Resumo

Glutathione is classified as a linear, water-soluble tripeptide, consisting of glutamic acid, L-cysteine and glycine being obtained through the synthesis of consecutive enzymatic reactions, which has innumerable intracellular metabolic functions, its main function is to avoid the cellular oxidation. Recent studies, indicate that GSH’s (glutathione) function disorder, is involved by the etiology of some diseases such as: liver cirrhosis, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, inflammation in the pancreas, diabetes, neurodegenerative diseases, among others. In addition, GSH stands out in the environmental area as an important biological parameter, had been being one of the most important indicators of oxidative stress. Considering these factors, the aim of the present research is to evaluate the glutathione production by Saccharomyces cerevisiae using agroindustry’s residues. Supplying better conditions to determinate glutathione production. By means of a CCD (Central composite design) 22 with four central points and four-star points, begetting twelve experiments, the fermentation tests were carried out. In the twelve batch experiments, the concentration of sucrose present in beet molasses (61 – 139 g. L- 1) and ammonium sulfate (NH4)2SO4 (1 – 12 g. L- 1) had been varied as a source of nitrogen. In order to settled the cellular concentration, sucrose, ethanol, glycerol, acetic acid (g. L-1) and glutathione (g. L- 1), aliquots of each experiment were withdrawn every 12 hours until the end of the fermentation process with 48 hours, carried out the proper of analyzed each metabolites. From the results obtained, a mathematical model had been established, in which, was predicted the behavior of cell growth and the fermentation products yield, with reference the relation by the best conditions for the glutathione formation presented. In addition, the qPCR(Real-time Polymerase Chain Reaction) technique was applied, to evaluate the efficiency of GSH1 and GSH2 genes. The best result had been observed with 24 hours of fermentation 7,61 g.L-1of glutathione formation which, in the experimental concentration condition of 61 g. L-1 of sucrose present in molasses and 6.5 g.L-1 of ammonium sulfate.
