Journal ArticleDOI
A comparison of the oleaginous yeast,Candida curvata, grown on different carbon sources in continuous and batch culture
TL;DR: The oleaginous yeast,Candida curvata D, was grown in both batch and continuous culture on 5 different carbon sources to compare the efficiency of fat production from the various substrates to find the highest biomass and lipid yields were attained.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Nitrogen Source on Lipid Accumulation in Oleaginous Yeasts
TL;DR: It is proposed that the products of glutamate metabolism in Rs. toruloides play a major role in regulating the flux of carbon to precursors of lipid biosynthesis, such as citrate, which is produced as a result of the increased catabolism of glutamate.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Comparative Study of Citrate Efflux from Mitochondria of Oleaginous and Non-oleaginous Yeasts
TL;DR: It is concluded that in fully functional yeast mitochondria, citrate efflux is limited by the amount of intra-mitochondrial citrate made available to the citrate translocator for exchange.
Journal ArticleDOI
Induction of xylulose-5-phosphate phosphoketolase in a variety of yeasts grown ond-xylose: the key to efficient xylose metabolism
TL;DR: It is shown that the presence of a phosphoketolase system can account for the high yields of biomass and ethanol obtained from xylose by producing 2 mol C2 from 1 mol C5, and this pathway must be regarded as a major route of pentose dissimilation in such yeasts.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of Nitrogen Metabolism on Lipid Accumulation by Rhodosporidium toruloides CBS 14
TL;DR: Growth with mixed organic and inorganic nitrogen compounds considerably decreased the lipid content and was accompanied by a reduction in activity of the various catabolic enzymes concerned and the significance of nitrogen catabolism during lipid accumulation in this yeast is discussed.
