Abstract:: The economically viable production of value added fuels and chemicals from lignocellulosic feedstocks hinges on our ability to quickly and efficiently transform structural carbon molecules to end products. The sugars in lignocellulosic biomass are held primarily within cellulose and hemicellulose. Cellulose is composed primarily of glucose monomers which are quickly...

Creator:: Hohenschuh, William
Abstract:: The production of fuel ethanol from lignocellulosic biomass has the potential to replace a significant portion of non-renewable transport fuels. Woody feedstocks are composed of cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin. Glucose, the monomer of cellulose, is readily utilized by wild-type S. cerevisiae, but xylose, which comprises 60% of the sugar in...

Creator:: Avanasi Narasimhan, Ragothaman
Abstract:: A major challenge in ethanol production using lignocellulosic feed stock is inefficient utilization of hemicellulose, which accounts for 30-40% of lignocellulosic biomass. Xylose, comprising >60% of recoverable sugars from hemicellulose is a major product of the hemicellulose hydrolysis. Utilization of this carbon source would significantly increase the ethanol yield from...
