AbstractAbstract
The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae has two isoforms of NADP+-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase (Gdh1 and Gdh3) that catalyze the synthesis of glutamate from α-ketoglutarate and NH4 +. In the present study, we confirmed that Gdh3, but not Gdh1, mainly contributes to the oxidative stress resistance of stationary-phase cells and found evidence suggesting that the insignificance of Gdh1 to stress resistance is possibly resulted from conditional and reversible aggregation of Gdh1 into punctuate foci initiated in parallel with postdiauxic growth. Altered localization to the mitochondria or peroxisomes prevented Gdh1, which was originally localized in the cytoplasm, from stationary phase-specific aggregation, suggesting that some cytosolic factors are involved in the process of Gdh1 aggregation. Glucose starvation triggered the transition of the soluble form of Gdh1 into the insoluble aggregate form, which could be redissolved by replenishing glucose, without any requirement for protein synthesis. Mutational analysis showed that the N-terminal proximal region of Gdh1 (NTP1, aa 21-26, TLFEQH) is essential for glucose starvation-induced aggregation. We also found that the substitution of NTP1 with the corresponding region of Gdh3 (NTP3) significantly increased the contribution of the mutant Gdh1 to the stress resistance of stationary-phase cells. Thus, this suggests that NTP1 is responsible for the negligible role of Gdh1 in maintaining the oxidative stress resistance of stationary- phase cells and the stationary phase-specific stresssensitive phenotype of the mutants lacking Gdh3.

AbstractAbstract
Silent information regulator 2 (Sir2), which is the founding member of the sirtuin family of proteins, is a pro-longevity factor for replicative lifespan (RLS) in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Sir2 is required for transcriptional silencing at mating type loci, telomeres, and rDNA loci. Sir2 also represses transcription of highly expressed growth-related genes, such as PMA1 and some ribosomal protein genes. Although the Sir2 paralogues Hst1, Hst2, Hst3, and Hst4 occur in S. cerevisiae, none of them could replace the transcriptional regulation of PMA1 by Sir2 in the wild type. In this study, we demonstrate that Hst1, the closest Sir2 paralogue, deacetylates the acetylated lysine 16 of histone H4 (H4K16Ac) and represses PMA1 transcription in the sir2Δ pde2Δ mutant. We further show that Hst1 plays a role in extending the RLS of the sir2Δ pde2Δ mutant. Collectively, our results suggest that Hst1 can substitute for Sir2 by deacetylating H4K16Ac only in the sir2Δ pde2Δ.

AbstractAbstract
The contamination of food and feed by Aspergillus has become a global issue with a significant worldwide economic impact. The growth of Aspergillus is unfavourable to the development of food and feed industries, where the problems happen mostly due to the presence of mycotoxins, which is a toxic metabolite secreted by most Aspergillus groups. Moreover, fungi can produce spores that cause diseases, such as allergies and asthma, especially to human beings. High temperature, high moisture, retarded crops, and poor food storage conditions encourage the growth of mold, as well as the development of mycotoxins. A variety of chemical, biological, and physical strategies have been developed to control the production of mycotoxins. A biological approach, using a mixed culture comprised of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Lactobacillus rhamnosus resulted in the inhibition of the growth of fungi when inoculated into fermented food. The
results
reveal that the mixed culture has a higher potential (37.08%) to inhibit the growth of Aspergillus flavus (producer of Aflatoxin) compared to either single culture, L. rhamnosus NRRL B-442 and S. cerevisiae, which inhibit the growth by 63.07% and 64.24%, respectively.
