Journal ArticleDOI

Creation of a Bacterial Cell Controlled by a Chemically Synthesized Genome

TL;DR: The design, synthesis, and assembly of the 1.08–mega–base pair Mycoplasma mycoides JCVI-syn1.0 genome starting from digitized genome sequence information and its transplantation into a M. capricolum recipient cell to create new cells that are controlled only by the synthetic chromosome are reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparative genomics of biotechnologically important yeasts

TL;DR: The comparative genome analysis of 29 taxonomically and biotechnologically important yeasts, including 16 newly sequenced, enables correlation of genes to useful metabolic properties and showed the synteny of the mating-type locus to be conserved over a billion years of evolution.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nitrogen limitation, oxygen limitation, and lipid accumulation in Lipomyces starkeyi.

TL;DR: Under all conditions, L. starkeyi cultures tolerated acidified media, produced considerable amounts of alcohols; including ethanol, mannitol, arabitol, and 2,3-butanediol, showing its potential to produce biofuels from renewable agricultural feedstocks.
Journal ArticleDOI

An optimized transformation protocol for Lipomyces starkeyi

TL;DR: An efficient genetic transformation system for Lipomyces starkeyi based on a modified lithium acetate transformation protocol is reported, achieving efficiencies in excess of 8,000 transformants/µg DNA, which now make it possible to screen libraries in the metabolic engineering of this yeast.
Journal ArticleDOI

Muconic acid production from glucose and xylose in Pseudomonas putida via evolution and metabolic engineering

TL;DR: In this paper , Pseudomonas putida KT2440 is engineered to convert glucose and xylose, the primary carbohydrates in lignocellulosic hydrolysates, to muconic acid using a model-guided strategy to maximize the theoretical yield.
