Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Isobutanol is a fusel alcohol that can be produced microbially for use as a biofuel or upgraded into sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). A key enzyme in the isobutanol biosynthetic pathway is 2‐ketoacid decarboxylase (KDC), which irreversibly decarboxylates 2‐ketoisovalerate (KIV) to yield isobutyraldehyde.

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Yeast sugar transporters have highly evolved for preferential glucose transport, a significant roadblock for utilizing non‐glucose sugars in renewable feedstocks such as lignocellulosic biomass. To enable simultaneous transport of multiple sugars, native hexose transporters were replaced by SWEET7p from Arabidopsis thaliana in engineered ...

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Although recent literature on the circular economy (CE) has highlighted the important role of ecosystems, there is still limited understanding of the main themes that characterize circular ecosystems. This study addresses this gap by combining a comprehensive topic modeling analysis employing latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA) with a systematic

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2016 Plant biomass is a large source of fermentable sugars for the synthesis of bioproducts using engineered microbes. These sugars are stored as cell wall polymers, mainly cellulose and hemicellulose, and are embedded with lignin, which makes their enzymatic

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The agri‐food industry faces major sustainability challenges, requiring a shift in companies' approach. Circular economy principles offer a promising path by enhancing resource efficiency, reducing waste, and valorizing by‐products. However, the integration of sustainability and circularity practices remains limited, especially in developing ...
