Glaciozyma antarctica PI12, is a psychrophilic yeast isolated from Antarctic sea. In this work, Expressed Sequence Tags (EST) from cells exposed to three different temperatures; 15 °C, 0 °C and −12 °C were generated to identify genes associated with cold adaptation. A total of 5376 clones from each...
