The invention also relates to the applications of the xylose isomerase in theoretical research as a model protein and actual production of fuel ethanol, high fructose syrup and the like.doi:EP2679686 A1BAO XiaomingSHEN YuGE RuileiEP
Like arabinose, the aldopentose xylose is also present in lignocellulosic hydrolyzates and is typically utilized in bacteria via the pentose phosphate pathway after isomerization to xylulose and phosporylation to xylulose-5-phosphate. The genome of C. glutamicum does not encode xylose isomerase XylA,...
Define xylose. xylose synonyms, xylose pronunciation, xylose translation, English dictionary definition of xylose. n. A crystalline monosaccharide, C5H10O5, that is a component of most hemicelluloses in plants. Also called wood sugar . American Heritage
Alternatively, xylose was also involved in a procedure known as a D-xylose absorption test that used to be employed to evaluate how well an individual was capable of absorbing a simple sugar like D-xylose from the intestines 9. By measuring the amount of D-xylose in urine and blood samples...
The ptsG deletion also led to overexpression of proteins related to xylose consumption, i.e., XylA (Xylose isomerase) and XylB (Xylulokinase), which along with TalB overexpression indicates higher activity of PPP and supports the co-utilization phenotype of SCD00 for xylose and glucose. There ...

(XR) and xylitol dehydrogenase (XDH), respectively, which enable the two-step transformation from xylose to xylulose; (2) by expressing a heterologous xylose isomerase (XI) from fungi such as Piromyces [8] and Orpinomyces [9], or from Clostridium phytofermentans [10] which converts xylose...
Bacteria like Escherichia coli generally employ a one-step pathway using xylose isomerase (XI) enzyme, whereas yeasts and mycelial fungi need two enzymatic–catalytic steps by reduction reaction of d-xylose reductase (XR) and oxidation reaction of xylitol dehydrogenase (XDH) [18, 19]. d-xylulose...
