  • Title: Bioethanol production from xylose by recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae expressing xylose reductase, NADP(+)-dependent xylitol dehydrogenase, and xylulokinase.
    Author: Matsushika A, Watanabe S, Kodaki T, Makino K, Sawayama S.
    Journal: J Biosci Bioeng; 2008 Mar; 105(3):296-9. PubMed ID: 18397783.
    Abstract:
    We constructed a set of recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains with xylose-fermenting ability. A recombinant S. cerevisiae strain D-XR/ARSdR/XK, in which protein engineered NADP(+)-dependent XDH was expressed, showed 40% increased ethanol production and 23% decrease in xylitol excretion as compared with the reference strain D-XR/XDH/XK expressing the wild-type XDH.
