Cloned(Commentary)

Cloned (Comment) Organism
recombinant overexpression of strictly NADPH-dependent XR with mutated strictly NADP+-dependent XDH leading to increased bioethanol production and decreased xylitol accumulation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain D452-2 resulting in mutant strains SK-N1 to SK-N4 Scheffersomyces stipitis

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
additional information enzyme XDH is changed from NAD+-dependent to NADP+-dependent, xylitol accumulation is reduced and ethanol production improved using protein engineering for reversing the dependency of XDH from NAD+ to NADP+. Construction of a set of recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae carrying a mutated strictly NADPH-dependent XR and NADP+-dependent XDH genes with overexpression of endogenous xylulokinase (XK), effects of complete NADPH/NADP+ recycling on ethanol fermentation and xylitol accumulation, overview. The mutated strains demonstrate 0% and 10% improvement in ethanol production, and reduced xylitol accumulation, ranging 34.4-54.7% compared with the control strain Scheffersomyces stipitis

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
metabolism the redox balance between xylose reductase (XR) and xylitol dehydrogenase (XDH) is thought to be an important factor in effective xylose fermentation Scheffersomyces stipitis
physiological function strictly NADPH-dependent XR with mutated strict NADP+-dependent XDH are more effective in increasing bioethanol production and decreasing xylitol accumulation than the wild-type, overview Scheffersomyces stipitis
