In order to maximize the secretory expression of human serum albumin (HSA) in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, a series of HSA expression vectors were constructed with a combination of different promoters, 5' untranslated regions (5'UTR), and secretion signal sequences. The expression vector composed of the galactose-inducible promoter GALl0, the natural 5'UTR, and the natural signal sequence of HSA directed the most efficient expression and secretion of HSA among the constructed vectors when introduced into several S. cerevisiae strains. Although the major form of HSA expressed and secreted in the yeast transformants was the mature form of 66 kDa, the truncated form of 45 kDa was also detected both in the cell extract and in the culture supernatant. The level of the intact HSA protein in the culture supernatant reached up to 30 mg/l at 24 h of cultivation in a shake-flask culture but began to decrease afterwards, indicating that the secreted HSA protein was unstable in a prolonged culture of yeast.

In 2021, seven yeast strains were isolated from earthworm (Eisenia andrei) gut samples collected from the Nanji Water Regeneration Center in Goyang City, Gyeonggi Province, Korea. A total of seven yeasts were isolated, of which three strains have not been previously reported in Korea. To identify the yeasts, pairwise sequence comparisons of large subunit (LSU) rDNA sequences were performed using the basic local alignment search tool (BLAST). Assimilation test and cell morphology analysis were performed using the API 20C AUX kit and phase contrast microscope, respectively. Five of the seven strains were assigned to the genus Candida of the order Saccharomycetales of the class Saccharomycetes, and two to the genus Apiotrichum of the order Trichosporonales of the class Tremellomycetes. The yeast strain Candida sojae E2 belongs to the family Debaryomycetaceae, and Apiotrichum laibachii E8 and A. laibachii E9 belong to the family Trichosporonaceae. All strains were cultured in yeast mold agar for three days and showed different colony forms. C. sojae E2 was round and entire shaped, while A. laibachii E8 and A. laibachii E9 was round and convex shaped. This study focuses on the description of the three yeast strains that have not been officially reported in Korea.

The production of pullulan by Aureobasidium pullulans HP-2001 was investigated under various ratios of glucose as carbon source and yeast extract as the nitrogen source, Highest conversion rate (productivity) of glucose to pullulan was 40.0% when concentrations of glucose and yeast extract were 5% and 0.15%, respectively. Maximal production of pullulan was 29.3g/1 when the concentration of glucose was 8%(w/v) and that of yeast extract was 40:1. On basis of the result that production of pullulan was found in a medium which concentration of glucose as carbon source was up to 20%(w/v), Aureobasidium pullulans HP-2001 seemed to overcome the catabolite repression. Conversion rate of pullulan from 20%(w/v) of glucose was 11.1%.

In 2020, 11 Basidiomycetous yeast strains were isolated from soil samples collected from the forests of Namhansanseong in Korea. Among them, seven species were reported, but four species were unreported in Korea. To identify wild yeasts, pairwise sequence comparisons of D1/D2 domain of the 26S rRNA were performed using Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLAST). The cell morphologies and assimilation test are observed by phase contrast microscope and API 20C AUX kit, respectively. The 11 strains were assigned to the genera Rhodotorula (4 strains) of the order Sporidiobolales of the class Microbotryomycetes; and Cryptococcus(2 strains), Goffeauzyma (1 strains), Naganishia (2 strains) of the order Filobasidiales and Saitozyma (2 strains) of the order Tremellales of the class Tremellomycetes in the phylum Basidiomycota. The unreported yeast strains Cryptococcus gastricus 20n5-2, Goffeauzyma gilvescens 20n2-7, Naganishia adeliensis 20n8-1, and Naganishia friedmannii 20n24-1 belong to the family Filobasidiaceae. All strains had oval shaped cells and cream-colored colonies cultured on on YM agar for 3 days. In this study, we focus on the description of four unreported yeast species in Korea.

The purpose of this study was to isolate and identify wild yeasts from the soil collected in Gwangju and Pocheon City, Gyeonggi Province, Republic of Korea. Among 10 strains, six strains were already reported, but four strains were unrecorded in Republic of Korea. To identify wild yeast strains, pairwise sequence comparisons of the D1/D2 region of the 26S rRNA gene sequence were performed using Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLAST). The cell morphologies were observed by phase contrast microscope and assimilation tests were carried out using API 20C AUX kit. The 10 strains were assigned to the phyla Basidiomycota (8 strains) and Ascomycota (2strains). The unrecorded four yeast strains, NH33, NH19, NH20, and YP416, belong to the phylum Basidiomycota and the genera Buckleyzyma, Leucosporidium, Holtermanniales, and Mrakia, respectively. All strains had oval-shaped and polar budding cells. In this research, the morphological and biochemical properties of four unreported yeast species were characterized intensively, which were not officially reported in Korea.

The objective of this study was to determine the effects of yeast cultures (Candida zeylanoides and Debaryomyces hansenii) isolated from traditionally dry fermented Turkish sucuks, on some physicochemical and microbiological properties of the product. Eight different batches of the sucuks were produced by the inoculation of yeast and lactic acid bacteria (LAB) cultures (Lactobacillus curvatus, Lactobacillus plantarum and Lactobacillus sakei) in different combinations. The sucuks were ripened for 12 days and analyzed at 1st, 6th, and 12th days of ripening. Percent moisture content, pH, water activity (aw) and residual nitrite values of the sucuk inoculated with the yeast cultures were higher at the end of the ripening. The use of yeast cultures decreased hardness, gumminess, and chewiness values of the sucuk while increased adhesiveness values. Major volatile groups were aldehydes, terpenes, and sulphur compounds in the sucuk samples. The most noticeable results were for sensory properties of the sucuk that were positively improved by the yeast cultures.

항효모 활성이 우수한 녹차씨로부터 천연 보존소재를 개발하기 위하여 추출 원료를 최적화하기 위한 녹차씨의 전처리 방법을 평가하였다. 과피 유무에 따른 녹차씨의 추출 결과 추출물의 항효모 활성은 같았으며, 추출 수율은 과피를 제거한 속씨에서 근소하게 높은 것으로 나타났다. 건조에 따른 녹차씨의 수분 함량은 항효모 활성에는 영향을 주지 않았으나 추출 수율은 7.3% 수분 함량에서 가장 높게 나타났다. 분쇄 공정에 따른 녹차씨 추출물의 항효모 활성은 같았으나, 원료의 입도가 작은 믹서 분쇄 원료에서 추출 수율이 더 높게 나타났다. 녹차씨 오일을 추출한 부산물인 탈지 녹차씨를 추출하여 보존소재 원료로써 활용 가능성을 평가한 결과 항효모 활성은 녹차씨 추출물과 같았으며, 탈지 방법에 따라 수율은 다르게 나타나 헥산 추출 탈지 녹차씨보다 압착 탈지 녹차씨의 추출 수율이 더 높게 나타났다. 녹차씨의 전처리 방법 평가에 따라 천연 보존소재를 추출하기 위한 원료로서 과피가 포함된 녹차씨를 수분 함량 7.3%로 건조한 후 롤밀 분쇄하여 착유기로 오일을 추출한 탈지 녹차씨를 제조하였다. 탈지 녹차씨를 추출 용매에 따라 추출한 후 수율 및 항효모 활성을 조사한 결과 경제성이 높은 추출 용매는 물이 적합하였다. 추출 온도 및 시간에 따른 탈지 녹차씨의 추출결과 $90^{\circ}C$ 추출에서는 항효모 활성이 다소 불안정한 것으로 나타났다. 추출 수율과 항효모 활성의 안정성을 고려하여 물을 용매로 하였을 때 $50^{\circ}C$, 4시간 추출 조건이 적합할 것으로 생각된다.

곱게 갈아 액화시킨 음식물 찌꺼기를 기질로 생균사료를 생산하기 위한 효모의 호기적 액상발효에 있어서 효모증식에 대한 교반속도의 영향을 연구하였다. screening을 통해 선택한 효모인 Kluyvermyces marxianus를 종균으로 2liter jar fermenter를 이용하여 호기적 조건에서 곱게 분쇄해 10% 고형분 함량을 갖는 기질에 교반속도를 500rpm, 900rpm, 1200rpm를 다르게 조정하여 $35^{\circ}C$에서 증식시켰다. 효모의 증식을 촉진시키기 위하여 고분자물질을 분해하는 효소를 분비하는 곰팡이 Aspergillus oryzae와 혼합발효를 실시하여 단독발효와 비교하였다. 발효결과 교반속도가 증가할수록 생균수도 높아져 400rpm에서보다는 900rpm에서 높은 생균수를 보였으나 1200rpm에서는 오히려 감소하였다. 혼합발효는 amylase의 역가를 높여주어 증식속도를 높여 주나 발효종료단계에서 최고 생균수를 증가시켜주지는 않는 것으로 나타났다.

1976年 3月부터 1977年 2月까지 滿 12個月동안 榮山江 汽水域 39個 場所로부터 採水한 156個 water sample로서 酵母의 季節的 分布와 度包配에 따른 이들 酵母의 分布型을 調査하였다. 酵母의 全體 平均値는 100ml당 52에서 487個의 生菌數를 보여주었고 가장 많은 個體數는 春季에 있었고 가장 적은 個體數는 夏季에 있었다. 14屬 83種에 해당하는 933個의 酵母와 한 種의 酵母樣 곰팡이가 分離되었는데 基中 Candida가 29%, Debaryomyces가 17.3%, Rhodotorula가 16%, Saccharomyces가 14%이었고 나머지 다른 屬들은 10%以內이었다. Debaryomyces hansenii와 Rhodotorula glutinis가 全水域에서는 물론 年中 優點種이었고 총 好氣性細菌集團의 크기, 陸水流入量, 그리고 몇가지 지형적 기후적 요소들이 汽水환경에서 酵母의 季節的 分布는 물론 種의 組成을 反映하는 같다. 酵母의 平均數, 種의 多樣性 特히 醱酵性 및 爲菌系形成 母酵들의 數는 감度가 감소함에 따라 增加한 反面 질산염 利用酵母들은 위와 相反된 경향을 보여주었는데 이는 汽水域에서 酵母의 分布型을 認識하는데 감度勾配가 바람직한 看破 요소로서 利用될 수 ㅣ있음을 시사하고 있다.
