Journal ArticleDOI
Concurrent knock‐out of at least 20 transporter genes is required to block uptake of hexoses in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Roman Wieczorke,Stefanie Krampe,Thomas Weierstall,Kerstin Freidel,Cornelis P. Hollenberg,Eckhard Boles +5 more
TL;DR: As additional deletion of the glucose sensor gene SNF3 partially restored growth on hexoses, the data indicate the existence of even more proteins able to transport hexoses in yeast.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Dual Function of Sugar Carriers: Transport and Sugar Sensing
Sylvie Lalonde,Eckhard Boles,Hanjo Hellmann,Laurence Barker,John W. Patrick,Wolf B. Frommer,John M. Ward +6 more
TL;DR: Sucrose and its derivatives represent the major transport forms of photosynthetically assimilated carbon in plants and are exported via the phloem, the long-distance distribution network for assimilates.
Journal ArticleDOI
The molecular genetics of hexose transport in yeasts
TL;DR: The further characterization of this multigene family of hexose transporters should help to elucidate the role of transport in yeast sugar metabolism, and exhibit different affinities for their substrates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Kinetic characterization of individual hexose transporters of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and their relation to the triggering mechanisms of glucose repression.
TL;DR: The strength of the glucose repression signal correlated with the glucose consumption rates in the different strains, indicating that glucose transport limits the provision of a triggering signal rather then being directly involved in the triggering mechanism.
Journal ArticleDOI
Trends and challenges in the microbial production of lignocellulosic bioalcohol fuels
Christian Weber,Alexander Farwick,Feline Benisch,Dawid Brat,Heiko Dietz,Thorsten Subtil,Eckhard Boles +6 more
TL;DR: In this review, the properties of various microorganisms, bacteria and yeasts, as well as current research efforts to develop a reliable lignocellulosic bioalcohol producing organism are compared.
