(author), Martinez, A.T. (author)Background: Pleurotus ostreatus is the second edible mushroom worldwide, and a model fungus for delignification applications, with the advantage of growing on woody and nonwoody feedstocks.

Van Rossum, H.M. (author), Kozak, B.U. (author), Pronk, J.T. (author), Van Maris, A.J.A. (author)Saccharomyces cerevisiae is an important industrial cell factory and an attractive experimental model for evaluating novel metabolic engineering strategies. Many current and potential products of this yeast require acetyl coenzyme A (acetyl-CoA) as a precursor and pathways towards these products are generally expressed in its cytosol. The native...journal article 2016

Suarez Mendez, C.A. (author), Hanemaaijer, M. (author), Ten Pierick, A. (author), Wolters, J.C. (author), Heijnen, J.J. (author), Wahl, S.A. (author)13C labeling experiments in aerobic glucose limited cultures of Saccharomyces cerevisiae at four different growth rates (0.054; 0.101, 0.207, 0.307 h?1) are used for calculating fluxes that include intracellular cycles (e.g., storage carbohydrate cycles, exchange fluxes with amino acids), which are rearranged depending on the growth rate. At low...journal article 2016

Milne, N.S.W. (author), Wahl, S.A. (author), Van Maris, A.J.A. (author), Pronk, J.T. (author), Daran, J.M. (author)It is theoretically possible to engineer Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains in which isobutanol is the predominant catabolic product and high-yielding isobutanol-producing strains are already reported by industry. Conversely, isobutanol yields of engineered S. cerevisiae strains reported in the scientific literature typically remain far below 10%...journal article 2016

(author)Anaerobic ammonium-oxidizing (anammox) bacteria oxidize ammonium with nitrite as the terminal electron acceptor to form dinitrogen gas in the absence of oxygen. Anammox bacteria have a compartmentalized cell plan with a central membrane-bound “prokaryotic organelle” called the anammoxosome. The anammoxosome occupies most of the cell volume, has...journal article 2015

Schumacher, R. (author), Wahl, S.A. (author)The design of microbial production processes relies on rational choices for metabolic engineering of the production host and the process conditions. These require a systematic and quantitative understanding of cellular regulation. Therefore, a novel method for dynamic flux identification using quantitative metabolomics and 13C labeling to...journal article 2015

Milne, N. (author), Van Maris, A.J.A. (author), Pronk, J.T. (author), Daran, J.M. (author)Background: Decarboxylation of ?-ketoisovalerate to isobutyraldehyde is a key reaction in metabolic engineering of Saccharomyces cerevisiae for isobutanol production with published studies relying on overexpression of either the native ARO10 gene or of the Lactococcus lactis kivD decarboxylase gene resulting in low enzymatic activities. Here, we...journal article 2015
