Abstract
Saccharomyces cerevisiae has good reproductive ability in both haploid and diploid forms, a pyruvate decarboxylase plays an important role in S. cerevisiae cell metabolism. In this study, pdc1 and pdc5 double knockout strains of S. cerevisiae H14-02 (MATa type) and S. cerevisiae H5-02 (MATα type) were obtained by the Cre/loxP technique. The effects of the deletion of pdc1 and pdc5 on the metabolites of the two haploid S. cerevisiae strains were consistent. In S. cerevisiae H14-02, the ethanol conversion decreased by 30.19%, the conversion of glycerol increased by 40.005%, the concentration of acetic acid decreased by 43.54%, the concentration of acetoin increased by 12.79 times, and the activity of pyruvate decarboxylase decreased by 40.91% compared to those in the original H14 strain. The original S. cerevisiae haploid strain H14 produced a small amount of acetoin but produced very little 2,3-butanediol. However, S. cerevisiae H14-02 produced 1.420 ± 0.063 g/L 2,3-BD. This study not only provides strain selection for obtaining haploid strains with a high yield of 2,3-BD but also lays a foundation for haploid S. cerevisiae to be used as a new tool for genetic research and breeding programs.
