Abstract excerpt
Production of xylitol from agricultural by-products offers a promising approach for the circular bioeconomy. This study investigates the roles of transcription factors XlnR and CreA in xylitol production from wheat bran in Aspergillus niger by generating strains with a constitutively active XlnR (XlnRc, V756F mutation) and/or deletion of creA, in a previously generated xylitol-producing strain. The XlnRc mutation...
