General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function an enzyme mutant shows poor growth on D-xylose but normal growth on xylitol and D-glucose. Growth rate, growth yield, and D-xylose consumption rate of the mutant are less sensitive than those of the wild-type to changes in aeration rate. D-Xylose is utilized more efficiently in that less of a by-product, xylitol, is produced Pachysolen tannophilus
