  • The Switch from Fermentation to Respiration in Saccharomyces Cerevisiae Is Regulated by the Ert1 Transcriptional Activator/Repressor
    INVESTIGATION The Switch from Fermentation to Respiration in Saccharomyces cerevisiae Is Regulated by the Ert1 Transcriptional Activator/Repressor Najla Gasmi,* Pierre-Etienne Jacques,† Natalia Klimova,† Xiao Guo,§ Alessandra Ricciardi,§ François Robert,†,** and Bernard Turcotte*,‡,§,1 ‡Department of Medicine, *Department of Biochemistry, and §Department of Microbiology and Immunology, McGill University Health Centre, McGill University, Montreal, QC, Canada H3A 1A1, †Institut de recherches cliniques de Montréal, Montréal, QC, Canada H2W 1R7, and **Département de Médecine, Faculté de Médecine, Université de Montréal, QC, Canada H3C 3J7 ABSTRACT In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, fermentation is the major pathway for energy production, even under aerobic conditions. However, when glucose becomes scarce, ethanol produced during fermentation is used as a carbon source, requiring a shift to respiration. This adaptation results in massive reprogramming of gene expression. Increased expression of genes for gluconeogenesis and the glyoxylate cycle is observed upon a shift to ethanol and, conversely, expression of some fermentation genes is reduced. The zinc cluster proteins Cat8, Sip4, and Rds2, as well as Adr1, have been shown to mediate this reprogramming of gene expression. In this study, we have characterized the gene YBR239C encoding a putative zinc cluster protein and it was named ERT1 (ethanol regulated transcription factor 1). ChIP-chip analysis showed that Ert1 binds to a limited number of targets in the presence of glucose. The strongest enrichment was observed at the promoter of PCK1 encoding an important gluconeogenic enzyme. With ethanol as the carbon source, enrichment was observed with many additional genes involved in gluconeogenesis and mitochondrial function. Use of lacZ reporters and quantitative RT-PCR analyses demonstrated that Ert1 regulates expression of its target genes in a manner that is highly redundant with other regulators of gluconeogenesis.

  • Fructose Metabolism from a Functional
    SSE #174 Sports Science Exchange (2017) Vol. 28, No. 174, 1-5 FRUCTOSE METABOLISM FROM A FUNCTIONAL PERSPECTIVE: IMPLICATIONS FOR ATHLETES Luke Tappy, MD | Department of Physiology, Faculty of Biology and Medicine, University of Lausanne, Service of Endocrinology, Diabetes and Metabolism | Lausanne University Hospital, and Cardio-metabolic Center, Broye Hospital | Estavayer-le-lac, Switzerland • Fructose was originally a seasonal natural nutrient, mainly consumed in summer and fall in fruits and vegetables. In the industrial era, it became a permanent constituent of our diet, essentially a constituent of added sugars (sucrose, high-fructose corn syrup). • Fructose cannot be directly metabolized by most cells in our body. It has to be processed first in the gut, liver and kidneys, where it is converted into glucose, lactate and fatty acids. • Too much dietary fructose along with excess energy intake and low physical activity can cause hepatic insulin resistance, hypertriglyceridemia and increased hepatic fat content. GAT11LOGO_GSSI_vert_fc_grn • In exercising athletes, net carbohydrate oxidation increases with glucose ingestion in a dose-dependent manner until a plateau is reached at about 1g/min. The addition of fructose to glucose drinks can further increase carbohydrate oxidation. • During exercise, substantial amounts of fructose can be converted into lactate in splanchnic organs if available and released in the systemic circulation to be oxidized in contracting muscles. This “reverse fructose-lactate Cori cycle” provides additional energy substrate to muscle during exercise. • Conversion of fructose into glucose and lactate in splanchnic organs is associated with enhanced splanchnic energy expenditure, while muscle energy efficiency is minimally altered. • During recovery after exercise, glucose and fructose mutually enhance their gut absorption and their storage as glycogen in the liver.

The key to this energy system is that it uses OXYGEN to supply energy. Just like the anaerobic systems, there are many negatives and positives from using this pathway.

  • Fermentation Microorganisms and Flavor Changes in Fermented Foods R.F
    Fermentation Technology—12th World Congress of Food Science and Technology Fermentation Microorganisms and Flavor Changes in Fermented Foods R.F. MCFEETERS ABSTRACT: Food fermentation processes often result in profound changes in flavor relative to the starting ingredients. However, fermenting foods are typically very complex ecosystems with active enzyme systems from the ingredient materials interacting with the metabolic activities of the fermentation organisms. Factors such as added salt, particle sizes, temperature, and oxygen levels will also have important effects on the chemistry that occurs during fermentation. This is a brief review of recent research on flavor changes in food fermentations. The emphasis will be on the role of lactic acid bacteria in changing the compounds that help determine the character of fermented foods from plant-based substrates. Introduction GC-olfactometry led to recognition of a compound with an odor actic acid bacteria influence the flavor of fermented foods in a close to that of the fermentation brine.

Most importantly, I want to acknowledge my parents: (Dr.) Mrs. Fumie Umezu and (Dr.) Mr. Yasuiki Umezu, for their unwavering support of me throughout my time in the U.S. and for suffering me while I’m doing whatever I want in my life.

  • Fatty Acid Synthesis ANSC/NUTR 618 Lipids & Lipid Metabolism Fatty Acid Synthesis I
    Handout 5 Fatty Acid Synthesis ANSC/NUTR 618 Lipids & Lipid Metabolism Fatty Acid Synthesis I. Overall concepts A. Definitions 1. De novo synthesis = synthesis from non-fatty acid precursors a. Carbohydrate precursors (glucose and lactate) 1) De novo fatty acid synthesis uses glucose absorbed from the diet rather than glucose synthesized by the liver. 2) De novo fatty acid synthesis uses lactate derived primarily from glucose metabolism in muscle and red blood cells. b. Amino acid precursors (e.g., alanine, branched-chain amino acids) 1) De novo fatty acid synthesis from amino acids is especially important during times of excess protein intake. 2) Use of amino acids for fatty acid synthesis may result in nitrogen overload (e.g., the Atkins diet). c. Short-chain organic acids (e.g., acetate, butyrate, and propionate) 1) The rumen of ruminants is a major site of short-chain fatty acid synthesis. 2) Only small amounts of acetate circulate in non-ruminants. 2. Lipogenesis = fatty acid or triacylglycerol synthesis a. From preformed fatty acids (from diet or de novo fatty acid synthesis) b. Requires source of carbon (from glucose or lactate) for glycerol backbone 3T3-L1 Preadipocytes at confluence. No lipid 3T3-L1 Adipocytes after 6 days of filling has yet occurred. differentiation. Dark spots are lipid droplets. 1 Handout 5 Fatty Acid Synthesis B. Tissue sites of de novo fatty acid biosynthesis 1. Liver. In birds, fish, humans, and rodents (approx. 50% of fatty acid biosynthesis). 2. Adipose tissue. All livestock species synthesize fatty acids in adipose tissue; rodents synthesize about 50% of their fatty acids in adipose tissue.

  • Fermentation and Cellular Respiration a Way to Obtain Energy
    FERMENTATION AND CELLULAR RESPIRATION A WAY TO OBTAIN ENERGY LICEO SCIENTIFICO «NICCOLO’ COPERNICO» PROF. ANTONIO ROVELLI -2017 ENERGY FROM FOOD EVERY CHEMICAL BONDS CONTAIN ENERGY. ENERGY IS RELEASED WHEN CHEMICAL BONDS ARE BROKEN. FOOD MOLECULES CONTAIN USEFUL ENERGY THAT WE CAN OBTAIN WHEN THEY ARE DIGESTED (= DIVIDED IN SMALLER MOLECULES) IF OXYGEN IS AVAILABLE, ENERGY IS PRODUCED BY CELLULAR RESPIRATION BUT IN THE ABSENCE OF OXYGEN CELLS USE FERMENTATION. CELLULAR RESPIRATION AND FERMENTATION PRODUCE ATP. WHAT’S ATP (ADENOSINE TRIPHOSPHATE)? ATP IS AN ENERGETICS MOLECULE FORMED BY: * ADENINE ( NITROGENOUS BASE) * RIBOSE (SUGAR) * 3 PHOSPHATE GROUPS FERMENTATION * IS THE PROCESS THAT RELEASES ENERGY FROM FOOD (SUCH AS GLUCOSE) IN THE ABSENCE OF OXIGEN. * GLUCOSE IS CONVERTED IN PIRUVIC ACID AND THAN IN: - ETHYL ALCOHOL (ALCOHOLIC FERMENTATION) - LACITC ACID (LACTIC FERMENTATION) ALCOHOLIC FERMENTATION ACID LACTIC FERMENTATION COMPARISON BETWEEN ALCOHOLIC AND ACID LACTIC FERMENTATION LAB IN PAIR! 1. LABEL TWO TEST TUBES A AND B 2. PUT 10 ML OF WATER AND A FEW DROPS OF BROMTHYMOL BLUE SOLUTION IN EACH TEST TUBE. 3. YOUR PARTNER WILL TIME YOU DURING THIS STEP. WHEN YOUR PARTNER SAYS «GO», SLOWLY BLOW AIR THROUGH A STRAW INTO THE BOTTOM OF TEST TUBE A. CAUTION: DON’T INHALE THROUGH THE STRAW. 4. WHEN THE SOLUTION CHANGES COLOUR, YOUR PARTNER SAY «STOP» AND THEN RECORD HOW LONG THE COLOR CHANGE TOOK. 5. JOG IN PLACE FOR TWO MINUTES. 6. REPEAT STEPS 3-4 USING TEST TUBE B. 7. TRADE ROLES WITH YOUR PARTNER. REPEAT STEPS 1-6. LAB IN GROUP! The purpose of any leavener is to produce the gas that makes bread rise.
