    Revealing Potential Genes Affecting Flocculation and/or Viability of Saccharomyces pastorianus by Comparative Genomic Analysis

    Yeast flocculation and viability are critical factors in beer production. Adequate flocculation of yeast at the end of fermentation helps to reduce off-flavors and cell separation, while high viability is beneficial for yeast reuse. In this study, we used comparative genomics to analyze the genome information on Saccharomyces pastorianus W01, and its spontaneous mutant W02 with appropriate weakened flocculation ability (better off-flavor reduction performance) and unwanted decreased viability, to investigate the effect of different gene expressions on yeast flocculation or/and viability. Our results indicate that knockout of CNE1, CIN5, SIN3, HP-3, YPR170W-B, and SCEPF1_0274000100 and overexpression of CNE1 and ALD2 significantly decreased the flocculation ability of W01, while knockout of EPL1 increased the flocculation ability of W01. Meanwhile, knockout of CIN5, YPR170W-B, OST5, SFT1, SCEPF1_0274000100, and EPL1 and overexpression of SWC3, ALD2, and HP-2 decreased the viability of W01. CIN5, EPL1, SCEPF1_0274000100, ALD2, and YPR170W-B have all been shown to affect yeast flocculation ability and viability
