“…The effect can be superior by the presence of xylose and glucose degradation products such as furfural and its derivative caused by acid and heat (Zaldivar et al, 1999). Hence, biologically degradation products of lignin could lessen the harmful effect during enzymatic hydrolysis.…”

“…Other aldehydes known to be present in dilute acid hydrolysates of hemicellulose [21,26] were also tested at various concentrations using LY180(pLOI4900) and LY180 yqhC(pLOI4900). All increased luciferase activity by 2-to 5-fold in LY180(pLOI4900) in comparison with untreated cells (data not shown).…”

“…Furfural is metabolized to furfuryl alcohol by NADPHdependent oxidoreductases in yeast [9,21,24] and bacteria [2,6,26]. In E. coli, growth is inhibited by the addition of furfural at concentrations below 1.0 g l ¡1 but resumed following conversion of furfural to furfuryl alcohol [17,18].…”

Previous results have demonstrated that the silencing of adjacent genes encoding NADPH-dependent furfural oxidoreductases (yqhD dkgA) is responsible for increased furfural tolerance in an E. coli strain EMFR9 [Miller et al., Appl Environ Microbiol 75:4315-4323, 2009]. This gene silencing is now reported to result from the spontaneous insertion of an IS10 into the coding region of yqhC, an upstream gene. YqhC shares homology with transcriptional regulators belonging to the AraC/XylS family and was shown to act as a positive regulator of the adjacent operon encoding YqhD and DkgA. Regulation was demonstrated by constructing a chromosomal deletion of yqhC, a firefly luciferase reporter plasmid for yqhC, and by a direct comparison of furfural resistance and NADPH-dependent furfural reductase activity. Closely related bacteria contain yqhC, yqhD, and dkgA orthologs in the same arrangement as in E. coli LY180. Orthologs of yqhC are also present in more distantly related Gram-negative bacteria. Disruption of yqhC offers a useful approach to increase furfural tolerance in bacteria.
