Construction of Recombinant <i>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</i> with Ethanol and Aldehydes Tolerance via Overexpression of Aldehyde Reductase

Furfural and hydroxy-methyl-furfural (HMF) are produced by lignocellulosic biomass during heat or acid pretreatment and are toxic to yeast. Aldehyde reductase is the main enzyme to reduce furfural and HMF. To improve the conversion efficiency of lignocellulosic biomass into ethanol, we constructed &...
