General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function yeast cells expressing Oryza sativa MDHAR display enhanced tolerance to hydrogen peroxide by maintaining redox homoeostasis, proteostasis, and the ascorbate-like pool following the accumulation of antioxidant enzymes and molecules, metabolic enzymes, and molecular chaperones and their cofactors. The survival of MDHAR-expressing cells is greater than that of wild-type when exposed to high concentrations of ethanol. High MDHAR expression also improves the fermentative capacity of the yeast during glucose-based batch fermentation at 30°C. The alcohol yield of MDHAR-expressing transgenic yeast during fermentation is approximately 25% higher than that of wild-type yeast Oryza sativa
