Engineering Xylose Isomerase and Reductase Pathways in Yarrowia lipolytica for Efficient Lipid Production [PDF]
Xylose is a common monosaccharide in lignocellulosic residues that Yarrowia lipolytica cannot naturally metabolise for lipid production and therefore, heterologous xylose metabolic pathways must be engineered in this yeast to facilitate its consumption ...

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

A novel d-xylose isomerase from the gut of the wood feeding beetle Odontotaenius disjunctus efficiently expressed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae [PDF]
Carbohydrate rich substrates such as lignocellulosic hydrolysates remain one of the primary sources of potentially renewable fuel and bulk chemicals. The pentose sugar d-xylose is often present in significant amounts along with hexoses.

Safety evaluation of the food enzyme xylose isomerase from the genetically modified Streptomyces rubiginosus strain DP‐Pzn37 [PDF]
The food enzyme is a d‐xylose aldose‐ketose‐isomerase (EC 5.3.1.5) produced with the genetically modified Streptomyces rubiginosus strain DP‐Pzn37 by Danisco US Inc. Although the production strain contains antibiotic resistance genes, the food enzyme was

Data of the crystal structure of xylose isomerase from Streptomyces avermitilisProtein Data BankZENODO [PDF]
Xylose isomerase (XI; also known as glucose isomerase) catalyzes the conversion of D-glucose and D-xylose to D-fructose and D-xylulose, respectively. XI is widely used in various industries, such as high-fructose corn syrup and bioethanol production. The
