Abstract
Yeast as unicellular organism, has shown multiple application due to exhibition of noble ability in its cells. And engineered yeast has found more suitability in bioprocesses application as well as adverse conditions adaptation. Different types of yeast strains showed their best capability to adapt the salt and sugar rich environment with their optimal growth capability. These strains, used as suitable and novel cell factories for production of value added bio-products (via utilization of fermentation processes) and also for different types of bioprocesses. Application of yeast species in biotechnology field, enhanced in current periods, due to conversion of its wild to engineer strain, suitable for bioprocesses utilization and also for different types of biochemical synthesis. Different yeast species identified due to known their genetic, regulatory mechanism and also competitive metabolic pathways. In this regards, different type of engineering approaches (for genetic or pathways modification), applied to construct the optimal and suitable cell factories for different types of bioprocesses as utilized in different sectors (foods with mineral or protein rich, bread, brewing, cosmetics, chemical, agriculture, pharmacy and distillation industries) via improving the quality of bio-products.

Introduction
Yeast strains (i.e. These efforts can provide the complete knowledge of genetic components or its regulatory mechanism in yeast strains via helping in understanding of yeast biological behaviors. A lot of bio-products such as protein drugs (human insulin and vaccines against papillomavirus and hepatitis) or fine chemicals (lactic acid or n-butanol) are known to synthesize from engineered yeast ( Baker's‐yeast ( In this chapter, author will elaborate more examples of yeast mediated products and bioprocesses development via focusing the key points of their regulation and optimization, utilized for biotechnological application. These are given below. HPLC analyses have applied to determine relative concentrations of anthocyanins, tannins and pigmented polymers in commercial-scale replicated fermentation. These compounds in red wines are involved during ageing process at small scale model ferments and also in chemical model reactions. Anthocyanin degradation and pigmented polymer formation rate can determine the anthocyanin stability in wine aging process. Analyte profiles and reaction kinetics can demonstrate the condensed tannins and anthocyanins for the formation of pigmented polymers. Maximal formation of pigmented polymers has been shown in presence of fermenting yeast via presence of soluble yeast metabolites in the condensation reaction of anthocyanins with tannins. Commercial-scale replicated fermentation can be confirmed by yeast-mediated biotransformation reactions via employing purified substrates, and by chemical model reactions Fossil fuels produced huge quantity of carbon dioxide emission in our environment and also showed lack of sustainability. So, biofuel can motivate us as energy alternative and their development and production is needed to develop as energy option source for world requirement and currently about 80% of crude oil is used as liquid transportation fuels. We need to develop efficient and effective biotechnological processes for the biosynthesis of liquid transportation fuels. Recently dominating biofuel is bioethanol that produced via yeast fermentation. And due to development of efficient new and modified yeast strains, more quantity of ethanol can be produced as alternative biofuels with exhibition of properties close to diesel and jet fuels that can be achieved in optimized growth condition on feed stocks without competing with food production. Advanced biofuels, used as drop-in fuels in existing internal combustion engines in most of our transport means. Some challenges (i.e. inhibition of ethanol production at high temperature or high ethanol concentration and also poor ability for pentose sugars fermentation) are reported for yeast mediated fermentation. And currently various types of yeast strains (i.e. hybrid, engineered, recombinant or wild-type) have been applied for ethanol production via expressing capability to directly ferment simple sugars into ethanol. Various types of feedstocks (i.e. non food source) have been converted to fermentable sugars that fermented to ethanol. The pretreatment, hydrolysis and fermentation are common processes involve in ethanol production. Temperature, sugar concentration, pH, fermentation time, agitation rate, and inoculum size has reported as critical factor effecting the bioethanol synthesis during fermentation and these can affect the efficiency and productivity of ethanol The immobilized yeast cells (under mild condition) can influence the productivity of ethanol by several factors (surface characteristics of the carrier, pore size, water content, hydrophilicity and magnetism) and these strain can maintain the activity of the cells for several cycles. Immobilized yeast cells have shown more effectiveness at higher cell density per volume of reactor. It has other benefits such as easier separation from the reaction medium, higher substrate conversion, less inhibition by products, shorter reaction time and control of cell replication Ethanol is synthesized from molasses, starch based substrate, sweet sorghum cane extract, lignocellulose, and other wastes. Lignocellulosic hydrolysates can contain more or less amount of inhibitors depending on pretreatment processes which can be reduced by utilization of repeated sequential fermentation, treatment with reducing agents and activated charcoal. Other detoxification methods are also reported that are overliming, anion exchanger, evaporation, enzymatic treatment with peroxidase and laccase, in situ detoxification by fermenting microbes and different extraction methods. Co-culturing Engineering in subunit of Rpb7 of RNAP II in yeast strain ( Mutant Improvements of n-butanol production are reported from glucose substrate consumption with yeast strain via utilization acetoacetyl-CoA-derived pathway. Improved n-butanol pathway was made by various isoenzymes of different pathway reactions and n-butanol titers (15 mg.L-1) in synthetic medium after 74 h was reported. In n-butanol pathway, acetyl-coenzyme A (acetyl-CoA) and most intermediates were bound to coenzyme A (CoA) for increased CoA synthesis by over-expression of the pantothenate kinase coA gene (i.e. from Major contribution of Acetone–butanol–ethanol (ABE) pathway has been reported for butanol production via mediation of specific mutants yeast (after gene deletion) and it shown significant impact on butanol levels. Threonine-based ketoacid (TBK) pathway is reported for endogenous mode of butanol synthesis in In anaerobic fermentation engineered Two lactic-acid-producing strains of Synthetic Chromosome Rearrangement and Modification by LoxPsym-mediated Evolution (SCRaMbLE) is reported as a global recombination system, utilized for synthetic chromosomes during design to allow inducible genome evolution. Now L-SCRaMbLE is used as tool, utilized for light-controlled Cre-mediated recombination in yeast. It has boosted the potential for further customization with facile application in yeast genome re-engineering project Sc2.0 or in other recombination-based systems Cloning by homologous recombination (HR) is reported in most of yeast strains. Yeast-cloning cassette (YCC) has found to contain the 2-micron origin of replication (2 μm ori) and alos the Addition of sugar is found to favourable for biotransformation process, as medium and high concentration of glucose can facilitate the regeneration of enzyme cofactors. Small amounts of organic solvents addition to the medium has also found to succeed in biotransformation process. And ethanol, glycerol, hexane and isopropanol are used in various proportions. For carbonyl reductase, isopropanol can be used as a co-substrate for the regeneration of NAD+ or NADP+ and it increased substrate solubility
