Effect of enhanced xylose reductase activity on xylose consumption and product distribution in xylose-fermenting recombinant [PDF]
FEMS Yeast Research, 2003 Recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae TMB3001, harboring the Pichia stipitis genes XYL1 and XYL2 (xylose reductase and xylitol dehydrogenase, respectively) and the endogenous XKS1(xylulokinase), can convert xylose to ethanol. About 30% of the consumed xylose, however, is excreted as xylitol.

Biochemical routes for uptake and conversion of xylose by microorganisms
Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2020 Xylose is a major component of lignocellulose and the second most abundant sugar present in nature. Efficient utilization of xylose is required for the development of economically viable processes to produce biofuels and chemicals from biomass.

Rational and evolutionary engineering approaches uncover a small set of genetic changes efficient for rapid xylose fermentation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Economic bioconversion of plant cell wall hydrolysates into fuels and chemicals has been hampered mainly due to the inability of microorganisms to efficiently co-ferment pentose and hexose sugars, especially glucose and xylose, which are the most ...

Heteropolysaccharide Formation by Arthrobacter viscosus Grown on Xylose and Xylose Oligosaccharides [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1992 Arthrobacter viscosus NRRL B-1973 produces its viscous extracellular polysaccharides (EPS) when grown on media containing xylose or enzymatic xylan hydrolysates. Crude EPS formation from xylose averaged 12 g/liter when initial culture pH was adjusted to 8.0 and total nitrogen was limited to 0.03%.

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.
