Figure 4

Isobutanol production by transformants expressing genes related to the transhydrogenase-like shunt. (a) Isobutanol production by S. cerevisiae strains co-expressing genes related to the Ehrlich pathway (kivd and ADH6), the ILV2 gene, and transhydrogenase-like shunt. Isobutanol titers were determined at 48 h after the fermentation start. The introduced pathway and genes are shown in the figures. (b) Fermentation profiles of BSW13, BSW17 and BSW18. Detailed genotypes of each strain are described in Table 1. Each data point represents the mean (SD) values obtained from 3 replicate fermentations.
