Engineered Escherichia coli capable of co-utilization of cellobiose and xylose
Enzyme and Microbial Technology, 2012 Natural ability to ferment the major sugars (glucose and xylose) of plant biomass is an advantageous feature of Escherichia coli in biofuel production. However, excess glucose completely inhibits xylose utilization in E. coli and decreases yield and productivity of fermentation due to sequential utilization of xylose after glucose.

Structural insight into D-xylose utilization by xylose reductase from Scheffersomyces stipitis. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2018 AbstractLignocellulosic biomass, of which D-xylose accounts for approximately 35% of the total sugar, has attracted attention as a future energy source for biofuel. To elucidate molecular mechanism of D-xylose utilization, we determined the crystal structure of D-xylose reductase from Schefferzomyces stipitis (SsXR) at a 1.95 Å resolution.

D-Xylose Utilization by Saccharomyces cerevisiae [PDF]
Microbiology, 1989 Although it is generally accepted that Saccharomyces cerevisiae is unable to assimilate D-xylose, four strains were found to utilize xylose aerobically at different efficiencies in the presence of a mixture of substrates. The degree of D-xylose utilization by S. cerevisiae ATCC 26602 depended upon the presence of other substrates or yeast extract.

Engineering xylose utilization in Yarrowia lipolytica by understanding its cryptic xylose pathway. [PDF]
Biotechnol Biofuels, 2016 The oleaginous yeast, Yarrowia lipolytica, has been utilized as an industrial host for about 60 years for various applications. Recently, the metabolic engineering of this host has become increasingly popular due to its ability to accumulate lipids as well as improvements made toward developing new genetic tools. Y.

Characterization of the xylose-transporting properties of yeast hexose transporters and their influence on xylose utilization [PDF]
Microbiology, 2002 For an economically feasible production of ethanol from plant biomass by microbial cells, the fermentation of xylose is important. As xylose uptake might be a limiting step for xylose fermentation by recombinant xylose-utilizing Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells a study of xylose uptake was performed.
