General description

Yeast Nitrogen Base Without Amino Acids and Ammonium Sulfate is recommended to use for classifying yeasts based on their carbon and nitrogen requirements. The medium contains all essential nutrients required for the growth of yeasts except amino acids, histidine, methionine and tryptophan, and also ammonium sulphate. The addition of nitrogen and carbon sources is required as described in the Manual of Clinical Microbiology

Application

Yeast Nitrogen Base Without Amino Acids and Ammonium Sulfate is used in classifying yeasts based on carbon and nitrogen requirements. It contains all essential nutrients required for the growth of yeasts except amino acids, nitrogen and carbohydrate. The addition of nitrogen and carbon sources is required.

Preparation Note

  • Prepare a 10× stock solution by suspending 1.7 g of yeast nitrogen base without amino acids and ammonium sulfate in 100 ml of cold distilled water. Include desired nitrogen and carbon sources.
  • Warm if necessary to solubilize and sterilize by filtration.
  • Store 10× stock solution at 2-8°C. To use, dilute 1:10 with sterile distilled water under aspetic conditions.

Footnote

We offer two media types: the superior granulated GranuCult® and the cost-efficient powdered NutriSelect® culture media, depending on your needs.
The designations basic, plus, or prime are added to indicate the quality control level, from basic quality control to standard QC plus to prime for full regulatory compliance.

Genome-metabolism interactions enable cell growth. To probe the extent of these interactions and delineate their functional contributions, we quantified the Saccharomyces amino acid metabolome and its response to systematic gene deletion. Over one-third of coding genes, in particular those important for chromatin dynamics

Targeting of most integral membrane proteins to the endoplasmic reticulum is controlled by the signal recognition particle, which recognizes a hydrophobic signal sequence near the protein N terminus. Proper folding of these proteins is monitored by the unfolded protein response

Sustainable biofuel production from renewable biomass will require the efficient and complete use of all abundant sugars in the plant cell wall. Using the cellulolytic fungus Neurospora crassa as a model, we identified a xylodextrin transport and consumption pathway required

The directed evolution of biomolecules to improve or change their activity is central to many engineering and synthetic biology efforts. However, selecting improved variants from gene libraries in living cells requires plasmid expression systems that suffer from variable copy number

26S proteasome abundance is tightly regulated at multiple levels, including the elimination of excess or inactive particles by autophagy. In yeast, this proteaphagy occurs upon nitrogen starvation but not carbon starvation, which instead stimulates the rapid sequestration of proteasomes into
