Altering coenzyme specificity of Pichia stipitis xylose reductase by the semi-rational approach CASTing

Background: The NAD(P)H-dependent Pichia stipitis xylose reductase (PsXR) is one of the key enzymes for xylose fermentation, and has been cloned into the commonly used ethanol-producing yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In order to eliminate the redox imbalance resulting from the preference of this en...
