Transporter engineering for improved tolerance against alkane biofuels in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Background: Hydrocarbon alkanes, components of major fossil fuels, are considered as next-generation biofuels because their biological production has recently been shown to be possible. However, high-yield alkane production requires robust host cells that are tolerant against alkanes, which exhibit...
