Abstract:

Recent studies have revealed the feasibility of sodium acetate as a potentially novel inhibitor/stressor relevant to the fermentation from neutralized lignocellulosic hydrolysates. This mini-review focuses on the toxicity of sodium acetate, which is composed of both sodium and acetate ions, and on the involved cellular responses that it elicits, particularly via the high-osmolarity glycerol (HOG) pathway, the Rim101 pathway, the P-type ATPase sodium pumps Ena1/2/5, and the ubiquitin ligase Rsp5 with its adaptors. Increased understanding of cellular responses to sodium acetate would improve our understanding of how cells respond not only to different stimuli but also to composite stresses induced by multiple components (e.g., sodium and acetate) simultaneously. Moreover, unraveling the characteristics of specific stresses under industrially related conditions and the cellular responses evoked by these stresses would be a key factor in the industrial yeast strain engineering toward the increased productivity of not only bioethanol but also advanced biofuels and valuable chemicals that will be in demand in the coming era of bio-based industry.
