Biochemical routes for uptake and conversion of xylose by microorganisms
Xylose is a major component of lignocellulose and the second most abundant sugar present in nature. Efficient utilization of xylose is required for the development of economically viable processes to produce biofuels and chemicals from biomass.

Transcriptome analysis of Aspergillus niger xlnR and xkiA mutants grown on corn Stover and soybean hulls reveals a highly complex regulatory network. [PDF]
BACKGROUND:Enzymatic plant biomass degradation by fungi is a highly complex process and one of the leading challenges in developing a biobased economy. Some industrial fungi (e.g.

As abundant carbohydrates in renewable feedstocks, such as pectin-rich and lignocellulosic hydrolysates, the pentoses arabinose and xylose are regarded as important substrates for production of biofuels and chemicals by engineered microbial hosts.

A mutated xylose reductase increases bioethanol production more than a glucose/xylose facilitator in simultaneous fermentation and co-fermentation of wheat straw [PDF]
Genetically engineered Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains are able to ferment xylose present in lignocellulosic biomass. However, better xylose fermenting strains are required to reach complete xylose uptake in simultaneous saccharification and co ...

Genetic Basis of Ammonium Toxicity Resistance in a Sake Strain of Yeast: A Mendelian Case. [PDF]
High concentrations of ammonium at physiological concentrations of potassium are toxic for the standard laboratory strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae In the original description of this metabolic phenotype, we focused on the standard laboratory strains ...

High capacity xylose transport in Candida intermedia PYCC 4715 [PDF]
Xylose-utilising yeasts were screened to identify strains with high xylose transport capacity. Among the fastest-growing strains in xylose medium, Candida intermedia PYCC 4715 showed the highest xylose transport capacity. Maximal specific growth rate was the same in glucose and xylose media (mu(max)=0.5 h-1, 30 degrees C).
