AIT101 MICROBIOLOGY Lecture: Yeast Kamonchai Cha-aim, Ph.D.
February 9th, 2015
Outline• History of yeast• Structure and life cycle of yeast • Nature of yeast • Applications of yeast in industries
Objectives• To understand the nature, structures, and life cycles of yeast and mold.
• To explain the applications of yeast for the production of fermented products.
Figure 1. Classification of yeast and mold.
PART I: YEASTSaccharomyces cerevisiae
General Characteristics of Yeast• Eukaryotic microorganism• Unicellular or multicellular• About 1,500 species
• Are all yeast useful?• Cell size 3-6 μm or up to >40 μm• Shape: oval, sphere, cylindrical, elongate form • Sexual or asexual reproduction (budding mitosis)• Symmetric or asymmetric division• Fermentation (not all yeast)• Pathogens causing infection in human
History of Yeast• Egyptian (4000 B.C.) made bread and wine.• However, nobody know what was the microbe play an important role for the biochemical process of fermentation……
….Until 1857…
Louis Pasteur discovered yeast
History of Yeast
History of Yeast• Yeast has been used for proteins production since 1980. For example; Insulin, enzymes such as amylase, lipase, phosphatase• In 1996, DNA sequencing of Saccharomyces cerevisiae
was completed. • www.yeastgenome.org• 5,800 genes were identified
• Essential gene • Nonessential gene

Mannoprotein; Yeast wall mannoproteins are highly glycosylated polypeptides, often 50 to 95% carbohydrate by weight.
Sugar can add 50,000 to 100,000 Da to the size of the mannoproteins.
Structure and life cycle of Yeast• Yeast Cell Wall
Glucan; The major component (about 85%) is a branched β-(1→3)-glucan of high molecular weight (about 240000) containing 3% of β-(1→6)-glucosidic interchain linkages.
The minor component is a branched β-(1→6)-glucan.

Chitin; is a long-chain polymer of a N-acetylglucosamine, a derivative of glucose.

Structure and life cycle of Yeast• Yeast Cell Wall
Membrane; selective permeable, protect cell, phospholipid bilayer and proteins
Structure and life cycle of Yeast• Nucleus; The main function of the cell nucleus is to control
gene expression and mediate the replication of DNA during the cell cycle.
Structure and life cycle of Yeast• Nucleus; Yeast Chromosome
Structure and life cycle of Yeast• Nucleus; DAPI staining yeast nucleus(4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole)Hoechst33342 (Bisbenzimid)
Structure and life cycle of Yeast• Vacuole; is essentially enclosed compartments which are
filled with water containing inorganic and organic molecules including enzymes in solution.
Structure and life cycle of Yeast Vacuole; In general, the functions of the vacuole include:• Isolating materials that might be harmful or a threat to the
cell• Containing waste products• Containing water in plant cells• Maintaining internal hydrostatic pressure within the cell• Maintaining an acidic internal pH• Containing small molecules• Exporting unwanted substances from the cell

Nature of Yeast and Mold Where is yeast found in nature?• On the skins of fruits and berries ( such as grapes,
apples, or peaches)• In exudates from plants (such as plant saps or cacti)• Some yeasts are found in association with soil and
insects.
Nature of Yeast and MoldYeast and Temperature• Cool temperature (below 15oC) Stress Condition Dormancy cells
• Warm temperature (15 – 30oC)
Optimal temperature for rapid growth yeast (25-35oC)
• High temperature (40oC)Stress Condition Arrest growth
Application of Yeast• Bioethanol • Beer-wine industry• Bread• Source of protein/vitamin• Make vaccine of Hepatitis B (recombinant DNA)• Making Interferon• b-glucan• Mannoprotein: wine clarification
Applications of yeast and mold in industries
Yeast• Saccharomyces cerevisiae• S. carlbergensis• Kluyveromyces marxianus• Saccharomycopsis fibuligera
How to utilize them?• Alcoholic beverage by sugar fermentation• Baking bread• Nutritional supplements• Yeast extract• Enzymes production
Applications of yeast and mold in industries• Alcoholic beverage by sugar fermentation

ALKOSEL® R397• ALKOSEL® R397 is a specific inactivated whole cell yeast
(Saccharomyces cerevisiae) product containing the essential trace element selenium in its natural food form, L(+) selenomethionine.
• It is produced by growing yeast in the presence of measured amounts of selenium. This specific yeast strain absorbs selenium and biochemically transforms it into the highly bioavailable L(+) selenomethionine and other seleno-proteins.
• Selenomethionine is naturally found in edible plant protein but only at very low concentration. It is the most suitable form of selenium for animal nutrition.
