Functional genetics of Yarrowia lipolytica
The yeast Yarrowia lipolytica has been used for industrial bioconversions since the late 1960’s, mainly by the food and chemical industries. The most important process is presently the production of citric acid f...

Comparison of promoters suitable for regulated overexpression of β-galactosidase in the alkane-utilizing yeastYarrowia lipolytica
Promoters of the genesG3P, ICL1, POT1, POX1, POX2 andPOX5 of the yeastY. lipolytica were studied in respect to their regulations and activities during growth on different carbon sources. The aim of this study was...

Yarrowia lipolytica
Interest in Candida lipolytica (Harrison) Diddens et Lodder 1942 initially arose from its rather uncommon physiological characteristics. Strains of this species were more often isolated from lipid- or protein-con...

Cloning of the isocitrate lyase gene (ICL1) from Yarrowia lipolytica and characterization of the deduced protein
The ICL1 gene encoding isocitrate lyase was cloned from the dimorphic fungus Yarrowia lipolytica by complementation of a mutation (acuA3) in the structural gene of isocitrate lyase of Escherichia coli. The open r...

Improvement of sporulation in the yeastYarrowia lipolytica
Strains ofYarrowia lipolytica forming exclusively spherical ascospores were developed through inbreeding. These strains are more suitable for micromanipulation than other inbred strains forming helm-shaped ascosp...

Genetic regulation of isocitrate lyase in the yeastYarrowia lipolytica
Isocitrate lyase-less (Icl−) mutants were selected from genetically defined strains ofYarrowia lipolytica to investigate the regulation of synthesis of isocitrate lyase (ICL). Eighteen mutations were localized in...
