Mechanism of Glucose Isomerization Using a Solid Lewis Acid Catalyst in Water [PDF]
^1H and ^(13)C NMR spectroscopy on isotopically labeled glucose reveals that in the presence of tin-containing zeolite Sn-Beta, the isomerization reaction of glucose in water proceeds by way of an intramolecular hydride shift (see scheme) rather than ...

Xylose (glucose) isomerase gene from the thermophile Thermus thermophilus: cloning, sequencing, and comparison with other thermostable xylose isomerases [PDF]
The xylose isomerase gene from the thermophile Thermus thermophilus was cloned by using a fragment of the Streptomyces griseofuscus gene as a probe. The complete nucleotide sequence of the gene was determined. T. thermophilus is the most thermophilic organism from which a xylose isomerase gene has been cloned and characterized.

Metabolic engineering of Escherichia coli for the production of xylonate. [PDF]
Xylonate is a valuable chemical for versatile applications. Although the chemical synthesis route and microbial conversion pathway were established decades ago, no commercial production of xylonate has been obtained so far.

Stepwise metabolic adaption from pure metabolization to balanced anaerobic growth on xylose explored for recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae [PDF]
BACKGROUND: To effectively convert lignocellulosic feedstocks to bio-ethanol anaerobic growth on xylose constitutes an essential trait that Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains normally do not adopt through the selective integration of a xylose assimilation ...
