  • ETHANOL PRODUCTIVITIES OF SACCHAROMYCES CEREVISIAE STRAINS IN FERMENTATION OF DILUTE-ACID HYDROLYZATES DEPEND ON THEIR FURAN REDUCTION CAPACITIES
    Publication number: 20070155000
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an ethanol producing microbial strain, such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain, being able to grow and produce ethanol from lignocellulosic hydrolysates comprising growth inhibiting compounds of the group furfural and 5-hydroxy-methyl furfural, in a batch, fed-batch or continuous fermentation, said microbial strain being tolerant to such inhibiting compounds, which strain is upregulated and/or over expressed with regard to one or more of the following genes: LAT1, ALD6, ADH5, ADH6, GDH3, OYE3, SER3, GND2, MDH2, IDP3, ADH7, AAD15, ERG27, HMG1, LYS5, SPS19, SGE1.
