Yeast Candida apicola Genome sequencing and assembly
Recently, it has been found that C. apicola yeasts isolated from the mezcal fermentation process secreted ß-fructofuranosidases with fructosyltransferase activity, useful for prebiotic synthesis. Therefore, this fermentation process could be selected for certain interesting features that can be discovered by performing a whole genome sequencing of C. apicola. It could lead us to a specific gene catalog for biotechnological applications in fermentation bioprocesses.
