Bread making with Saccharomyces cerevisiae CEN.PK113-5D expressing lipase A from Bacillus subtilis: Leavening characterisation and aroma enhancement

2015

Summary Lipase A from Bacillus subtilis was expressed in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae CEN.PK113-5D strain as a cell wall-immobilised enzyme. The recombinant yeast was used in bread making to test the effect of lipase A on the bread properties such as rheological and aromatic properties. The results were compared to the not transformed strain and the commercial baker's yeast. The recombinant strain resulted a good leavening agent comparable to the commercial baker's yeasts provided 1% sucrose was added to the dough. Whereas, during the leavening, the trend of the rheological properties (cohesivness, gumminess and rigidity) differed from the commercial and the nontransformed (NT) strain…
