Global distribution of IRC7 alleles in Saccharomyces cerevisiae populations: a genomic and phenotypic survey within the wine clade.
Title: Global distribution of IRC7 alleles in Saccharomyces cerevisiae populations: a genomic and phenotypic survey within the wine clade.
allelic variation of IRC7 not only affects the release of thiols but modulates the formation of negative volatile sulfur compounds from the cysteine.
Title: Inactivating Mutations in Irc7p Are Common in Wine Yeasts, Attenuating Carbon-Sulfur β-Lyase Activity and Volatile Sulfur Compound Production.
While IRC7 has been identified as playing a critical role in converting cysteine conjugates to volatile thiols that are important in wine aroma, its biological role in yeast cells is likely to involve regulation of cysteine and redox homeostasis.
Title: The IRC7 gene encodes cysteine desulphydrase activity and confers on yeast the ability to grow on cysteine as a nitrogen source.
