Very excited to share this preprint of our work to identify the genetic bases of ROS resistance across the yeast subphylum. bioRxiv Microbiology biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

How can yeast fermentation workflows be optimized in biorefineries for isobutanol production? See our Great Lakes Bioenergy Research Center (GLBRC) collaborative work on using gamma-valerolactone (a renewable green solvent) in biomass pretreatment to achieve high titers of isobutanol pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…


🍺Q: What makes a yeast variety suitable for lager beer rather than ales? 🍻A: Yeast that ferments best at cool temperatures. Industrial lager brewers favor S. pastorianus. 🧬Learn about research from the HittingerLab for more on the genetics of #beer: ow.ly/f4sq50U0Wiz.


🥐 John Crandall, a postdoc in the HittingerLab, works with yeasts both in and outside of the UW Energy Institute lab as a home brewer and baker. Find out what makes a yeast boring or interesting in his colorful spotlight: buff.ly/4fJSlQP #postdoc #microbiology #uwmadison
