    摘要: The present invention relates to novel nucleic acid sequences which, upon expression in a procaryotic or eucaryotic cell, code for a polypeptide having an elevated specific xylose isomerase activity compared to the wildtype Thermus thermophilus xylose isomerase. They are selected from a) nucleic acid sequences shown in SEQ. ID. No 1; b) the complementary strand of the sequence defined in (a) above; c) nucleic acid sequences which hybridize to the sequences defined in (a) or (b) above; d) nucleic acid sequences which, but for the degeneracy of the genetic code, would hybridize to the sequences defined in (a), (b) or (c) above and which code for the same polypeptide as those defined in (a), (b) or (c) above. The present invention further provides a process of producing ethanol from xylose containing materials comprising contacting cells that express such nucleic acid sequences and novel modified xylose isomerases that advantageously can be applied in the production of fructose syrups.
