Xylose: absorption, fermentation, and post-absorptive metabolism in the pig [PDF]
Xylose, as β-1,4-linked xylan, makes up much of the hemicellulose in cell walls of cereal carbohydrates fed to pigs. As inclusion of fibrous ingredients in swine diets continues to increase, supplementation of carbohydrases, such as xylanase, is of interest.

Comparative assessment of fermentative capacity of different xylose-consuming yeasts
Background Understanding the effects of oxygen levels on yeast xylose metabolism would benefit ethanol production. In this work, xylose fermentative capacity of Scheffersomyces stipitis, Spathaspora passalidarum, Spathaspora arborariae and Candida tenuis

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

The genetic regulatory network (GRN) plays a key role in controlling the response of the cell to changes in the environment. Although the structure of GRNs has been the subject of many studies, their large scale structure in the light of feedbacks from ...

The methionine salvage pathway in Bacillus subtilis [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Polyamine synthesis produces methylthioadenosine, which has to be disposed of. The cell recycles it into methionine through methylthioribose (MTR). Very little was known about MTR recycling for methionine salvage in Bacillus subtilis. RESULTS:

Regulation of Arabinose and Xylose Metabolism inEscherichia coli [PDF]
ABSTRACTBacteria such asEscherichia coliwill often consume one sugar at a time when fed multiple sugars, in a process known as carbon catabolite repression. The classic example involves glucose and lactose, whereE. coliwill first consume glucose, and only when it has consumed all of the glucose will it begin to consume lactose.

Engineering xylose metabolism in yeasts to produce biofuels and chemicals
Xylose is the second most abundant sugar in lignocellulosic biomass. Efficient and rapid xylose utilization is essential for the economic bioconversion of lignocellulosic biomass into value-added products. Building on previous pathway engineering efforts to enable xylose fermentation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, recent work has focused on reprogramming

Engineering of a Xylose Metabolic Pathway in Corynebacterium glutamicum [PDF]
ABSTRACT The aerobic microorganism Corynebacterium glutamicum was metabolically engineered to broaden its substrate utilization range to include the pentose sugar xylose, which is commonly found in agricultural residues and other lignocellulosic biomass.
