Production of fuels and chemicals from xylose by engineered Saccharomyces cerevisiae: a review and perspective
Abstract Efficient xylose utilization is one of the most important pre-requisites for developing an economic microbial conversion process of terrestrial lignocellulosic biomass into biofuels and biochemicals. A robust ethanol producing yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been engineered with heterolo...
