Comparison of xylose fermentation by two high-performance engineered strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Economical biofuel production from plant biomass requires the conversion of both cellulose and hemicellulose in the plant cell wall. The best industrial fermentation organism, the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, has been developed to utilize xylose by heterologously expressing either a xylose reduct...
