Evolutionary Role of Interspecies Hybridization and Genetic Exchanges in Yeasts
Lucia Morales,Bernard Dujon +1 more
TL;DR: Problems of meiotic fertility, ploidy constraint, gene and gene product compatibility, and nucleomitochondrial interactions are discussed and placed in the context of other known mechanisms of yeast genome evolution as a model for eukaryotes.

Production of arabitol by yeasts: current status and future prospects
TL;DR: The present review discusses research on native yeasts from the genera Candida, Pichia, Debaryomyces and Zygosaccharomyces as well as genetically modified strains of SacCharomyces cerevisiae which are able to utilize biomass hydrolysates to effectively produce l‐ or d‐arabitol.

Production of D-arabitol from D-xylose by the oleaginous yeast Rhodosporidium toruloides IFO0880.
TL;DR: This study found that the oleaginous yeast Rhodosporidium toruloides IFO0880 produces d-arabitol during growth on xylose in nitrogen-rich medium, and demonstrated that R. toruloide can be used to produce multiple value-added chemicals from Xylose.

Design and economics of industrial production of fructooligosaccharides
TL;DR: A process for industrial production of fructooligosaccharides (FOS’s) based on the conversion of sucrose by immobilized fructosyltransferase (FTase) from the cells of Aureobasidium pullulans CCY 27-1-94 was developed.

Interlaboratory testing of methods for assay of xylanase activity
TL;DR: In this paper, a collaborative investigation of assays for endo-1,4-β-xylanase activity based on production of reducing sugars from polymeric 4-O-methyl glucuronoxylan was conducted.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microbial xylanolytic systems
TL;DR: Microorganisms metabolizing xylan as a carbon source, and the enzyme systems they employ for its breakdown, may become important tools in elaborating economically and ecologically beneficial processes for using the second most abundant renewable polysaccharide.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular and biotechnological aspects of xylanases
TL;DR: Many lines of evidence suggest that xylanases operate via a double displacement mechanism in which the anomeric configuration is retained, although some of the enzymes catalyze single displacement reactions with inversion of configuration.
