Fig. 3From: Both levoglucosan kinase activity and transport capacity limit the utilization of levoglucosan in Saccharomyces cerevisiaeThe growth of S. cerevisiae strains in the medium using levoglucosan as source carbon source. The pre-cultured strains were transferred to medium SC-URA-HIS supplemented with 5 g L−1 levoglucosan. Then the growth of strains was measured by a microplate reader at 30 °C. A growth curves; B the maximum OD600; C the maximum specific growth rate (μmax). Experiments were performed in triplicate. The data of strain YLGR00G were used as the reference for significance analysis, * p < 0.05; **p < 0.01Back to article page
