Abstract

Oleaginous yeast Trichosporon cutaneum demonstrated excellent lipid accumulation performance and inhibitor tolerance derived from lignocellulose pretreatment. Here we firstly report a 30.45Mb assembly genome of T. cutaneum ACCC 20271 for understanding the microbial lipid biosynthesis and mechanism of inhibitor tolerance and degradation.

Keywords: Genome sequence; Inhibitor; Lignocellulose; Microbial lipid; Trichosporon cutaneum ACCC 20271.
