Abstract

Four kinds of transporters, HXT1 and HXY7 from Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and GXF1 and GXS1 from Candida intermedia, were overexpressed in xylose-metabolizing S. cerevisiae harboring a xyloseisomerase-based pathway. Overexpression of transporter enhanced sugar consumption and ethanol production, and GXF1 was efficient for ethanol fermentation from both glucose and xylose.
