Kluyveromyces fragilis KCTC 7260 and Saccharomyces cerevisiae KCTC 7904, which both grew well in pear marc extract, were selected and their growth profiles and physiological functionalities were determined. Both of the selected yeasts established maximal growth by 20 hr of cultivation at $30^{\circ}C$ in pear marc extract. The cell-free extracts showed high antihypertensive angiotensin I-converting enzyme inhibitory activity of 68.9% and 52.1%, respectively. The extracts also displayed 9.2 U/mL and 12.0 U/mL of protease activity, respectively.

Growth profiles of Candida krusei KCTC 7213, Torulopsis sphaerica KCTC 7138 and Zygosaccharomyces rouxii KCCM 12066 in pear marc extract were determined. Candida krusei KCTC 7213 showed the highest growth in 20 hr cultivation at $30^{\circ}C$, whereas both of Torulopsis sphaerica KCTC 7138 and Zygosaccharomyces rouxii KCCM 12066 established maximal growth by 25 hr of cultivation at $30^{\circ}C$ in pear marc extract. However, all of yeasts showed lower growth in pear marc extracts rather than those of YEPD medium.
