Construction and optimization of efficient glucose-xylose co-fermenting yeast Yarrowia lipolytica for green and sustainable succinic acid production from lignocellulosic biomass

Xylose is the second most abundant carbohydrate present in nature, while its inefficient utilization severely restricts the economic viability of lignocellulosic biomass-based biorefinery. Herein, metabolic engineering strategies involving xylose metabolism...
