Disclosed herein is a yeast strain capable of fermenting high maltose syrups into ethanol in the presence of glucose. In commercially important fuel ethanol yeast strains, the presence of glucose prevents robust maltose fermentation. This invention causes enhanced co-fermentation of maltose and glucose in strains otherwise identical to commercial fuel ethanol yeast strains.

Materials and methods for creating strains ofthat exhibit an increased ability to ferment oligosaccharides into ethanol

Disclosed herein are materials and methods for the production of high concentrations of ethanol from plant starch material broken down into disaccharide and trisaccharide sugars such as maltose, isomaltose, and maltotriose from uncooked starch. Herein is also described use of a yeast strain capable of fermenting high maltose syrups into ethanol without the need to convert disaccharides or trisaccharides into glucose using exogenous glucoamylases.

Methods of fermenting mixtures that include di- and tri-saccharides formed at low temperature using a maltophilic yeast

This disclosure concerns methods for producing a spinosyn producing host cell that comprises modifying a nucleic acid molecule encoding for spinactin by introducing, mutating, deleting, replacing or inactivating a nucleic acid sequence encoding one or more activities of a polypeptide encoded by the nucleic acid molecule. Methods for producing a modifiedorganism or strain are also disclosed.
