## Abstract The influence of glucose on xylose reductase (XR) and xylitol dehydrogenase (XDH) enzyme activity was evaluated from sugarcane bagasse hydrolysate fermentations with different glucose:xylose ratios (1:25, 1:12, 1:5 and 1:2.5) by employing an inoculum of __Candida guilliermondii__ grown
To enhance metabolite transfer in the two initial sequential steps of xylose metabolism in yeast, two structural genes of Pichia stipitis, XYL } and XYL " encoding xylose reductase (XR) and xylitol dehydrogenase (XDH), respectively, were fused in frame. Four chimeric genes were constructed, encoding
Considerable interest in the D-xylose catabolic pathway of Pachysolen tannophilus has arisen from the discovery thatthis yeast iscapableoffermenting D-xylosetoethanol. In this organism D-xylose appears to be catabolized through xylitol to D-xylulose. NADPH-linked D-xylose reductase is primarily resp
In order to improve the biotechnological production of xylitol, the metabolism of Debaryomyces hansenii NRRL Y-7426 in corncob hemicellulose hydrolyzate has been investigated under different conditions, where either maintenance or growth requirements predominated. For this purpose, the experimental
This paper discusses the modelling of xylose hydrogenation kinetics over Raney nickel in aqueous solutions, the determination of the hydrogen solubility in the reaction mixture as well as evaluation of mass transfer effects in the reaction system. The hydrogenation experiments were carried out batch
