1 | We constructed two recombinant strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae in which the GPD2 gene was deleted using a one-step gene replacement method to minimize formation of glycerol and improve ethanol production. | Glycerol | glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (NAD(+)) GPD2 | Saccharomyces cerevisiae S288C |
2 | Although gene GPD2 is responsible for the glycerol synthesis, the mutant KAM-13, in which glycerol formation was substantially reduced, was able to cope and maintain osmoregulation and redox balance and have increased ethanol production under anaerobic fermentations. | Glycerol | glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (NAD(+)) GPD2 | Saccharomyces cerevisiae S288C |
