HOST CELLS AND THEIR USE FOR PRODUCING RIBITOL AND FURTHER MONOSACCHARIDES

The present invention relates to host cells and their use wherein the host cells are capable of producing D-ribulose and incapable of or have a reduced capability of converting D-ribulose to a molecule other than ribitol, wherein the host cells comprise a heterologous nucleic acid sequence encoding...

Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates to host cells and their use wherein the host cells are capable of producing D-ribulose and incapable of or have a reduced capability of converting D-ribulose to a molecule other than ribitol, wherein the host cells comprise a heterologous nucleic acid sequence encoding a polypeptide capable of converting D-ribulose to ribitol with a cofactor preference for NADPH.
