MODIFIED YEAST COMPRISING GLUCOSE-SPECIFIC, ATP-MEDIATED TRANSPORTERS

Described are compositions and methods relating to modified yeast expressing exogenous, or increased amounts, of glucose-specific, ATP-mediated transporters. The modified yeast produces an increased amount of ethanol compared to parental cells. Such yeast is particularly useful for large-scale ethan...

Zusammenfassung:Described are compositions and methods relating to modified yeast expressing exogenous, or increased amounts, of glucose-specific, ATP-mediated transporters. The modified yeast produces an increased amount of ethanol compared to parental cells. Such yeast is particularly useful for large-scale ethanol production from starch substrates.
