RNA-seq technique was used to analyze the transcriptomics ofYarrowia lipolytica control strain Po1g, an erythritol-producing natural isolate Yarrowia lipolytica Y 22 and an erythritol high-yielding mutant strain Y44 derived from Y 22. Functional annotation of genes and classification of metabolic pathways were carried out to identify Differentially Expressed Genes (DEGs). These DEGs were classified into related metabolic pathways to explain the molecular mechanism of high yield of erythritol production. The results showed that the upregulated genes in erythritol-producing natural isolate Y 22 and erythritol-producing mutant strain Y 44 were mainly involved in pentose phosphate pathway, Tricarboxylic Acid Cycle (TCA) and malic acid cycle. The downregulated genes were mainly involved in amino acid synthesis and oxycarboxylic acid metabolism. The synergistic regulation of the above metabolic pathways can increase the input and reduce the output of erythrose-4-P (E-4-P), which is the precursor of erythritol, promoting erythritol production. In addition, compared with the natural isolate Y 22, the genes related to cell wall synthesis were down-regulated and the expression of transmembrane transporter protein was up-regulated in high-yield mutant strain Y 44. In this way, the permeability of yeast cells is enhanced and the synthesized erythritol can be quickly transported to the outside of the cell, which reduces the decomposition of erythritol and further promotes its yield.
To avoid complex procedures in measurement of lipid content of oleaginous yeast especially for that can accumulate microbial lipid in lignocellulosic hydrolysates, fluorescent method using Nile Red as fluorescent dye was applied to measure lipid content of oleaginous yeast Trichosporon dermatis. The fluorescent method was built by fitting of lipid content identified by both conventional gravimetric method and fluorescence intensity of oleaginous yeast. Within the range of lipid content measured, the fitting curves showed linear relationship with good correlation coefficient (R2=0.95), showing this method is suitable for measuring lipid content of T. dermatis in the simulated medium. To evaluate the applicability of this method for lipid fermentation using lignocellulosic acid hydrolysates as substrate, T. dermatis was cultured in corncob acid hydrolysate and rice straw acid hydrolysate and then its lipid content measured by both fluorescent method and gravimetric method were compared. The results showed that the lipid content measured by these two methods were close, therefore, this method was promising for the application in lipid fermentation in lignocellulosic acid hydrolysates.
