Abstract excerpt
To understand the osmo-adaptation mechanism in Torulopsis versatilis (T), we investigated the salt-tolerant gene HOG1 from the wild-type and a salt-tolerant mutant strain (T5) constructed using genome shuffling. The HOG1 genes from T and T5 were sequenced and revealed several mutations had occurred. The expression level of T5HOG1 was stronger than that of THOG1, indicating a reason for the increase of...
