Cold-adapted yeasts inhabit numerous low-temperature environments where they are subjected to seasonal or permanent cold conditions. Hence, they have evolved a number of adaptation strategies with regard to growth and reproduction, metabolic activities, survival and protection. Due to their distinctive ability to thrive successfully at low and even subzero temperatures, cold-adapted yeasts are increasingly attracting attention in basic science and industry for their enormous biotechnological potential..This book presents our current understanding of the diversity and ecology of cold-adapted yeasts in worldwide cold ecosystems, their adaptation strategies, and their biotechnological significance. Special emphasis is placed on the exploitation of cold-adapted yeasts as a source of cold-active enzymes and biopolymers, as well as their benefits for food microbiology, bioremediation and biocontrol. Further, aspects of food biodeterioration are considered.. | 出版日期 | Book 2014 | 关键词 | Antifreeze proteins; Arctic habitats; Deserts; Extremophiles; Yeast enzymes | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-39681-6 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-662-51215-9 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-642-39681-6 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer-Verlag GmbH, DE |
