  • Title: Heterologous expression, purification, and characterization of xylose reductase from Candida shehatae.
    Author: Wang X, Fang B, Luo J, Li W, Zhang L.
    Journal: Biotechnol Lett; 2007 Sep; 29(9):1409-12. PubMed ID: 17653624.
    Abstract:
    The xylose reductase (XR) gene (xyl1) from Candida shehatae was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli, and purified as a His(6)-tagged fusion protein. The recombinant XR had K(m) values for NADH than NADPH of 150 microM and 20 microM, respectively. The optimal reaction was at pH 6.5 and 35 degrees C. The enzyme was specific for D-xylese.
