Table 2 Effect of mono-sugars on the rate of D-xylose transport by C. sorokiniana

From: Induction of D-xylose uptake and expression of NAD(P)H-linked xylose reductase and NADP + -linked xylitol dehydrogenase in the oleaginous microalga Chlorella sorokiniana

	Induced		Non-induced
	V(nmol min^-1mg^-1DCW)	Inhibition^a(%)	V(nmol min^-1mg^-1DCW)	Inhibition (%)
D-glucose	0.044	92.4	0.011	89.4
D-galactose	0.134	76.7	0.003	97.0
D-fructose	0.504	12.5	0.120	0.0
L-arabinose	0.583	0.0	0.140	0.0
D-ribose	0.567	1.5	0.128	0.0

^aPercentage of inhibition was calculated based on the control without addition of other mono-sugars.
