Verhoeven, M.D. (author), de Valk, S.C. (author), Daran, J.G. (author), van Maris, A.J.A. (author), Pronk, J.T. (author)D-Glucose, D-xylose and L-arabinose are major sugars in lignocellulosic hydrolysates. This study explores fermentation of glucose-xylose-arabinose mixtures by a consortium of three ‘specialist’ Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains. A D-glucose- and L-arabinose-tolerant xylose specialist was constructed by eliminating hexose phosphorylation in an...journal article 2018

Verhoeven, M.D. (author), Bracher, J.M. (author), Nijland, Jeroen G. (author), Bouwknegt, J. (author), Daran, J.G. (author), Driessen, Arnold J.M. (author)Cas9-assisted genome editing was used to construct an engineered glucose-phosphorylation-negative S. cerevisiae strain, expressing the Lactobacillus plantaruml-arabinose pathway and the Penicillium chrysogenum transporter PcAraT. This strain, which showed a growth rate of 0.26 h−1 on l-arabinose in aerobic batch cultures, was subsequently...journal article 2018

Guadalupe-Medina, V. (author), Wisselink, H.W. (author), Luttik, M.A.H. (author), De Hulster, E. (author), Daran, J.M. (author), Pronk, J.T. (author), Van Maris, A.J.A. (author)Background Redox-cofactor balancing constrains product yields in anaerobic fermentation processes. This challenge is exemplified by the formation of glycerol as major by-product in yeast-based bioethanol production, which is a direct consequence of the need to reoxidize excess NADH and causes a loss of conversion efficiency. Enabling the use of...journal article 2013
