Different transcriptional responses of haploid and diploid S. cerevisiae strains to changes in cofactor preference of XR

Microbial Cell Factories, 2020
Background Xylitol accumulation is a major barrier for efficient ethanol production through heterologous xylose reductase-xylitol dehydrogenase (XR-XDH) pathway in recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

FEBS Letters, Volume 600, Issue 14, Page 2063-2076, July 2026.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

Temperature sensitivity of the induction of xylose reductase in Pachysolen tannophilus [PDF]

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, 1985
Pachysolen tannophilus is a yeast capable of fermenting xylose to ethanol. This organism is of interest due to its potential for converting the xylose found in agricultural and forestry residues to ethanol. From this study, it has been determined that when Pachysolen tannophilus is grown on xylose at 37/sup 0/C, xylose reductase activity is greatly ...

All You Can Eat Yeast: Substituting Hexose Transporters With AtSWEET7 Alleviates Glucose Repression, Enabling Simultaneous Utilization of Sugars in Renewable Feedstocks

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, Volume 123, Issue 6, Page 1518-1530, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Yeast sugar transporters have highly evolved for preferential glucose transport, a significant roadblock for utilizing non‐glucose sugars in renewable feedstocks such as lignocellulosic biomass. To enable simultaneous transport of multiple sugars, native hexose transporters were replaced by SWEET7p from Arabidopsis thaliana in engineered ...

Identification of Quantitative Trait Loci and Development of Molecular Markers Associated With Yield‐Related Traits in Pyropia haitanensis Through Genome‐Wide Association Studies

Modern Agriculture, Volume 4, Issue 1, June 2026.
To address the GWAS data scarcity in Pyropia haitanensis, 280 double‐haploid strains were phenotyped for 11 agronomic traits. GWAS analysis identified 454 candidate genes clustered on chromosome 4. Two molecular markers were validated: RPN5 (C/G SNP at Chr4:4,319,644) for thallus length, and DWF1 (T/G SNP at Chr4:4,485,590) for maturity days ...

Construction of a CO2‐Fixing Compartment Using a Shape‐Transforming DNA Scaffold

Chemistry – A European Journal, Volume 32, Issue 19, 22 May 2026.
A shape‐transforming DNA scaffold encapsulates RuBisCO within a controllable, self‐contacting compartment that mimics the carboxysome. The scaffold switches between open and closed states, enabling direct comparison of identical enzyme populations in different microenvironments.

Oxygenation influences xylose fermentation and gene expression in the yeast genera Spathaspora and Scheffersomyces

Biotechnology for Biofuels and Bioproducts
Background Cost-effective production of biofuels from lignocellulose requires the fermentation of d-xylose. Many yeast species within and closely related to the genera Spathaspora and Scheffersomyces (both of the order Serinales) natively assimilate and ...

Engineering xylose metabolism in thraustochytrid T18

Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2018
Background Thraustochytrids are heterotrophic, oleaginous, marine protists with a significant potential for biofuel production. High-value co-products can off-set production costs; however, the cost of raw materials, and in particular carbon, is a major ...
