摘要:

红酵母是一类产红色素酵母的总称,广泛分布于土壤、海洋、江河、湖泊等各种生态环境。很多红酵母菌株具有生产多糖、油脂、类胡萝卜素等活性物质的能力,在养殖、食品、医药和化妆品等领域具有很大的应用潜力。近年来对红酵母的研究逐渐深入,对不同红酵母的基因组序列和代谢关键酶进行了研究,扩展了对这类重要酵母的深入认识。此外,对红酵母的基因组编辑和代谢工程改造也取得了进展,为提高其工业应用效率奠定了基础。本文综述了红酵母的生物技术应用,以及红酵母基因组分析和代谢工程改造相关的研究进展,为未来更深入理解红酵母的生理代谢和利用红酵母转化可再生生物质资源,进行可持续生产提供基础。

Abstract:

Red yeast is a general term for a class of red pigment-producing yeast, and they are widely distributed in various ecological environments such as soil, sea, rivers and lakes. Red yeasts have the ability to produce polysaccharides, oils, carotenoids and other active substances and thus own great potential for applications in agriculture, food, medicine and cosmetics. In recent years, studies on red yeast including their applications, genome sequencing and key metabolic enzymes have expanded the in-depth knowledge of this important group of yeast. In addition, progress has been made in genome editing and metabolic engineering modification of these yeasts, providing basis for developing more efficient red yeast strains for industrial applications. Here, we review the applications of red yeast and related research advances in genomic studies and metabolic engineering. This review would be helpful for better understanding the physiology and metabolic features of red yeast, as well as utilization of renewable biomass for sustainable bioproduction using red yeast.
