Metabolic engineering considerations for the heterologous expression of xylose-catabolic pathways in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Xylose, the second most abundant sugar in lignocellulosic biomass hydrolysates, can be fermented by Saccharomyces cerevisiae expressing one of two heterologous xylose pathways: a xylose oxidoreductase pathway and a xylose isomerase pathway. Depending on the type of the pathway, its optimization stra...
