RATIONAL AND EVOLUTIONARY ENGINEERING APPROACHES UNCOVER A SMALL SET OF GENETIC CHANGES EFFICIENT FOR RAPID XYLOSE FERMENTATION IN SACCHAROMYCES CEREVISIAE.

Rational and evolutionary engineering approaches uncover a small set of genetic changes efficient for rapid xylose fermentation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Economic bioconversion of plant cell wall hydrolysates into fuels and chemicals has been hampered mainly due to the inability of microorganisms to efficiently co-ferment pentose and hexose sugars, especially glucose and xylose, which are the most abundant sugars in cellulosic hydrolysates.Saccharomyces cerevisiae cannot metabolize xylose due to a l

Divergence of metabolites in three phylogenetically close Monascus species (M. pilosus, M. ruber, and M. purpureus) based on secondary metabolite biosynthetic gene clusters

Abstract Background Species of the genus Monascus are considered to be kotha model dress economically important and have been widely used in the production of yellow and red food colorants.In particular, three Monascus species, namely, M.pilosus, M.purpureus, and M.ruber, are used for food fermentation in the cuisine of East Asian countries such as

Joint Resource Scheduling of the Time Slot, Power, and Main Lobe Direction in Directional UAV Ad Hoc Networks: A Multi-Agent Deep Reinforcement Learning Approach

Directional unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) ad hoc networks (DUANETs) are widely applied due to their high flexibility, strong anti-interference capability, and high transmission rates.However, within directional networks, complex mutual interference persists, necessitating scheduling of the time slot, power, and main lobe direction for all links to
