Engineering the xylose metabolism in Schizochytrium sp. to improve the utilization of lignocellulose
Biotechnology for Biofuels and Bioproducts, 2022 Background Schizochytrium sp. is a heterotrophic, oil-producing microorganism that can efficiently produce lipids. However, the industrial production of bulk chemicals using Schizochytrium sp.

BMC Microbiology, 2009 Background L-arabitol dehydrogenase (LAD) and xylitol dehydrogenase (XDH) are involved in the degradation of L-arabinose and D-xylose, which are among the most abundant monosaccharides on earth. Previous data demonstrated that LAD and XDH not only differ

Evidence that the gene YLR070c of Saccharomyces cerevisiae encodes a xylitol dehydrogenase [PDF]
FEBS Letters, 1999 The open reading frame YLR070c of Saccharomyces cerevisiae has high sequence similarity to S. cerevisiae sorbitol dehydrogenase and to xylitol dehydrogenase of Pichia stipitis. Overexpression of this open reading frame in S. cerevisiae resulted in xylitol dehydrogenase activity. The enzyme is specific for NADH.

Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2011 Two novel endophytic yeast strains, WP1 and PTD3, isolated from within the stems of poplar (Populus) trees, were genetically characterized with respect to their xylose metabolism genes. These two strains, belonging to the species Rhodotorula graminis and

The potential use of xylitol in glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency anemia [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Investigation, 1971 NADP-linked xylitol dehydrogenase has been found to be present in human red blood cells. This enzyme activity is normal in most glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD)-deficient red cells. Xylitol was explored as a potential agent for treatment of hemolysis in patients with G6PD-deficiency.

Bioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry, 2003 Xylitol dehydrogenase (XDH) was purified from the cytoplasmic fraction of Gluconobacter oxydans ATCC 621. The purified enzyme reduced D-xylulose to xylitol in the presence of NADH with an optimum pH of around 5.0. Based on the determined NH2-terminal amino acid sequence, the gene encoding xdh was cloned, and its identity was confirmed by expression in ...
