Metabolic engineering for improved microbial pentose fermentation.
Global concern over the depletion of fossil fuel reserves, and the detrimental impact that combustion of these materials has on the environment, is focusing attention on initiatives to create sustainable approaches for the production and use of biofuels from various biomass substrates. The development of a low-cost, safe and eco-friendly process for the utilization of renewable resources to gen...
متن کاملMetabolic Engineering of Yeast for Xylose Uptake and Fermentation
Fuel ethanol production from plant biomass hydrolysates by the baker’s yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is of great economic and environmental significance. Costeffective production of ethanol from plant biomass should not only be based on the readily fermentable starch and sucrose fractions of plant carbohydrates, but also on the much more resistant lignocellulosic fractions. The utilization of ...
متن کاملMetabolic engineering for improved fermentation of pentoses by yeasts
The fermentation of xylose is essential for the bioconversion of lignocellulose to fuels and chemicals, but wild-type strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae do not metabolize xylose, so researchers have engineered xylose metabolism in this yeast. Glucose transporters mediate xylose uptake, but no transporter specific for xylose has yet been identified. Over-expressing genes for aldose (xylose) red...
متن کاملMetabolic engineering of Corynebacterium glutamicum for cadaverine fermentation.
Cadaverine, the expected raw material of polyamides, is produced by decarboxylation of L-lysine. If we could produce cadaverine from the cheapest sugar, and as a renewable resource, it would be an effective solution against global warming, but there has been no attempt to produce cadaverine from glucose by fermentation. We focused on Corynebacterium glutamicum, whose L-lysine fermentation abili...
متن کاملMetabolic engineering of Saccharomyces cerevisiae for lactose/whey fermentation.
Lactose is an interesting carbon source for the production of several bio-products by fermentation, primarily because it is the major component of cheese whey, the main by-product of dairy activities. However, the microorganism more widely used in industrial fermentation processes, the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, does not have a lactose metabolization system. Therefore, several metabolic en...
