The Crabtree phenotype defines whether a yeast can perform simultaneous respiration and fermentation under aerobic conditions at high growth rates. It provides Crabtree positive yeasts an evolutionary advantage of consuming glucose faster and producing ethanol to outcompete other microorganisms in sugar rich environments. While a number of genetic events are associated with the emergence of the Crabtree effect, its evolution remains unresolved. Here we show that overexpression of a single Gal4-like transcription factor is sufficient to convert Crabtree-negative Komagataella phaffii (Pichia pastoris) into a Crabtree positive yeast. Upregulation of the glycolytic genes and a significant increase in glucose uptake rate due to the overexpression of the Gal4-like transcription factor leads to an overflow metabolism, triggering both short-term and long-term Crabtree phenotypes. This indicates that a single genetic perturbation leading to overexpression of one gene may have been sufficient as the first molecular event towards respiro-fermentative metabolism in the course of yeast evolution.

Affinity chromatographic purification of recombinant human growth hormone
Balcı, Oğuz; Çalık, Pınar; Department of Biotechnology (2008)
The purpose of the study is to purify human growth hormone from the fermentation broth by affinity chromatography. For this purpose, human growth hormone specific oligonucleotide aptamers are selected among an aptamer library; selected oligonucleotides were synthesized and used as ligands. Effect of pH on ligand-human growth hormone complex formation was investigated and the highest complex formation was obtained at pH= 7.0. Human growth hormone is separated from the fermentation broth with 99.8% purity and...
Cloning, expression and sequencing of citrate synthase from thermoplasma volcanium
Çekiç, Çağlar; Kocabıyık, Semra; Department of Biotechnology (2004)
In this study first time, we have cloned and sequenced the citrate synthase gene from a thermoacidophilic archaeon Thermoplasma (Tp.) volcanium (Optimum growth temperature of Tp.volcanium is 60oC and optimum pH is 2.0.). For cloning we have followed a PCR based approach. Amplification of citrate synthase gene from chromosomal DNA of Tp.volcanium yielded a product of 1476 bp containing an open reading frame of 1161 bp comprising the structural gene. After ligation of the PCR amplicon to pDrive vector through...
Temperature and Glycerol Formation: A Proposal to Explain the Causal Relationship Based on Glycolytic Enzyme Activities
Buyukkileci, Ceylan; Batur, Aysem; BÜYÜKKİLECİ, ALİ OĞUZ; Hamamcı, Haluk (2019-04-01)
Most yeast strains produce glycerol in larger quantities when cultivated at higher temperatures, which likely explains why red wines contain higher amounts of glycerol than white wines. In this work, we used a kinetic and thermodynamic approach to suggest a mechanistic explanation for this phenomenon. We began with a glycolytic model of the kinetics of the individual enzymes. The effects of temperature and ethanol on the apparent kinetics of individual enzymes were then determined and incorporated into the ...
The role of calcium ion on activated sludge biochemical and physical properties in phosphorus deficient growth medium
Aksu, Ceren; Sanin, Faika Dilek; Gültekin, Güzin Candan; Department of Biotechnology (2010)
Nutrients and cations have significant effect on activated sludge characteristics and therefore effect the efficiency of whole processes. To determine the properties in phosphorus deficient medium and the effect of calcium ions two reactor sets with two different phosphorus concentration (C/N/P=100/5/0.05 and C/N/P=100/5/1), three different concentrations of calcium (0.5, 5, 15 meq/L) were operated with 8 days of sludge residence time and an effective volume of 2 L. Results showed amount and composition of ...
Xylanase production by mixed culture submerged fermentation
Ören, Gözde; Çekmecelioğlu, Deniz; Department of Food Engineering (2014)
The growing interest in enzyme production by the usage of microorganisms continues for easier process control and sustainably higher amount of enzyme production. Food and agricultural industry, which produces large amounts of waste materials, is an excellent resource for enzyme manufacture. Among all, xylanase is considered to have 25 % shares in conjunction with pectinolytic enzymes within food enzyme production and extensively used in extraction/clarification of juices and wines, improvement of bread-qual...
