Abstract
The n-propanol produced by Saccharomyces cerevisiae has a remarkable effect on the taste and flavor of Chinese Baijiu. The n-propanol metabolism-related genes were deleted to evaluate the role in the synthesis of n-propanol to ascertain the key genes and pathways for the production of n-propanol by S. cerevisiae. The results showed that CYS3, GLY1, ALD6, PDC1, ADH5, and YML082W were the key genes affecting the n-propanol metabolism in yeast. The n-propanol concentrations of α5ΔGLY1, α5ΔCYS3, and α5ΔALD6 increased by 121.75, 22.75, and 17.78%, respectively, compared with α5. The n-propanol content of α5ΔPDC1, α5ΔADH5, and α5ΔYML082W decreased by 24.98, 8.35, and 8.44%, respectively, compared with α5. The contents of intermediate metabolites were measured, and results showed that the mutual transformation of glycine and threonine in the threonine pathway and the formation of propanal from 2-ketobutyrate were the core pathways for the formation of n-propanol. Additionally, YML082W played important role in the synthesis of n-propanol by directly producing 2-ketobutyric acid through l-homoserine. This study provided valuable insights into the n-propanol synthesis in S. cerevisiae and the theoretical basis for future optimization of yeast strains in Baijiu making.

Abstract
Endogenous hydrogen sulfide mediates anti-aging benefits of dietary restriction (DR). However, it is unclear how H2S production is regulated by pathways related to DR. Due to the importance of mTORC1 pathway in DR, we investigated the effects of Sch9, a yeast homolog of mammalian S6K1 and a major substrate of mTORC1 on H2S production in yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We found that inhibition of the mTORC1-Sch9 pathway by SCH9 deletion, rapamycin or myriocin treatment resulted in a dramatic decrease in H2S production. Although deficiency of SCH9 did not alter the intracellular level of methionine, the intracellular level of cysteine increased in Δsch9 cells. The expression of CYS3 and CYS4, two transsulfuration pathway genes encoding cystathionine gamma-lyase (CGL) and cystathionine beta-synthase (CBS), were also decreased under mTORC1-Sch9 inhibition. Overexpression of CYS3 or CYS4 in Δsch9 cells or WT cells treated with rapamycin rescued the deficiency of H2S production. Finally, we also observed a reduction in H2S production and lowering of both mRNA and protein levels of CGL and CBS in cultured human cells treated with rapamycin to reduce mTORC1 pathway activity. Thus, our findings reveal a probably conserved mechanism in which H2S production by the transsulfuration pathway is regulated by mTORC1-Sch9 signaling.

Abstract
Toxicity of selenomethionine, an organic derivative of selenium widely used as supplement in human diets, was studied in the model organism Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Several DNA repair-deficient strains hypersensitive to selenide displayed wild-type growth rate properties in the presence of selenomethionine indicating that selenide and selenomethionine exert their toxicity via distinct mechanisms. Cytotoxicity of selenomethionine decreased when the extracellular concentration of methionine or S-adenosylmethionine was increased. This protection resulted from competition between the S- and Se-compounds along the downstream metabolic pathways inside the cell. By comparing the sensitivity to selenomethionine of mutants impaired in the sulfur amino acid pathway, we excluded a toxic effect of Se-adenosylmethionine, Se-adenosylhomocysteine, or of any compound in the methionine salvage pathway. Instead, we found that selenomethionine toxicity is mediated by the trans-sulfuration pathway amino acids selenohomocysteine and/or selenocysteine. Involvement of superoxide radicals in selenomethionine toxicity in vivo is suggested by the hypersensitivity of a Δsod1 mutant strain, increased resistance afforded by the superoxide scavenger manganese, and inactivation of aconitase. In parallel, we showed that, in vitro, the complete oxidation of the selenol function of selenocysteine or selenohomocysteine by dioxygen is achieved within a few minutes at neutral pH and produces superoxide radicals. These results establish a link between superoxide production and trans-sulfuration pathway seleno-amino acids and emphasize the importance of the selenol function in the mechanism of organic selenium toxicity.
