Title:
YEAST CAPABLE OF PRODUCING ETHANOL FROM XYLOSE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2014/058034
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The purpose of the present invention is to provide yeast capable of producing ethanol from xylose. The present invention relates to: transformed yeast produced by introducing at least one gene selected from glutamate dehydrogenase gene 2 (GDH2) and sorbitol dehydrogenase gene 1 (SOR1) into yeast having three genes, i.e., aldo-keto enzyme gene 3 (GRE3), SOR1 and xylulose phosphorylase gene (XKS1), introduced onto the chromosome thereof; or transformed yeast having thee genes, i.e., GRE3, SOR1 and XKS1, introduced onto the chromosome thereof.
