Abstract
strains by metabolic and evolutionary engineering approaches. In addition, managing global transcriptional regulation works provides an effective means to increase the xylose utilization capacity of recombinant strains. Here we review the common strategies and research advances in the research field in order to facilitate the researches in xylose metabolism and xylose-based fermentation.
