Optimization of CDT-1 and XYL1 expression for balanced co-production of ethanol and xylitol from cellobiose and xylose by engineered Saccharomyces cerevisiae. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Production of ethanol and xylitol from lignocellulosic hydrolysates is an alternative to the traditional production of ethanol in utilizing biomass. However, the conversion efficiency of xylose to xylitol is restricted by glucose repression, causing a ...

Protein acetylation regulates xylose metabolism during adaptation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2021 Background As the second most abundant polysaccharide in nature, hemicellulose can be degraded to xylose as the feedstock for bioconversion to fuels and chemicals.

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.
