The present invention relates to a method for producing a L-arabinose utilizing yeast stain for the production ethanol, whereby a yeast strain is modified by introducing and expressing araAgene (L-arabinose isomerase), araB gene (L-ribulokinase D121-N) and araD gene (L-ribulose-5-P 4-epimerase) and carrying additional mutations in its genome or overexpressing a TAL1 (transaldolase) gene, enabling it to consume L-arabinose, to use it as the only carbon source, and to produce ethanol, as well as a method for producing ethanol using such a modified strain.

La présente invention concerne un procédé de fabrication d'une souche de levure faisant intervenir L-arabinose, destinée à la production d'éthanol, une souche de levure étant modifiée par introduction et expression du gène <i>araA </i> (L-arabinose isomérase), du gène <i>araB</i> (L-ribulokinase D?121¿-N) et du gène <i>araD</i> (L-ribulose-5-P 4-épimérase), et mise en oeuvre de mutations supplémentaires dans son génome ou surexpression d'un gène <i>TAL1</i> (transaldolase) de manière que ladite levure consomme L-arabinose. Ainsi, ladite levure peut être employée comme l'unique source de carbone et pour la production d'éthanol. L'invention concerne également un procédé de production d'éthanol faisant intervenir une telle souche modifiée.
