Patent

Means and methods to modulate acetic acid tolerance in industrial fermentations

The present invention relates to the field of fermentation, more particularly to ethanol production. Even more particularly the present invention relates mutant alleles and chimeric genes useful to engineer the acetic acid tolerance in yeast. These yeast strains are particularly useful in the production of bioethanol based on both first- and second-generation substrates.
