Cold-Active Enzymes from Cold-Adapted Yeasts

  • Chapter
  • First Online:

Abstract

Cold-adapted yeasts include psychrophiles or psychrotolerant nonconventional species able to survive and grow at low temperatures. They represent an important source of biological diversity that has developed a set of structural and functional adaptation strategies to overcome the adverse effects of cold (sometimes associated with other limiting conditions). Among them, the production of cold-active enzymes is probably one of the most efficient adaptations of the eukaryotic physiology at low temperatures. Current literature reports that cold-active enzymes exhibit several advantages than their mesophilic and thermophilic homologues and may successfully replace traditional catalysts in a range of industrial applications carried out at low and moderate temperatures. Due to their singular traits, some cold-active hydrolases (i.e., lipases, amylases, and proteases,) isolated from cold-adapted yeasts have been studied since some decades, while some other, namely, xylanases, chitinases, pectinolytic enzymes, glycosidases, phytases, and invertases, have recently attracted a rising attention for their biotechnological potential from the academy and industry for both food and nonfood exploitations.
