Gap Analysis of Metabolic Conversions of Off‐Flavors and Antinutrients in Plant‐Based Substrates

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT To drastically reduce the carbon footprint of the food production chain, a major shift towards alternatives to conventional meat and dairy products is required. The use of plant‐based proteins is a promising route, but it also comes with challenges: Plant‐based proteins often contain antinutritional factors and off‐flavors, which can ...

Increased expression of the oxidative pentose phosphate pathway and gluconeogenesis in anaerobically growing xylose-utilizing Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Microbial Cell Factories, 2009
Background Fermentation of xylose to ethanol has been achieved in S. cerevisiae by genetic engineering. Xylose utilization is however slow compared to glucose, and during anaerobic conditions addition of glucose has been necessary for cellular growth. In

Perspectives for Advancing Biotechnological Succinic Acid Production

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 5, May 2026.
Succinic acid is an important molecule for sustainable chemical manufacturing, but its industrial production faces high costs and sustainability challenges, which are linked to feedstocks and excessive acid/base consumption. This opinion explores production routes based on next‐generation feedstocks and low‐pH fermentations to inspire novel cost ...

Zebrafish as a model for Catel–Manzke syndrome—identification and characterization of the zebrafish TGDS ortholog

The FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 8, Page 2248-2269, April 2026.
Zebrafish Tgds, when expressed as a recombinant protein, catalyzes the dehydration of UDP‐D‐glucose, the initial step in the formation of 6‐deoxyhexoses. Corresponding Tgds mutations found in Catel–Manzke syndrome patients lead to reduced enzymatic activity and stability.
