Xylitol, a natural compound classified as a sugar alcohol, is found diversely in fruits and
vegetables in small quantities. Commercial production of xylitol has expanded due to its …

Xylitol is a GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe) polyol commonly used in the food industry
and able to promote several benefits to the health. In addition, it can also be used as a …

The aim of this study was to develop an environmentally safe and efficient method for
phenyllactic acid (PLA) production using whole-cell cascade catalysis with l-amino acid …

The co-production of xylitol and ethanol from agricultural straw has more economic
advantages than the production of ethanol only. Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the most widely …

Xylitol is an important functional sugar alcohol which is widely used in industries. To
efficiently produce xylitol from xylose by xylose reductase in a single step, the coupled …

Xylose reductase (XR) is an intermediate inducible enzyme of xylose metabolism
responsible for the reduction of xylose into xylitol. It is an intracellular enzyme present in …

Xylitol is a five‐carbon sugar alcohol that has a variety of uses in the food and
pharmaceutical industries. In xylose assimilating yeasts, NAD (P) H‐dependent xylose …

In this study, the xylose reductase gene (XRTL) from Thermomyces lanuginosus SSBP was
expressed in Pichia pastoris GS115 and Saccharomyces cerevisiae Y294. The purified 39.2 …

Exorbitant outputs of waste xylose mother liquor (WXML) and corncob residue from
commercial‐scale production of xylitol create environmental problems. To reduce the …

Engineered Saccharomyces cerevisiae can reduce xylose to xylitol. However, in S.
cerevisiae, there are several endogenous enzymes including xylitol dehydrogenase …
