Heterologous transporters enable uptake and utilization of d-galUA by S. cerevisiae at high pH. a Homologues of the eukaryotic d-galacturonic acid transporter, GAT-1, include members of the quinate transporter family (QutD). b Transporters (bolded in A) were expressed in the catabolic strain, yRJP064, and assayed for d-galUA transport and consumption at pH 5.5 (initial OD600 = 10). c A strain expressing GatA from Aspergillus niger exhibits high-flux d-galUA transport in tritiated d-galUA uptake assays with a Km of 340 μM and Vmax of 12.1 nmol min −1 mg−1 protein
