Improving xylitol production by semi-rational engineering of xylitol dehydrogenase and optimizing cofactor regeneration in Gluconobacter oxydans. [PDF]
Background Xylitol, a widely used sugar substitute in food and medicine, can be produced through microbial bioconversion using glucose as the primary substrate. In this process, a critical factor limiting xylitol production is the relatively low activity

Optimization of CDT-1 and XYL1 expression for balanced co-production of ethanol and xylitol from cellobiose and xylose by engineered Saccharomyces cerevisiae. [PDF]
Production of ethanol and xylitol from lignocellulosic hydrolysates is an alternative to the traditional production of ethanol in utilizing biomass. However, the conversion efficiency of xylose to xylitol is restricted by glucose repression, causing a ...
