| Research Abstract |
Lignocellulosic biomass is mainly composed of glucose and xylose as the major sugars. The use of glucose for the biopolymer production has been demonstrated to be efficient whereas, the use of xylose is inefficient. However efficient utilization of both sugars is essential. In this study, methods for the efficient utilization of xylose were developed and enhanced to obtain high productivities of biopolymers. For P(LA-co-3HB) production lactic acid supplementation into the cell contributed to the inprovement of polymer yield from xylose. In addition xylose was found to be superiorb to glucose in giving higher LA fraction in the copolymer. The uptake of xylose by GatC which is galactitol transporter also effective to produce the copolymer. The approach for high yield production of biopolymers in combination with the lignocellulosic-derived mix sugars have a potential for the establishment of biorifinary for the production of variety of biopolymers.
