This study identifies conditions for extracellular biopolymer production in Rhodotorula toruloides, showing that nitrogen metabolism acidification drives exopolysaccharide synthesis.

This study improves xylose consumption in Rhodotorula toruloides by overexpressing xylose reductase and xylulokinase from different organisms, showing significant increases in consumption rate and growth.

The paper develops a Golden Gate Assembly platform (RtGGA) for Rhodotorula toruloides to enhance metabolic pathway engineering, resulting in a 41% increase in carotenoid production.

This study investigates how R. toruloides converts xylose into lipids and carotenoids, showing that oxidative stress improves lipid yields and adaptive evolution enhances carotenoid production.

The paper compares lipid accumulation capacity and physiological parameters of six Yarrowia lipolytica and two Rhodosporidium toruloides strains on glycerol, finding R. toruloides CCT 7815 has the highest lipid production.
