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.

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.

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

Release of glucose repression on xylose utilization in Kluyveromyces marxianus to enhance glucose-xylose co-utilization and xylitol production from corncob hydrolysate

Microbial Cell Factories, 2019
Background Lignocellulosic biomass is one of the most abundant materials for biochemicals production. However, efficient co-utilization of glucose and xylose from the lignocellulosic biomass is a challenge due to the glucose repression in microorganisms.

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 ...
