Production of mannosylglycerate in Saccharomyces cerevisiae by metabolic engineering and bioprocess optimization

Abstract Background Mannosylglycerate (MG) is one of the most widespread compatible solutes among marine microorganisms adapted to hot environments. This ionic solute holds excellent ability to protect proteins against thermal denaturation, hence a large number of biotechnological and clinical appli...
