Draft Genome Sequence of the Oleaginous Yeast Cryptococcus curvatus ATCC 20509.

Cryptococcus curvatus ATCC 20509 is a commonly used nonmodel oleaginous yeast capable of converting a variety of carbon sources into fatty acids. Here, we present the draft genome sequence of this popular organism to provide a means for more in-depth studies of its fatty acid production potential.

Draft Genome Sequence of Cryptococcus terricola JCM 24523, an Oleaginous Yeast Capable of Expressing Exogenous DNA.

Cryptococcus terricola JCM 24523 has recently been identified as an oleaginous yeast capable of converting starch into fatty acids. This draft genome sequence provides a platform for elucidating its fatty acid production potential and supporting comparisons with other oleaginous species.
