Kerr et al. (2018), used SWATH-MS to understand the causes of the flocculation behavior of yeast and to identify differences between brewing strains. Flocculation is important at the end of fermentation, in which yeast cells adhere together to form large flocs. This phenotype is highly desired after fermentation, as it allows easy removal of yeast cells from the beer (Govender et al., 2011; Verstrepen et al., 2003). Differences in Flo10 and Flo1/5 proteins responsible for flocculation behaviors were found in the cell walls of industrially relevant yeast (Kerr et al., 2018). This study also identified YIQ9, a homolog to Cfg1 (Carlsbergensis foaming gene) (Blasco et al., 2012; Kerr et al., 2018), in brewing yeasts, which was absent in the laboratory strain BY4743. Further, large differences were found between strains at the level of the global whole cell proteome (Kerr et al., 2018).<ref name=kerr>Kerr ED, Fox GP, Schulz BL.
