Engineering natural isolates of Saccharomyces cerevisiae for consolidated bioprocessing of cellulosic feedstocks

This study therefore highlights the potential of these natural isolates to be used as chassis organisms in CBP bioethanol production. KEY POINTS: • Process-related fermentation stresses influence heterologous protein production. • Transformants produced up to 4.5 g/L ethanol, ~ 40% of the theoretical yield in CBP. • CRISPR/Cas9 was feasible for integrating genes in natural S. cerevisiae isolates.PMID:37688599 | DOI:10.1007/s00253-023-12729-4
