Applied Biochemistry and Microbiology Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

The review sums up the results of studies of (1) physiological growth characteristics of the yeast Yarrowia lipolytica cultured in the presence of diverse carbon sources (n-alkanes, glucose, and glycerol) and (2) superhigh synthesis of organic acids, which was performed at the Skryabin Institute of Biochemistry and Physiology of Microorganisms, Russian Academy of Sciences. Microbiological processes of obtaining α-ketoglutaric, pyruvic, isocitric, and citric acids are discussed.
