A comparative analysis of NADPH supply strategies in Saccharomyces cerevisiae: Production of d-xylitol from d-xylose as a case study

Metabolic Engineering Communications
Enhancing the supply of the redox cofactor NADPH in metabolically engineered cells is a critical target for optimizing the synthesis of many product classes, such as fatty acids or terpenoids. In S.

Construction of a CO2‐Fixing Compartment Using a Shape‐Transforming DNA Scaffold

Chemistry – A European Journal, Volume 32, Issue 19, 22 May 2026.
A shape‐transforming DNA scaffold encapsulates RuBisCO within a controllable, self‐contacting compartment that mimics the carboxysome. The scaffold switches between open and closed states, enabling direct comparison of identical enzyme populations in different microenvironments.

Comparison of the xylose reductase-xylitol dehydrogenase and the xylose isomerase pathways for xylose fermentation by recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Microbial Cell Factories, 2007
Background Two heterologous pathways have been used to construct recombinant xylose-fermenting Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains: i) the xylose reductase (XR) and xylitol dehydrogenase (XDH) pathway and ii) the xylose isomerase (XI) pathway.

Expression of xylitol dehydrogenase gene xyl2 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae [PDF]

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2018
Xylitol is oxidized to xylulose under the catalytic action of xylitol dehydrogenase, so xylitol dehydrogenase is at an important position in the metabolism of wood pond. The paper discusses the extraction, structure, pear flower properties and coenzyme modification of xylitol dehydrogenase, and studies the cloning and expression of xylitol ...

Dual relationships of xylitol and alcohol dehydrogenases in families of two protein types [PDF]

FEBS Letters, 1993
Xylitol dehydrogenase encoded by gene XYL2 from Pichia stipitis is a member of the medium‐chain alcohol dehydrogenase family, as evidenced by the domain organization and a distant homology (24% residue identity with the human class Iγ1 alcohol dehydrogenase).

Oxygenation influences xylose fermentation and gene expression in the yeast genera Spathaspora and Scheffersomyces

Biotechnology for Biofuels and Bioproducts
Background Cost-effective production of biofuels from lignocellulose requires the fermentation of d-xylose. Many yeast species within and closely related to the genera Spathaspora and Scheffersomyces (both of the order Serinales) natively assimilate and ...
