Abstract:Microorganisms including yeasts are responsible for mineralization of organic matter in cold regions, and their characterization is critical to elucidate the ecology of such environments on Earth. Strategies developed by yeasts to survive in cold environments have been increasingly studied in the last years and applied to different biotechnological applications, but their knowledge is still limited. Microbial adaptations to cold include the synthesis of cryoprotective compounds, as well as the presence of a hi… Show more
