pH-controlled bioreactor experiments for characterizing the growth on glycerol of the S. cerevisiae strain CBS 6412-13A expressing FPS1 homologues from either C. jadinii DSM 2361 or P. tannophilus CBS 4044 in both wild-type and stl1 deletion background. All strains were cultivated in synthetic medium containing 10 g L−1 glycerol as the sole carbon source and pH was controlled at 5.0. Mean values and standard deviations for growth rates and yield coefficients (Ysx: biomass on substrate and Ysc: CO2 on substrate) were obtained from three biological replicates.
