Xylose is the second most abundant sugar in lignocellulosic hydrolysates. Transformation of
xylose into valuable chemicals, such as plant natural products, is a feasible and sustainable …

Yeast productivity in lignocellulosic ethanol fermentation is clearly impeded by stress.
Enhancing the robustness of xylose-fermenting yeast is important for improving …

Xylose is the second most abundant monomeric sugar in plant biomass. Consequently,
xylose catabolism is an ecologically important trait for saprotrophic organisms, as well as a …

Xylose is the second most abundant carbohydrate in nature, mostly present in
lignocellulosic material, and representing an appealing feedstock for molecule …

Background The cost-effective production of second-generation bioethanol, which is made
from lignocellulosic materials, has to face the following two problems: co-fermenting xylose …

Caffeic acid (CA), a natural phenolic compound, has important medicinal value and market
potential. In this study, we report a metabolic engineering strategy for the biosynthesis of CA …

Fermentation of xylose in lignocellulosic hydrolysates by Saccharomyces cerevisiae has
been achieved through heterologous expression of the xylose reductase (XR)–xylitol …

Lignocellulosic biomass is a sustainable and abundant starting material for biofuel
production. However, lignocellulosic hydrolysates contain not only glucose, but also other …
