It is end of April and you may need some vitamins. You can start by reading the collaborative hattrick by @aksnorw and @thomasperli, starting with Vitamin requirements and biosynthesis in Saccharomyces cerevisiae onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

My latest article has been published on @AppEnvMicro! Check it out, it's #openaccess! @pacmen_itn #MSCA #H2020 Adaptive laboratory evolution and reverse engineering of single-vitamin prototrophies in Saccharomyces cerevisiae aem.asm.org/content/early/20…

Always wondered why a mixture of so many vitamins is added to yeast medium? We reviewed vitamin synthesis and its genetics in a broad range of yeasts. Have a look! Thanks to @rortiz_ESR @thomasperli @Jack_Pronk_ @jgdaran1 @pacmen_itn and @Yeast_Journal onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

Why are vitamins added to chemically defined yeast media? Was decided in the 40's and not questioned much afterwards. Find answers and perspectives in the latest review of @yeast_journal's yeast extracts series. By @thomasperli and @aksnorw (@pacmen_itn) onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

Our first paper of the #PeakYeast project is out, revealing the diversity inside the Hanseniaspora genus and the presence of hybrids: frontiersin.org/article/10.3…

Pls retweet! In 2020, we start a postgraduate course in Malting & Brewing Science @KU_Leuven, right in the heart of beer-country Belgium! This one-year program supported by @ABInBev_BE combines teachers from academia as well as Belgian breweries. biw.kuleuven.be/studeren/mal…

Promovendus @Arthur_GdV was te gast bij @BNR @BNRWetenschap om te vertellen over deze gisten > bnr.nl/podcast/wetenschap-va…
Ja, ook dit is onderzoek @TUDelft > Pilsgist, het micro-organisme waar brouwers jaarlijks honderden miljarden liters pils en andere lagerbieren mee maken, is zo’n 500 jaar geleden ontstaan door een toevallige ontmoeting tussen twee gistsoorten. tudelft.nl/2019/tnw/alle-pil…

Dankzij een uitgebreide DNA-analyse en een slim algoritme bedacht door onderzoekers van de @tudelft, weten we nu dat de giststammen waarmee al onze pilsjes worden gemaakt, dezelfde voorouders hebben #wetenschapvandaag bnr.nl/podcast/wetenschap-va…
'All Pilsner yeast strains originate from a single yeast ancestor'. Very interesting work by @jgdaran1, @ThomasAbeel, @Arthur_GdV and others: tudelft.nl/en/2019/tnw/all-p… #TUDelft

In our manmade bottleneck hypothesis, two groups emerged by human selection: Group 1 has long been known to have been isolated in 1883 by Hansen at the Carlsberg brewery. We now show that the Heineken A-Yeast, which was isolated in 1886 by Elion is the oldest known group 2 yeast.

Nowadays, Pilsner is brewed almost exclusively using group 2 yeast. Based on our results, I personally think it is possible that all current Group 2 yeasts descend from isolates made by Dr. Elion. We have made available the DNA sequence of the Heineken-A yeast.

Thank you for the great honor John! Research around lager brewing yeast has accelerated greatly in the past years, notably due to CRISPR/Cas9 and Nanopore sequencing. Many questions remain open around its evolution and potential strain improvement, looking forward to the future!
