| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, in order to realize a high-production/high-efficiency fermentation production system [methanol-biorefinery technology] using methanol as a starting material, we tried to understand the adaptation mechanism of C1 yeast to high methanol condition. We identified the xylose-5-phosphate synthesis pathway, a key pathway of methanol metabolism in C1 yeast, which was unknown well, and we examined metabolomic analysis of C1 yeast grown under high methanol adaptation conditions. We conclude that it is possible to breed C1 yeast adapted to higher methanol concentration by controlling the methanol metabolic flow in high methanol condition.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究では、C1酵母のメタノール代謝の解析から、「スーパーC1酵母」の育種の可能性を示すことができた。実際、現在、ランダム変異法により8％メタノール濃度にまで適応できるC1酵母を育種することに成功しているこれらデータはC1酵母のメタノール代謝制御の分子機構を明らかにするのみならず、その機能を活用した新たな「メタノール－バイオリファイナリー技術」の実現に向けて大きく前進する基盤を築けたと考えている。
