Pseudohyphozyma bogoriensis is gaining attention as a microbial source of high-value sophorolipids. We report here on its genomic sequence, which will improve our understanding of its metabolic pathways and allow the development of genome manipulation systems. PacBio sequencing was performed, yielding a 26-Mbp genome with 57% GC content and encoding 7,847 predicted proteins.

In this chapter, a step-by-step approach on how to transform non-conventional yeasts or fungi into platform organisms is described. The non-conventional glycolipid producing yeast Starmerella bombicola (and in some cases also Pseudohyphozyma bogoriensis) is used as a case study. And more specifically how to engineer it toward production of new-to-nature glycolipids like bola sophorolipids.

Vesicle-in-vesicle self-assembled containers, or vesosomes, are promising alternatives to liposomes because of their possible hierarchical encapsulation and high stability. We report herein the first example of sugar-based vesicles-in-vesicles, which we baptize glucosomes. These were prepared by using a natural microbial glycolipid (branched C22 sophorolipid) extracted from the culture medium of the yeast .
