GENE ENCODING CELL WALL MANNOPROTEIN AND USE OF THE SAME

摘要

A gene encoding a cell wall mannoprotein and use of the same. In particular, a brewing yeast for producing an alcoholic drink showing lessened haze formation, an alcoholic drink produced by using this yeast, a method of producing the same and so on. More specifically speaking, a yeast wherein the expression amount of ScCWP1 gene encoding Cwp1p, which is a cell wall mannoprotein of brewing yeasts, or nonScCwp1 gene specifically characteristic to beer yeast is elevated so as to lessen haze in a product, a method of producing an alcoholic drink by using this yeast and so on.
