Having a cellobiose transporter means that the engineered yeast can bring cellobiose directly into the cell.
2
They have managed to maintain several prewar strains of bio- engineered yeast, and produce medicines and fertilizers from them.
3
Other scientists, at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU), are exploring using engineered yeast cells to produce pheromones.
4
This result suggested that mating of suboptimal haploid strains is a promising strategy to develop engineered yeast strains with improved xylose fermenting capability.
5
The process described in Nature Chemical Biology is inefficient, requiring 300 liters of genetically engineered yeast to produce a single 30 milligram dose of morphine.
6
Engineered yeast have been used to tackle the scarcity problem in other ways before.
