Abstract excerpt
To elucidate the mechanism underlying tetrahydrofolate (THF) accumulation in sake yeast strains compared with that in laboratory yeast strains, we performed a quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis. The results revealed that the sake yeast ERC1 allele contributes to an increase in the ratio of THF to the total folate content in sake yeast.
