ABSTRACT
Yeasts are microscopic organisms that are distributed in the biomes of the whole Earth, so some yeasts species exhibit
diverse metabolic adaptations that allow them to proliferate in extreme environments. Yeasts that inhabit the Antarctica
represent a relatively unexplored group of cold-adapted fungi. This review describes some of the metabolic adaptations
that allow yeasts to inhabit extreme environments such as those in the Antarctica. This review also addresses the
relevant considerations to know whether a yeast is extremophilic, as well as the criteria used to classify by its growth
and temperature. The role of carotenoid and lipid biosynthesis pathways to mitigate reactive oxygen species generated
by oxidative stress in pigmented and oleaginous yeasts including the
Rhodotorula genus is described. Further, this
review also considers the importance of basic research in oleaginous yeast from Antarctica and the development of
biotechnological applications.
