OVER-EXPRESSION OF TRANSCRIPTIONAL ACTIVATOR/REPRESSOR GIS1 IN YEAST FOR INCREASED ETHANOL PRODUCTION

Described are compositions and methods relating to modified yeast cells that over-expresses the transcriptional activator/repressor, GIS1. The yeast cells produce an increased amount of ethanol compared to their parental cells. Such yeast is particularly useful for large-scale ethanol production fro...

Zusammenfassung:Described are compositions and methods relating to modified yeast cells that over-expresses the transcriptional activator/repressor, GIS1. The yeast cells produce an increased amount of ethanol compared to their parental cells. Such yeast is particularly useful for large-scale ethanol production from starch substrates where increased ethanol production is desirable
