Zelle, R.M. (author), De Hulster, E. (author), Kloezen, W. (author), Pronk, J.T. (author), Van Maris, A.J.A. (author)A recent effort to improve malic acid production by Saccharomyces cerevisiae by means of metabolic engineering resulted in a strain that produced up to 59 g liter(-1) of malate at a yield of 0.42 mol (mol glucose)(-1) in calcium carbonate-buffered shake flask cultures. With shake flasks, process parameters that are important for scaling up this...journal article 2010

(author), Pronk, J.T. (author), Van Maris, A.J.A. (author)Malic acid is a potential biomass-derivable "building block" for chemical synthesis. Since wild-type Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains produce only low levels of malate, metabolic engineering is required to achieve efficient malate production with this yeast. A promising pathway for malate production from glucose proceeds via carboxylation of...journal article 2008
