improvement of a bacterial L-arabinose utilization pathway consisting of L-arabinose isomerase from Bacillus subtilis and L-ribulokinase and L-ribulose-5-phosphate 4-epimerase from Escherichia coli after expression of the corresponding genes in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. These improvements make up a new starting point for the construction of more-efficient industrial L-arabinose-fermenting yeast strains by evolutionary engineering
