Saccharomyces pastorianus CCY48-91 is a strain of bottom-fermenting brewing yeast most commonly used in Czech brewing. The main goal of this study is to sequence its genome and make this assembly publicly available. Because there are not many industrial yeast strains that have been sequenced, this data could be of value to other researchers.Saccharomyces pastorianus CCY48-91 is a strain of bottom-fermenting brewing yeast most commonly used in Czech brewing.
