| 11. | The xylose isomerase from " Streptomyces olivochromogenes " is used in the food industry.
|
| 12. | For example, xylose is converted to xylitol, lactose to lactitol, and glucose to sorbitol.
|
| 13. | The isomerization of xylose to xylulose has its own commercial applications as interest in biofuels has increased.
|
| 14. | This includes common monosaccharides like galactose, glucose, glyceraldehyde, fructose, ribose, and xylose.
|
| 15. | The work focuses on genetically engineering proprietary yeast strains for the efficient production of xylitol from xylose.
|
| 16. | There are only two other forms of glycosylation known to begin with xylose addition directly to protein.
|
| 17. | Another computational method, IPRO, successfully engineered the switching of cofactor specificity of Candida boidinii xylose reductase.
|
| 18. | Recently, engineered yeasts have been described efficiently fermenting xylose, and arabinose, and even both together.
|
| 19. | In another approach, bacterial xylose isomerases have been introduced into " S . cerevisiae ".
|
| 20. | An immobile xylose isomerase that was fixed on a solid surface was first developed in Japan by Takanashi.
