D-Xylonate titre and production rate were increased and xylitol production decreased, compared to strains expressing genes encoding T. reesei or pig liver NADP þ -dependent D-xylose dehydrogenases. D-Xylonate accumulated intracellularly to 􀀃70 mg g 􀀂 1 ; xylitol to 􀀃18 mg g 􀀂 1. The aldose reductase encoding gene GRE3 was deleted to reduce xylitol production. Cells expressing D-xylonolactone lactonase xylC from C. crescentus with xylB initially produced more extracellular D-xylonate than cells lacking xylC at both pH 5.5 and pH 3, and sustained higher production at pH 3. Cell vitality and viability decreased during D-xylonate production at pH 3.0.

Introduction  \nD-Xylose is an abundant pentose sugar present in lignocellulosic plant material, which is currently considered primarily as a potential feed-stock for ethanol or xylitol production (Akinterinwa and Cirino, 2009; Nair and Zhao, 2010; Skorupa Parachin et al., 2011). However, its oxidation product D-xylonic acid or its conjugate base D-xylonate has potential applications as chelator, dispersant, clarifying agent, antibiotic, health enhancer, polyamide or hydrogel modiﬁer or 1,2,4-butanetriol precursor (Millner et al., 1994; Chun et al., 2006; Markham, 1991 ; Tomoda et al., 2004; Pujos, 2006; Niu et al., 2003; Zamora et al., 2000). D-Xylonate could also serve as a non-food derived replacement of D-gluconic acid.  \nMicrobial production of D-xylonate with bacteria e.g., Pseudomonas sp. or Gluconobacter oxydans has been well described (Buchert et al., 1986, 1988; Buchert, 1990). High D-xylonate yieldsand relatively high production rates from D-xylose are obtainable with bacteria, but when birch wood hydrolyzates were used as substrate, the conversion of D-xylose to D-xylonate decreased  \nn Corresponding author.

Gluconobacter species have periplasmic, membrane bound PQQ-dependent and intracellular NAD(P) þ dependent dehydrogenases which oxidise D-xylose to D-xylonate. These enzymes are responsible for the oxidation of a variety of sugars and sugar alcohols, and the lack of speciﬁcity results in a mixture of acids when complex substrates such as lignocellulosic hydrolysate are provided (Buchert, 1991; Rauch et al., 2010; H¨olscheret al., 2009).
