in the absence of acetic acid (optimal ancestral conditions). The mRNA of each strain was isolated and changes in expression were compared against the parental strain S288C.

Project description:Transcriptome sequencing in yeast under acetic acid stress condition
Project description:The non-conventional yeast species Zygosaccharomyces bailii is remarkably tolerant to acetic acid, a highly important microbial inhibitory compound in Food Industry and Biotechnology. ZbHaa1 is the functional homologue of S. cerevisiae Haa1 and a bifunctional transcription factor able to modulate Z. bailii adaptive response to both acetic acid and copper stresses. RNA-Seq was used to investigate genomic transcription changes in Z. bailii during early response to sublethal concentrations of acetic acid (140 mM, pH 4.0) or copper (0.08 mM), and uncover the regulatory network activated by these stresses under ZbHaa1 control.
Project description:High concenHigh concentration acetic acid in the fermentation medium represses cell growth, metabolism and fermentation efficiency of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which is widely used for cellulosic ethanol production. Our previous study proved that supplementation of zinc sulfate in the fermentation medium improved cell growth and ethanol fermentation performance of S. cerevisiae under acetic acid stress condition. However, the molecular mechanisms is still unclear. To explore the underlying mechanism of zinc sulfate protection against acetic acid stress, transcriptomic and proteomic analysis were performed. The changed genes and proteins are related to carbon metabolism, amino acid biosynthesis, energy metabolism, vitamin biosynthesis and stress responses. In a total, 28 genes showed same expression in transcriptomic and proteomic data, indicating that zinc sulfate affects gene expression at posttranscriptional and posttranslational levels.tration acetic acid in the fermentation medium represses cell growth, metabolism and fermentation efficiency of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which is widely used for cellulosic ethanol production.

Project description:In this study, we performed an RNA-Seq transcriptomic analysis concerning acetic acid bacteria’s acid resistance mechanisms during a continuous and periodical industrial submerged vinegar fermentation process, where the acetic acid concentration fluctuates between ~8% and ~12%
Project description:Staphylococcus aureus is an important food poisoning bacterium. In food preservation, acidification is a well-known method. Permeant weak organic acids, like lactic and acetic acids, are known to be more effective against bacteria than inorganic strong acids (e.g., HCl). Growth experiments and metabolic and transcriptional analyses were used to determine the responses of a food pathogenic S. aureus strain exposed to lactic acid, acetic acid, and HCl at pH 4.5. Lactic and acetic acid stress induced a slower transcriptional response and large variations in growth patterns compared with the responses induced by HCl. In cultures acidified with lactic acid, the pH of the medium gradually increased to 7.5 during growth, while no such increase was observed for bacteria exposed to acetic acid or HCl. Staphylococcus aureus increased the pH in the medium mainly through accumulation of ammonium and the removal of acid groups, resulting in increased production of diacetyl (2,3-butanedione) and pyrazines. The results showed flexible and versatile responses of S. aureus to different types of acid stress. As measured by growth inhibition, permeant organic acid stress introduced severe stress compared with the stress caused by HCl. Cells exposed to lactic acid showed specific mechanisms of action in addition to sharing many of the mechanisms induced by HCl stress. Data is also available from http://bugs.sgul.ac.uk/E-BUGS-87
Project description:This transcriptomics analysis was undertaken to elucidate the effect of acetic acid stress in the reprogramming of C. glabrata KUE100 genomic expression. For this cells were cultivated in MM growth medium (at pH 4) either or not supplemented with a sub-lethal inhibitory concentration of acetic acid (30 mM). Furthermore it was also examined the response to the same concentration of acetic acid of a mutant devoid of the CgHaa1 transcription factor
