Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Synthesis of total RNA, DNA, and protein was followed in a haploid yeast auxotroph during starvation for required amino acids and uracil, and during shift-up and shift-down conditions. During amino acid starvation, synthesis of macromolecular constituents was not immediately affected, reflecting the presence of large intracellular amino acid pools. Under conditions in which there was no net RNA and protein synthesis (amino acid and uracil starvation), total DNA continued to be synthesized for a total increase of 10-15%. The results suggested that cells engaged in DNA synthesis at the introduction of starvation conditions complete replication of the genome but do not initiate new periods of DNA synthesis. Upon return of a starved culture to complete medium, a period of DNA synthesis was required before the culture began to divide at the rate characteristic for complete medium. Compounds which are known to inhibit DNA synthesis in bacteria had no effect upon starved yeast cultures returned to complete medium. Under shift-down conditions, cultures exhibited a lag in response to that observed during amino acid starvation. During shift-up conditions, DNA and protein increased in a stepwise fashion before assuming a continuous rate of increase characteristic of the new medium. During shift-up RNA was synthesized initially at a high rate; this was found not to be due to exclusive synthesis of a particular class of RNA.

Download or read book Use of Yeast Biomass in Food Production written by Anna Halasz and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-29 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yeast biomass is an excellent source of proteins, nucleic acids, and vitamins. It has been produced and consumed in baked goods and other foods for thousands of years and offers significant advantages when compared to other potential new microbial protein sources. Use of Yeast Biomass in Food Production provides up-to-date information regarding the chemical composition and biochemistry of yeasts, discusses the biotechnological basis of yeast production and possibilities for influencing yeast biomass composition using new techniques in molecular biology. The book examines techniques for producing yeast protein concentrates (and isolates) while still retaining their functional properties and nutritive values, as well as the various uses for these materials and their derivatives in different branches of the food industry. Finally, the book explores possibilities for the production and industrial use of other yeast components, such as nucleic acids, nucleotides, cell wall polysaccharides, autolysates, and extracts. Food microbiologists and technologists, as well as biotechnologists, will discover that this book is an invaluable reference resource.
Download or read book Handbook of Genetics written by Robert C. King and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 668 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this and future volumes of the Handbook of Genetics is to bring together a collection of relatively short, authoritative essays or annotated compilations of data on topics of significance to geneticists. Many of the essays will deal with various aspects of the biology of certain species selected because they are favorite subjects for genetic investigation in nature or the laboratory. Often there will be an encyclopedic amount of information available on such a species, with new papers appearing daily. Most of these will be written for specialists in a jargon that is be wildering to a novice, and sometimes even to a veteran geneticist working with evolutionarily distant organisms. For such readers what is needed is a written introduction to the morphology, life cycle, reproductive be havior, and culture methods for the species in question. What are its par ticular advantages (and disadvantages) for genetic study, and what have we learned from it? Where are the classic papers, the key bibliographies, and how does one get stocks of wild type or mutant strains? The chapters devoted to different species will contain information of this sort. Only a few hundreds of the millions of species available to biologists have been subjected to detailed genetic study. However, those that have make up a very heterogeneous sample of the living world.
Download or read book Protein Synthesis and Translational Control written by John W. B. Hershey and published by Cold Spring Harbor Perspective. This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The synthesis of proteins by ribosomes is a fundamental cellular process. Cells must tightly control protein synthesis to maintain homeostasis and regulate proliferation, growth, differentiation, and development. Indeed, aberrant translational control is associated with cancer, several neurologic syndromes, and genetic disorders including "ribosomopathies." Written and edited by experts in the field, this collection from Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology covers our current understanding of protein synthesis and its control, from the genomic level to single- molecule analysis and single-cell imaging. The contributors describe the fundamental steps in protein synthesis (initiation, elongation, and termination), the factors involved, and high- resolution structures of the translational machinery. They review the targets of translational control (e.g., initiation factors and mRNAs) and how signaling pathways modulate this machinery. The roles of the endoplasmic reticulum, the unfolded protein response, processing bodies (P-bodies), stress granules, and small RNAs (including microRNAs) are also covered. This volume includes discussion of translational deregulation in cancer and the development of therapeutic agents that target translation initiation. Thus, it is an essential reference for cell and molecular biologists, as well as developmental and neurobiologists, oncologists, virologists, and all those investigating human diseases associated with translation dysfunction.

Download or read book Cell Biology of Physarum and Didymium V1 written by Henery Aldrich and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2012-12-02 with total page 459 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cell Biology of Physarum and Didymium, Volume I: Organisms, Nucleus, and Cell Cycle presents important experimental research on Physarum and Didymium for developmental and cellular studies. This book is organized into four parts, encompassing 12 chapters that summarize the taxonomy, biological activities, genetics, and cell cycle of these organisms. The opening part covers two chapters on morphology, taxonomy, phylogeny, biosystematics, and evolutionary implications of Physarum and Didymium species. This is followed by discussions on the biological aspects of these species. These include periodic events of the mitotic cycle in Physarum polycephalum. The general characteristics of chemoreception at the membrane level using plasmodium as a model organism, as well as the structure and motility of plasmodium, are also included. The third part of the book focuses on genetic analysis of plasmodium development and the discovery of techniques for the genetic manipulation of P. polycephalum. Progress in the genetic analysis of other processes is summarized. The concluding part examines the morphological evolution of the nucleus during the mitotic cycle together with the results from ultracytochemical and radioautographic studies. It also includes a discussion on DNA organization and replication in P. polycephalum. Finally, the synthesis and degradation of RNA in Physarum and the relationship of these biochemical processes to mitotic cycle and differentiation are tackled in the concluding chapter. The book will serve as a frequent, single reference source to brief cell biologists on the primary research on Physarum and Didymium. It will be a good source for graduate students in cell biology, and perhaps in other graduate courses.
