For thousands of years, the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S. cerevisiae) has served as a
cell factory for the production of bread, beer, and wine. In more recent years, this yeast has …

Fundamental features of microbial cellulose utilization are examined at successively higher
levels of aggregation encompassing the structure and composition of cellulosic biomass …

Yeasts are predominant in the ancient and complex process of winemaking. In spontaneous
fermentations, there is a progressive growth pattern of indigenous yeasts, with the final …

In yeasts, pyruvate is located at a major junction of assimilatory and dissimilatory reactions
as well as at the branch‐point between respiratory dissimilation of sugars and alcoholic …

Lignin represents an untapped feedstock for the production of fuels and chemicals, but its
intrinsic heterogeneity makes lignin valorization a significant challenge. In nature, many …

In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, reduction of NAD+ to NADH occurs in dissimilatory as well as
in assimilatory reactions. This review discusses mechanisms for reoxidation of NADH in this …

Comprehensive knowledge regarding Saccharomyces cerevisiae has accumulated over
time, and today S. cerevisiae serves as a widley used biotechnological production organism …

Lignocellulosic biomass has been considered as an important and sustainable source of
renewable energy. Cellulose constitutes the major component of the lignocellulosic biomass …

Interest in green chemistry and clean processes has grown so much in recent years that
topics such as fluorous biphasic catalysis, metal organic frameworks, and process …

There is a demand to develop 3rd generation biorefineries that integrate energy production
with the production of higher value chemicals from renewable feedstocks. Here, robust and …
