One way to maintain the qualities of the egg white powder could be done through egg white fermentation prior to drying. This research aims to understand the effect of Kluyveromyces lactis fermentation on egg white at different starter concentrations and fermentation time to the physicochemical and functional properties of the egg white powder. The research is conducted in a completely randomized design experiment with nested treatment. The K. lactis starter concentrations were divided into 3 groups (P1 = 0.2%; P2 = 0.4%; and P3 = 0.6%), and the fermentation times were divided into two groups (W1 = 12 h; and W2 = 24 h), with all treatments were repeated four times and nested on the starter concentration. The results showed that concentration K. lactis starter concentration and fermentation time gave no significant effect to the physicochemical and functional (pH, yield, solubility, water, ash, and carbohydrate content, and colours (L*, a*, b*)) properties, but increase the protein content of the egg white powder. The research concludes that egg white fermentation with 0.6% Kluyveromyces lactis concentration for 24 h gave the best physicochemical and functional properties of the egg white powder.

Telomeres counter both outcomes at chromosome ends, partly by keeping MRN-ATM in check. We show that MRX is disabled by telomeric protein Rif2 through an N- terminal motif (MIN, MRN/X-inhibitory motif). MIN executes suppression of Tel1, DNA end- resection and non-homologous end joining by binding the Rad50 N-terminal region. Our data suggest that MIN promotes a transition within MRX that is not conductive for endonuclease activity, DNA-end tethering or Tel1 kinase activation, highlighting an Achilles’ heel in MRN, which we propose is also exploited by the RIF2 paralog ORC4 (Origin Recognition Complex 4) in Kluyveromyces lactis and the Schizosaccharomyces pombe telomeric factor Taz1, which is evolutionarily unrelated to Orc4/Rif2. This raises the possibility that analogous mechanisms might be deployed in other eukaryotes as well. 1 Genome Damage and Stability Centre, School of Life Sciences, University of Sussex, Brighton, UK. 2 Institute for Research in Biomedicine, Faculty of Biomedical Sciences, Universitàdella Svizzera italiana (USI), Bellinzona, Switzerland. 3 Department of Biology, Institute of Biochemistry, Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule (ETH), Zürich, Switzerland.

Perolef-jan No. Panggilan 4 .' 2uu- o'z ABSTRACT Kluyveromyces lactis is beneficial and well-known yeast due to its status of GRAS that has made the yeast as a vital microorganism for the subject of studies and also the applications of industry such as a possible source of single-cell protein with expected probiotic properties, oligonuci eotide-derived flavour enhancers and lactic acid. In addition, High Cell Density Cultivation (HCDC) of K. lactis has been scientifically and biotechnologically important trend in improving microbial mass and product formation substantially. More importantly, fed-batch strategy has been identified as another effective mean to increase the yield by preventing substrate limitation or inhibition through maintaining medium substrate concentration at a low level during cultivation. In this study, there were two system cultivations have been employed which was batch cultivation and fed-batch cultivation. Further studies have been done under batch cultivation on the aeration effect and dissolved 02, DO. The results showed that 1.0 v/v/inin aeration rate gave relatively high cell dry weight, CDW, 18.6 gIL. On the contrary, the results from DO stat value of 60% showed substantial increment with CDW of 28.7 gIL. As for the fed-batch study, constant feeding rate strategy has been applied with two different feeding substrates i.e complete media and mono-lactate.

Evolutionary ecological hypotheses of the recovered taxa and Species Hypotheses are difficult to test due to problems with alignments and the lack of a phylogenetic backbone. We propose an updated phylum- and class-level fungal classification accounting for monophyly and divergence time so that the main taxonomic ranks are more informative. Based on phylogenies and divergence time estimates, we adopt phylum rank to Aphelidiomycota, Basidiobolomycota, Calcarisporiellomycota, Glomeromycota, Entomoph- thoromycota, Entorrhizomycota, Kickxellomycota, Monoblepharomycota, Mortierellomycota and Olpidiomycota. We accept nine subkingdoms to accommodate these 18 phyla. We consider the kingdom Nucleariae (phyla Nuclearida and Fonticulida) as a sister group to the Fungi. We also introduce a perl script and a newick-formatted classification backbone for assigning Species Hypotheses into a hierarchical taxonomic framework, using this or any other classification system.

They are responsible for visible or non-visible defects, such as off-odor and -flavor, and lead to significant food waste and losses as well as important economic losses. Control of fungal spoilage is a major concern for industrials and scientists that are looking for efficient solutions to prevent and/or limit fungal spoilage in dairy products. Several traditional methods also called traditional hurdle technologies are implemented and combined to prevent and control such contaminations. Prevention methods include good manufacturing and hygiene practices, air filtration, and decontamination systems, while control methods include inactivation treatments, temperature control, and modified atmosphere packaging. However, despite technology advances in existing preservation methods, fungal spoilage is still an issue for dairy manufacturers and in recent years, new (bio) preservation technologies are being developed such as the use of bioprotective cultures. This review summarizes our current knowledge on the diversity of spoilage fungi in dairy products and the traditional and (potentially) new hurdle technologies to control their occurrence in dairy foods.

Its discriminative potential is based on the detection of the enzyme b-galactosidase, in the absence of lactose. Of the more than 95 strains tested, including yeasts, bacteria, and ®lamentous fungus, only the strains of K. marxianus and K. lactis produced blue colonies on the medium due to the presence of X-Gal/ IPTG. The bacterial strains were not able to grow in KDM. On this basis, the medium was very satisfactory when testing naturally or experimentally contaminated dairy food products. When quality assessment tests were performed, optimal values of productivity (growth and color) and selectivity were obtained for K. marxianus and K. lactis. At present, microbial quality control in food industries MATERIALS AND METHODS is mainly focused on detecting pathogenic bacteria, while only total numbers of yeasts, together with ®lamentous fun- Strains. A total of 87 yeast strains have been used in this work (Table 1).

Gorter de Vries, http://orcid.org/0000-0002-0841-6583 ‡Jean-Marc G. Daran, http://orcid.org/0000-0003-3136-8193 ABSTRACT While CRISPR-Cas9-mediated genome editing has transformed yeast research, current plasmids and cassettes for Cas9 and guide-RNA expression are species specific. CRISPR tools that function in multiple yeast species could contribute tothe intensifying research on non-conventional yeasts. A plasmid carrying a pangenomic origin of replication and two constitutive expression cassettes for Cas9 and ribozyme-flanked gRNAs was constructed. Its functionality was tested by analyzing inactivation of the ADE2 gene in four yeast species. In two Kluyveromyces species, near-perfect targeting (≥96%) and homologous repair (HR) were observed in at least 24% of transformants.
