I'm not seeing a DOI on that page at all.Where on the page is that showing up for you?Maybe the logged-in page is different, or some browser extension you have is adding it?

The DOI is being detected as "10.1042/EBC20200160/229078/Saccharomyces-cerevisiae-strains-used-industrially#.YNIrcFfdiF4.linkedin", when the actual DOI only goes through "078".That's what's causing the error.

In Chrome, in a session where I'm not logged into LinkedIn, I get:

Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains used industrially for bioethanol production



In Firefox, in a session where I'm logged in (and for which I reported the error and debug ID), I get:

Yeah, there's not really much we can do about that.I guess we could consider progressively deleting slash-or-hash-delimited components from the end of a DOI within a URL after it fails to resolve and retrying, but that would be a pretty messy and inefficient solution.

Part of the reason DOI is always a folder icon is that we can't guarantee in advance that something that looks like a DOI is actually a valid DOI, or that it will represent the intended item if so.Assuming you want to save the original article here, you'd really want to just click through to the publisher site, which is fully supported.
