A novel AST2 mutation generated upon whole-genome transformation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae confers high tolerance to 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) and other inhibitors.

Development of cell factories for conversion of lignocellulosic biomass hydrolysates into biofuels or bio-based chemicals faces major challenges, including the presence of inhibitory chemicals derived from biomass hydrolysis or pretreatment. Extensive screening of 2526 Saccharomyces cerevisiae strai...
