Engineering xylose metabolism in thraustochytrid T18

Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2018
Background Thraustochytrids are heterotrophic, oleaginous, marine protists with a significant potential for biofuel production. High-value co-products can off-set production costs; however, the cost of raw materials, and in particular carbon, is a major ...

Zur Kenntniss der Xylose [PDF]

Berichte der deutschen chemischen Gesellschaft, 1891
Wie vor einiger Zeit mitgeteilt wurde1), verbindet sich die Xylose leicht mit (Cyanwasserstoff und liefert dabei eine bisher unbekannte Hexonsaure, welche in Form ihres basischen Barytsalzes analysiert wurde. Aus dem Salze in Freiheit gesetzt, verwandelt sich die Saure beim Abdampfen ihrer wasserigen Losung in das schon kristallisierende Lacton C6H10O6.

Transcriptome profile of carbon catabolite repression in an efficient l-(+)-lactic acid-producing bacterium Enterococcus mundtii QU25 grown in media with combinations of cellobiose, xylose, and glucose.

PLoS ONE, 2020
Enterococcus mundtii QU25, a non-dairy lactic acid bacterium of the phylum Firmicutes, is capable of simultaneously fermenting cellobiose and xylose, and is described as a promising strain for the industrial production of optically pure l-lactic acid ...

Improvement of xylose fermentation in respiratory-deficient xylose-fermenting Saccharomyces cerevisiae [PDF]

Metabolic Engineering, 2012
Effective conversion of xylose in lignocelluloses is expected to reduce the production cost of second-generation biofuels significantly. The factors affecting xylose fermentation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae that express xylose reductase-xylitol dehydrogenase (XR-XDH) are studied.

Overview of Catalytic Properties of Fungal Xylose Reductases and Molecular Engineering Approaches for Improved Xylose Utilisation in Yeast

Applied Food Biotechnology, 2018
Background and Objective: Xylose reductases belong to the aldo-keto reductase family of enzymes, which catalyse the conversion of xylose to xylitol. Yeast xylose reductases have been intensively studied in the last two decades due to their significance ...

d-xylose accelerated death of pentose metabolizing Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Biotechnology for Biofuels and Bioproducts, 2023
Rapid and effective consumption of d-xylose by Saccharomyces cerevisiae is essential for cost-efficient cellulosic bioethanol production. Hence, heterologous d-xylose metabolic pathways have been introduced into S. cerevisiae.

Dietary intake of xylose impacts the transcriptome and proteome of tissues involved in xylose metabolism in swine

Frontiers in Animal Science, 2023
Xylose is a primary component of arabinoxylan in swine diets. As arabinoxylan is a significant component of fiber, and fiber is generally rising in practical pig diets globally, the study of arabinoxylan and xylose is of increasing interest. However, the

Minimize the Xylitol Production in Saccharomyces cerevisiae by Balancing the Xylose Redox Metabolic Pathway

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021
Xylose is the second most abundant sugar in lignocellulose, but it cannot be used as carbon source by budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Rational promoter elements engineering approaches were taken for efficient xylose fermentation in budding yeast.

Bulk segregant analysis by high-throughput sequencing reveals a novel xylose utilization gene from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. [PDF]

PLoS Genetics, 2010
Fermentation of xylose is a fundamental requirement for the efficient production of ethanol from lignocellulosic biomass sources. Although they aggressively ferment hexoses, it has long been thought that native Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains cannot ...
