title: Identification of genes responsible for improved cryoresistance in fermenting yeast cells.
abstract: Using repetitive freezing and thawing, different mutant industrial Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains with increased freeze resistance have been isolated. To get a better insight in the mechanisms responsible for this elevated resistance and to give us the opportunity to modify other strains so that they become more suitable for use in frozen dough preparations, we applied the microarray technology in order to identify genes that are differentially expressed in a freeze-resistant mutant when compared to a freeze-sensitive industrial yeast strain.
