Curate localization and function of various TKL/TAL/DAS. Experiments conducted with Ogataea and Scheffersomyces.

Peroxisomes and peroxisomal transketolase and transaldolase enzymes are essential for xylose alcoholic fermentation by the methylotrophic thermotolerant yeast, Ogataea (Hansenula) polymorpha https://biotechnologyforbiofuels.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s13068-018-1203-z#Sec12

Should support xyl fermentation to ethanol with [x] Tal3p/Das1p enzymes

kcorreia commented 6 years ago

Genes have been added to Ma'OR models, but have not verified if xylose can be fermented to ethanol with [x] enzymes.
