Posttranslational modifications of heterologous proteins expressed in Nicotiana benthamiana

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 1, Page 44-54, January 2026.
Summary The success of Nicotiana benthamiana as a workhorse for heterologous protein production is closely linked to its accessibility and tolerance to genetic manipulation, allowing efficient engineering of posttranslational protein modifications (PTMs) that are critical for the function and stability of heterologous proteins.

Duckweeds: Model organisms for research on plant sterols and steroids

Plant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 1, Page 18-30, January 2026.
Duckweeds (Lemnaceae), the fastest‐growing angiosperms and promising vegan protein source, offer a powerful model to address key questions in plant physiology. This article highlights their potential for dissecting the biosynthesis and function of phytosterols, sterol conjugates, brassinosteroids, and specialized steroidal metabolites, such as ...

D-Lyxose as a substrate for Streptomyces D-xylose isomerase [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1978
Results are presented which show that the D-xylose isomerases present in Streptomyces olivaceus and Streptomyces phaeochromogenes NRRL B-3559 are incapable of utilizing D-lyxose as a substrate. The implications of these findings as related to the use of D-lyxose in the selection of constitutive mutants are discussed.

Heterologous expression of Spathaspora passalidarum xylose reductase and xylitol dehydrogenase genes improved xylose fermentation ability of Aureobasidium pullulans

Microbial Cell Factories, 2018
Background Aureobasidium pullulans is a yeast-like fungus that can ferment xylose to generate high-value-added products, such as pullulan, heavy oil, and melanin.

Structural Analysis of Xylose Isomerase from Streptomyces avermitilis

Crystals
Xylose isomerase (XI, also known as glucose isomerase) is an oxidoreductase that interconverts aldoses and ketoses. XI catalyzes the reversible isomerization of D-glucose and D-xylose into D-fructose and D-xylulose, respectively.

Comparative xylose metabolism among the Ascomycetes C. albicans, S. stipitis and S. cerevisiae.

PLoS ONE, 2013
The ascomycetes Candida albicans, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Scheffersomyces stipitis metabolize the pentose sugar xylose very differently. S. cerevisiae fails to grow on xylose, while C. albicans can grow, and S.

Exploring the xylose paradox in Saccharomyces cerevisiae through in vivo sugar signalomics of targeted deletants

Microbial Cell Factories, 2019
Background There have been many successful strategies to implement xylose metabolism in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, but no effort has so far enabled xylose utilization at rates comparable to that of glucose (the preferred sugar of this yeast). Many studies

Positive selection of efficient ethanol producers from xylose at 45 °C in the yeast Ogataea polymorpha

Scientific Reports
This research presents a method for the positive selection of mutants with improved xylose and L-arabinose fermentation in the thermotolerant, naturally xylose-utilizing yeast Ogataea polymorpha which is based on isolation of the mutants growing on L ...

Overexpression of Transketolase Relieves xylA Repression and Enhances Xylose Utilization in Saccharomyces cerevisiae During Mixed Sugar Fermentation

GCB Bioenergy
Metabolic engineering of Saccharomyces cerevisiae has enabled xylose‐fermenting yeast strains. However, the bioavailability dilemma of xylose has become the core bottleneck restricting the economy of lignocellulose.
