Abstract in Portuguese
Resíduos lignocelulósicos são substratos proeminentes para a produção sustentável de polihidroxialcanoatos (PHAs) e etanol. A xilose é um dos principais componentes da lignocelulose, mas o aproveitamento eficiente desse açúcar ainda representa uma barreira técnica. O objetivo desse trabalho foi obter linhagens bacterianas mais eficientes no consumo desse açúcar. Foi introduzido maior número de cópias dos genes do catabolismo (xylAB) e transporte (xylFGH) de xilose, nas linhagens Escherichia coli KO11, produtora de etanol, e Burkholderia sacchari LFM 101, produtora de poli-3-hidroxibutirato (PHB). Os recombinantes foram avaliados quanto ao consumo de xilose e produção na presença e ausência de glicose. Para B. sacchari LFM 101 essa estratégia não incrementou o consumo desse açúcar. Para E. coli KO11 xylAB reduziu o tempo de consumo de xilose e aumentou a produção final de etanol em 30%, mas esse efeito foi prejudicado pela repressão catabólica; enquanto xylFGH foi deletério ao reduzir para quase zero o crescimento e produção de etanol por essa linhagem.

Abstract in English
Lignocellulosic residues are remarkable substrates for the sustainable production of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) and ethanol. Xylose is one of the most important lignocelullose component but its efficient utilization still represents a technical barrier. The aim of this work was to obtain bacterial strains more efficient in the xylose consumption. Multiple copies of the catabolism (xylAB) and transport (xylFGH) genes of xylose were introduced in the ethanol producer Escherichia coli KO11 strain and the poly-3-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) producer Burkholderia sacchari LFM 101. The recombinants strains were evaluated for their production and xylose consumption in the presence and absence of glucose. This strategy did not increase xylose consumption in B. sacchari strains. The xylAB gene improved xylose consumption and increased the ethanol production about 30% in E. coli KO11, but this effect was impaired by catabolite repression; while xylFGH gene was deleterious to reduce the growth and ethanol production by this strain.
