Screening of xylose utilizing and high lipid producing yeast strains as a potential candidate for industrial application

Linnea Qvirist RICARDO VAZQUEZ JUAREZ Thomas Andlid (2022, [Artículo])

"Background: Sustainable production of oil for food, feed, fuels and other lipid-based chemicals is essential to meet the demand of the increasing human population. Consequently, novel and sustainable resources such as lignocel- lulosic hydrolysates and processes involving these must be explored. In this paper we screened for naturally-occurring xylose utilizing oleaginous yeasts as cell factories for lipid production, since pentose sugar catabolism plays a major role in efcient utilization of lignocellulosic feedstocks. Glycerol utilization, which is also benefcial in yeast-based oil production as glycerol is a common by-product of biodiesel production, was investigated as well. Natural yeast isolates were studied for lipid accumulation on a variety of substrates, and the highest lipid accumulating strains were further investigated in shake fask cultivations and fermenter studies on xylose and hydrolysate. Results: By collecting leaves from exotic plants in greenhouses and selective cultivation on xylose, a high frequency of oleaginous yeasts was obtained (>40%). Diferent cultivation conditions lead to diferences in fatty acid contents and compositions, resulting in a set of strains that can be used to select candidate production strains for diferent purposes. In this study, the most prominent strains were identifed as Pseudozyma hubeiensis BOT-O and Rhodosporidium toruloides BOT-A2. The fatty acid levels per cell dry weight after cultivation in a nitrogen limited medium with either glucose, xylose or glycerol as carbon source, respectively, were 46.8, 43.2 and 38.9% for P. hubeiensis BOT-O, and 40.4, 27.3 and 42.1% for BOT-A2. Furthermore, BOT-A2 accumulated 45.1% fatty acids per cell dry weight in a natural plant hydrolysate, and P. hubeiensis BOT-O showed simultaneous glucose and xylose consumption with similar growth rates on both carbon sources. The fatty acid analysis demonstrated both long chain and poly-unsaturated fatty acids, depending on strain and medium. Conclusions: We found various natural yeast isolates with high lipid production capabilities and the ability to grow not only on glucose, but also xylose, glycerol and natural plant hydrolysate. R. toruloides BOT-A2 and P. hubeiensis BOT-O specifcally showed great potential as production strains with high levels of storage lipids and comparable growth to that on glucose on various other substrates, especially compared to currently used lipid production strains..."

Estudio espacio-temporal del régimen pluviométrico en la zona meridional de la república mexicana

MARTIN ALFONSO GUTIERREZ LOPEZ Thierry Lebel ROBERTO MEJIA ZERMEÑO (2005, [Artículo])

El territorio de la república mexicana presenta una importante variación espacio-temporal de la precipitación. Con valores que van desde los 200 mm en el norte del país hasta los 3,000 mm en la frontera sur. Se presenta una distribución de probabilidad de Poisson para modelar el número de eventos lluviosos (parámetro λ) y una distribución exponencial para modelar la lámina media de lluvia (parámetro β) por evento. Utilizando el método de Kriging se generan los mapas de dichos parámetros y se emplean los diagramas de Hovmöller para caracterizar el régimen pluviométrico. Se comprueba que estos diagramas son una valiosa herramienta de gestión, al presentar, simultáneamente, la relación entre el número de días lluviosos, su lámina media, su variación temporal y espacial. Los resultados que se presentan para la Región Hidrológica 30, zona Iimítrofe con Guatemala y Belice, indican que las distribuciones de probabilidad propuestas explican de una forma aceptable la variación espacio-temporal de la precipitación.

Functional characterization and cellular dynamics of the CDC-42 - RAC - CDC-24 module in neurospora crassa

CYNTHIA LIZZETH ARAUJO PALOMARES (2011, [Artículo])

Rho-type GTPases are key regulators that control eukaryotic cell polarity, but their role in fungal morphogenesis is only beginning to emerge. In this study, we investigate the role of the CDC-42 - RAC - CDC-24 module in Neurospora crassa. rac and cdc-42 deletion mutants are viable, but generate highly compact colonies with severe morphological defects. Double mutants carrying conditional and loss of function alleles of rac and cdc-42 are lethal, indicating that both GTPases share at least one common essential function. The defects of the GTPase mutants are phenocopied by deletion and conditional alleles of the guanine exchange factor (GEF) cdc-24, and in vitro GDP-GTP exchange assays identify CDC-24 as specific GEF for both CDC-42 and RAC. In vivo confocal microscopy shows that this module is organized as membrane-associated cap that covers the hyphal apex. However, the specific localization patterns of the three proteins are distinct, indicating different functions of RAC and CDC-42 within the hyphal tip. CDC-42 localized as confined apical membrane-associated crescent, while RAC labeled a membrane-associated ring excluding the region labeled by CDC42. The GEF CDC-24 occupied a strategic position, localizing as broad apical membrane-associated crescent and in the apical cytosol excluding the Spitzenkörper. RAC and CDC-42 also display distinct localization patterns during branch initiation and germ tube formation, with CDC-42 accumulating at the plasma membrane before RAC. Together with the distinct cellular defects of rac and cdc-42 mutants, these localizations suggest that CDC-42 is more important for polarity establishment, while the primary function of RAC may be maintaining polarity. In summary, this study identifies CDC-24 as essential regulator for RAC and CDC-42 that have common and distinct functions during polarity establishment and maintenance of cell polarity in N. crassa. © 2011 Araujo-Palomares et al.

Evaluación morfológica, bioquímica y diversidad genética del germoplasma silvestre de Jojoba (Simmondsia chinensis) y Jatropha (Jatropha curcas) del Noroeste de México

NIDIA ARAIZA LIZARDE (2016, [Tesis de doctorado])

Jojoba (Simmondsia chinensis) and jatropha (Jatropha curcas) are potential sources to obtaining oil for industrial purposes and production of biodiesel (Masayuki, 1976; Masayuki and Takeshi, 1980). The objectives of this study were to analyze the morphological characteristics of seeds, oil content, physicochemical parameters of lipid, fatty acids composition and genetic variability of ecotypes of jojoba and jatropha in the Northwest of Mexico. Three ecotypes of jojoba named Indígena la Huerta, Sonoyta, and Todos Santos were evaluated. Sonoyta seeds ecotype has the highest weight, length and thickness (0.82g, 15.98 mm and 9.28 mm). Significant differences in color and seed moisture were observed. The number of seeds per kilogram was higher in the ecotype Indígena la Huerta (1217). The oil content was between 43, 44 and 49% in the 3 ecotypes. Viscosity, density, index of acidity, peroxide, yodine and refraction showed no significant differences. The most abundant fatty acids were the Eicosanoic (52 to 62.43%), oleic (13.80 to 27.36%) and Palmitic (6.43-9.70%). ISSR analysis on the accessions of S. chinensis showed a 54% polymorphic. On the other hand 3 ecotypes of Jatropha curcas Estación Dimas, El Quelite and La Campana were analyzed. No significant differences in weight, length, thickness, humidity and number of seeds per kg. The color of the seeds was 60.80 to 65.64 °Hue. The oil content of the germ of J. curcas was 52 to 56%. Viscosity, density, index of acidity, peroxide, iodine and refraction showed no significant differences in the seeds collected in the three ecotypes in study. The most abundant saturated fatty acids were oleic (44 to 46%), linoleic (42 to 44%) and palmitic (4-6%). SSR analysis of J. curcas accessions showed expected heterozygosity (He) of 0.7524, 0.7092 and 0.7956 in ecotypes of La Campana, Estación Dimas and El Quelite respectively. The wild germplasm of jatropha and jojoba is an alternative in the cosmetics and energy industry and represents a potential for activating the economy in arid and semi-arid regions of México.

Jojoba (Simmondsia chinensis) y jatropha (Jatropha curcas) son fuentes potenciales para la obtención de aceite con fines industriales y para la producción de biodiesel (Masayuki, 1976; Masayuki y Takeshi, 1980). Los objetivos de este trabajo fueron analizar las características morfológicas de las semillas, el contenido de aceite, los parámetros fisicoquímicos de los lípidos, la composición de ácidos grasos y la diversidad genética de ecotipos de jojoba y jatropha en el Noroeste de México. Se evaluaron tres ecotipos de jojoba denominados Indígena la Huerta, Sonoyta y Todos Santos. Las semillas del ecotipo de Sonoyta presentaron el mayor peso, longitud y grosor (0.82 g, 15.98 mm y 9.28 mm). Se observaron diferencias significativas en el color y la humedad de la semilla. El número de semillas por kilogramo fue mayor en el ecotipo de Indígena la Huerta (1217 semillas). El contenido de aceite fue de 43 a 49% en los 3 ecotipos. La viscosidad, densidad específica, índice de acidez, peróxido, yodo y refracción no mostraron diferencias significativas. Los ácidos grasos más abundantes fueron el eicosanoico (52 a 62.43%), oleico (13.80 a 27.36%), y palmítico (6.43 a 9.70%). El análisis ISSR mostró un porcentaje polimórfico de 54 %. Por otro lado, se analizaron 3 ecotipos de Jatropha curcas denominados Estación Dimas, El Quelite y La Campana. No se observaron diferencias significativas en el peso, longitud, grosor, humedad y número de semillas por kilogramo. El color de las semillas fue de 60.80 a 65.64 °Hue. El contenido de aceite del germen de J. curcas fue de 52 a 56%. La viscosidad, densidad específica, índice de acidez, peróxido, yodo y refracción del aceite no mostraron diferencias significativas entre los ecotipos estudiados. Los ácidos grasos más abundantes fueron el oleico (44 a 46%), linoleico (42 a 44%) y palmítico (4 a 6%). El análisis SSR de accesiones de J. curcas mostró la heterocigosidad esperada (He) de 0.7524, 0.7092 y 0.7956 en los ecotipos de La Campana, Estación Dimas y El Quelite, respectivamente. El germoplasma silvestre de jojoba y jatropha es una alternativa en la industria cosmética y energética, representan un potencial para activar la economía en las regiones áridas y semiáridas de México.

Diseño de una red de dispositivos inalámbricos para monitorear la calidad del aire en interiores

FRIDA JENNY DE LA ROSA ANDRADE (2023, [Tesis de maestría])

No cabe duda de que la contaminación ambiental siempre a existido, y es una consecuencia

producida por las diferentes actividades que el ser humano ha realizado a lo largo de su

desarrollo y evolución tecnológica, por lo que conlleva a muchas repercusiones en la

integridad física del ambiente. Las actividades de desarrollo, como la construcción, el

transporte y la fabricación, no solo agotan los recursos naturales, sino que también producen

una gran cantidad de desechos que conducen a la contaminación del aire, el agua, el suelo y

los océanos, dando pie a los problemas más preocupantes del ser humano, tal es el caso del

calentamiento global, las lluvias acidas. Hoy en día la contaminación del aire se considera

un tema de gran importancia puesto que, es uno de los principales problemas en las zonas

más urbanizadas del mundo, y se encuentra presente tanto en los países desarrollados como

en los no desarrollados, por ello surge la necesidad de conocer que tan contaminado se

encuentra el aire que se respira.

El estándar de calidad del aire es una táctica para establecer las condiciones del aire desde un

grado de pureza, hasta una calidad critica perjudicial para el deterioro de la salud humana,

haciendo referencia a la cantidad de contaminación presente en el aire, definiéndola ya sea

de alta calidad con un nivel bajo de contaminación o una mala calidad con un nivel elevado

de concentración de contaminación en el aire.

En este proyecto se diseñará una Red de dispositivos inalámbricos para el análisis y

monitoreo de la calidad del aire en interiores, con la finalidad de fungir como un medidor de

contaminación que le permita a las personas darse cuenta de que tan contaminados están sus

hogares. Por tal motivo en el desarrollo de este proyecto se hará uso de un microcontrolador

Arduino IDE, un Node-red y un phpMyadmin para el análisis y monotoreo constante de

diversos gases como CO, CO2, metano, nitrógeno y O2. Cabe mencionar que este escrito se

ha dividido en 4 capítulos en los cuales se explica detalladamente todos y cada uno de los

procesos llevado a cabo para la elaboración y el desarrollo de este proyecto.

There is no doubt that environmental pollution has always existed, and is a consequence

produced by the different activities that human beings have carried out throughout their

development and technological evolution, which leads to many repercussions on the physical

integrity of the environment. Development activities such as construction, transportation and

manufacturing not only deplete natural resources but also produce a large amount of waste

leading to pollution of air, water, soil and oceans, giving rise to to the most worrying problems

of human beings, such as global warming and acid rain. Nowadays, air pollution is considered

an issue of great importance since it is one of the main problems in the most urbanized areas

of the world, and is present in both developed and undeveloped countries, which is why the

need to know how contaminated the air you breathe is.

The air quality standard is a tactic to establish air conditions from a degree of purity to a

critical quality harmful to the deterioration of human health, referring to the amount of

pollution present in the air, defining it either high quality with a low level of contamination

or poor quality with a high level of concentration of contamination in the air.

In this project, a network of wireless devices will be designed for the analysis and monitoring

of indoor air quality, with the purpose of serving as a pollution meter that allows people to

realize how polluted their homes are. For this reason, in the development of this project, an

Arduino IDE microcontroller, a Node-red and a phpMyadmin will be used for the analysis

and constant monitoring of various gases such as CO, CO2, methane, nitrogen and O2. It is

worth mentioning that this writing has been divided into 4 chapters in which each and every

one of the processes carried out for the preparation and development of this project is

explained in detail.
