  • Biosynthesis of Pyruvic acid (cas 127-17-3) from glycerol-containing substrates and its regulation in the yeast Yarrowia lipolytica

  • Add time:09/25/2019    Source:sciencedirect.com

    The ability of different yeasts to synthesize Pyruvic acid (cas 127-17-3) (PA) from glycerol-containing substrates has been studied. The selected strain Yarrowia lipolytica VKM Y-2378 synthesized PA with α-ketoglutaric acid (KGA) as a byproduct. The content of KGA greatly depended on cultivation conditions. The minimal formation of the byproduct was provided by the limitation of yeast growth by thiamine (0.6 µg/g biomass); the use of ammonium sulfate (0.6%) as a nitrogen source; addition of glycerol to cultivation medium in 20 g/L portions; maintaining the cultivation temperature at 28 °C, pH of the cultivation medium at 4.5, and medium aeration between 55 and 60% of saturation; the optimal cultivation time was 48 h. The selected strain cultivated under such conditions in a fermenter with a waste glycerol from biodiesel production process synthesized 41 g/L PA with a yield of 0.82 g/g. The mechanism of PA production from glycerol-containing substrates in Y. lipolytica is discussed.
