Abstract:The intracellular trehalose levels in Shirakami kodama yeast, a strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, isolated in 1997 from leaf mold in the Shirakami Mountains and since used as a commercial baker s yeast, are remarkably high, which presumably is related to its tolerance of freezing and drought conditions. We isolated a spore clone from Shirakami kodama yeast with about 1.7-fold higher intracellular trehalose levels than the parental strain and set out to elucidate how this spore clone can accumulate intracellu… Show more
