    Abstract: The invention provides methods of cultivating oil-bearing microbes using xylose as a fixed carbon source. Also provided are microorganisms that have been genetically engineered to metabolize xylose as a fixed carbon source allowing them to convert xylose into oils. Particular advantages of the processes provided herein include production of oils rather than alcohols through the microbial fermentation processes utilizing xylose.

    Abstract translation: 本发明提供了使用木糖作为固定碳源培养含油微生物的方法。 还提供了经遗传工程化以将木糖代谢为固定碳源的微生物,从而允许木糖转化为油。 本文提供的方法的特别优点包括通过利用木糖的微生物发酵方法生产油而不是醇。
