Abstract
We examined the evolutionary adaptation of recombinant shochu yeast by serial anaerobic cultivation in xylose-based minimal medium. Compared with the parental strain, the adapted strain MA-S4-M1 (M1) markedly improved the growth on xylose and the anaerobic xylose consumption rate. M1 gained improved xylose utilization properties by optimizing the metabolic pathway enzymes and enhancing the uptake of xylose.
