  1. 1. Metabolic Control Points in Ethanolic Fermentation of Xylose by Saccharomyces cerevisiae

    Författare :David Runquist; Teknisk mikrobiologi; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Transcriptomics; Xylose reductase; Saccharomyces cerevisiae; Xylose; Ethanol; Transport; Lignocellulose;

    Sammanfattning : Baker’s yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisae, has been engineered to utilize the pentose sugar xylose present in lignocellulose biomass for the production of ethanol. Currently ethanol production from xylose is slow which limits the implementation of said strains in industrial production. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Improving initial xylose metabolism in recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae

    Författare :Márk Gárdonyi; Teknisk mikrobiologi; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Biokemisk teknik; Biochemical technology; xylose isomerase; xylose transport; xylose fermentation; Saccharomyces cerevisiae; metabolic engineering;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of the thesis is to improve the initial steps of xylose metabolism in recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae. S. cerevisiae takes up xylose of poor affinity by means of hexose transporters. Metabolic control analysis was used to investigate whether the low xylose utilisation rate is due to inefficient transport. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Ethanol production by recombinant and natural xylose-utilising yeasts

    Författare :Anna Eliasson; Teknisk mikrobiologi; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; lignocellulose; electron transport; redox balance; Pichia stipitis; Saccharomyces cerevisiae; ethanol; xylose; physiology; Microbiology; bacteriology; virology; mycology; Mikrobiologi; bakteriologi; virologi; mykologi;

    Sammanfattning : The xylose-fermenting capacity of recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae carrying XYL1 and XYL2 from Pichia stipitis, which encode xylose reductase (XR) and xylitol dehydrogenase (XDH), respectively, is poor due to high xylitol formation. Whereas, P. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Physiological Engineering of Xylose Utilisation by Recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae

    Författare :Nina Quednau Meinander; Teknisk mikrobiologi; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; protein burden; physiology; fed-batch fermentation; chemostat; recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae; ethanol; xylose; xylitol; Microbiology; bacteriology; virology; mycology; Mikrobiologi; bakteriologi; virologi; mykologi;

    Sammanfattning : Xylitol production by recombinant, XYL1-expressing Saccharomyces cerevisiae was investigated in fed-batch fermentation using different cosubstrates for growth, and generation of reduced cofactors and maintenance energy. Xylose was converted into xylitol with 1:1 yield. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Metabolic Engineering of Xylose-Utilising Saccharomyces cerevisiae Strains. A Closer Look at Recombinant Strains Based on the Xylose Reductase-Xylitol Dehydrogenase Pathway

    Författare :Marie Jeppsson; Teknisk mikrobiologi; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Microbiology; bacteriology; virology; mycology; Mikrobiologi; bakteriologi; virologi; mykologi; microarrays; cofactors; XK; XDH; XR; lignocellulose; xylose; ethanol; Saccharomyces cerevisiae; yeast;

    Sammanfattning : Saccharomyces cerevisiae produces ethanol efficiently from the hexose sugars in lignocellulose hydrolysates, but it can not utilise pentose sugars such as xylose and arabinose. Stable xylose-utilising S. LÄS MER
