Xylose metabolism by Candida shehatae in continuous culture

Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 1988
Xylose metabolism by Candida shehatae in continuous culture was examined under both fully-aerobic and semi-aerobic conditions. Growth did not occur in the absence of respiration. Under fully-aerobic conditions, the cell yield was constant at 0.51 g/g and the specific respiration rate Qo2was linearly related to the specific growth rate μ with a slope of

Metabolism of Xylose by the Lens of the Eye

1969
Interest in the metabolism of xylose by the lens stems from the finding, by Darby and Day in 1940, that this sugar when fed to weanling rats, rapidly causes cataract (an opaque lens). It had earlier been shown by Mitchell and Dodge in 1935 that galactose was similarly cataractogenic, and the third type of these so-called “sugar”cataracts is brought ...

Strain engineering of Saccharomyces cerevisiae for enhanced xylose metabolism

Biotechnology Advances, 2013
Efficient and rapid fermentation of all sugars present in cellulosic hydrolysates is essential for economic conversion of renewable biomass into fuels and chemicals. Xylose is one of the most abundant sugars in cellulosic biomass but it cannot be utilized by wild type Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which has been used for industrial ethanol production ...

Effects of NADH-preferring xylose reductase expression on ethanol production from xylose in xylose-metabolizing recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Journal of Biotechnology, 2012
Efficient conversion of xylose to ethanol is an essential factor for commercialization of lignocellulosic ethanol. To minimize production of xylitol, a major by-product in xylose metabolism and concomitantly improve ethanol production, Saccharomyces cerevisiae D452-2 was engineered to overexpress NADH-preferable xylose reductase mutant (XR(MUT)) and ...

Repeated-batch fermentations of xylose and glucose–xylose mixtures using a respiration-deficient Saccharomyces cerevisiae engineered for xylose metabolism

Journal of Biotechnology, 2010
Xylose-fermenting Saccharomyces strains are needed for commercialization of ethanol production from lignocellulosic biomass. Engineered Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains expressing XYL1, XYL2 and XYL3 from Pichia stipitis, however, utilize xylose in an oxidative manner, which results in significantly lower ethanol yields from xylose as compared to ...

d-Xylose metabolism by mutant strains of Candida sp.

2005
The first step in the metabolism of d-xylose by yeasts and mycelial fungi was found to be the reduction of d-xylose to xylitol, a reaction catalyzed by NADPH-linked d-xylose reductase. This step is followed by the oxidation of xylitol to d-xylulose which is catalyzed by NAD-linked xylitol dehydrogenase.

Yeast xylose metabolism and xylitol production: Dissertation

1994
A screening method was used for testing yeast strains in shake flask cultivations for their ability to convert xylose to xylitol. Of the 37 different strains studied by far the best were Candida guilliermondii C-6, C. tropicalis C-86 and C. tropicalis C-87.
