Understanding xylose isomerase from Burkholderia cenocepacia: insights into structure and functionality for ethanol production

Abstract The inability of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae to produce ethanol from xylose has hampered the biofuel production from lignocellulosic biomass. However, prior studies reveal that functional expression of xylose isomerase (XI) from Burkholderia cenocepacia (XylABc) in S. cerevisiae has...
