Pantothenate auxotrophy in a naturally occurring biocontrol yeast

M. P. Rueda Mejia, R. A. Ortiz-Merino, S. Lutz…·F. M. Freimoser

The paper identifies a pantothenate auxotrophic Hanseniaspora meyeri isolate with strong biocontrol activity against plant pathogens, suggesting its auxotrophy may serve as a biocontainment strategy.

Re-oxidation of cytosolic NADH is a major contributor to the high oxygen requirements of the thermotolerant yeast Ogataea parapolymorpha in oxygen-limited cultures

W. J. Dekker, H. Juergens, R. A. Ortiz-Merino…·J. T. Pronk

This study identifies the high oxygen requirements of Ogataea parapolymorpha in oxygen-limited cultures as due to its inability to reoxidize NADH via glycerol formation, relying instead on aerobic respiration.

A squalene-hopene cyclase in Schizosaccharomyces japonicus represents a eukaryotic adaptation to sterol-independent anaerobic growth

J. Bouwknegt, S. J. Wiersma, R. A. Ortiz-Merino…·J. T. Pronk

This study identifies a squalene-hopene cyclase in Schizosaccharomyces japonicus that enables sterol-independent anaerobic growth by synthesizing hopanoids as sterol surrogates.
