Second Generation Ethanol

Increasing interest in the production of second-generation ethanol necessitates the low-cost production of enzymes from the cellulolytic complex (endoglucanases, exoglucanases, and β-glucosidases), which act synergistically in cellulose breakdown. The present work aimed to optimise a bioprocess to produce these biocatalysts from the fungus Penicillium funiculosum ATCC11797. A statistical full factorial design (FFD) was employed to determine the optimal conditions for cellulase production. The optimal composition of culture media using Avicel (10 g·L−1) as carbon source was determined to include urea (1.2 g·L−1), yeast extract (1.0 g·L−1), KH2PO4 (6.0 g·L−1), and MgSO4·7H2O (1.2 g·L−1). The growth process was performed in batches in a bioreactor. Using a different FFD strategy, the optimised bioreactor operational conditions of an agitation speed of 220 rpm and aeration rate of 0.6 vvm allowed the obtainment of an enzyme pool with activities of 508 U·L−1 for FPase, 9,204 U·L−1 for endoglucanase, and 2,395 U·L−1 for β-glucosidase. The sequential optimisation strategy was effective and afforded increased cellulase production in the order from 3.6 to 9.5 times higher than production using nonoptimised conditions.

Cellulase Enzyme

Areca palm (ChrysalidoCarpus lutescenes) a widely used plant having feathery arching brands with 100 leaflets. All these plants produce much of waste in additions to greeny and nuts. This waste of spade is used for the production of various molecules that are used in industry and pharma sector. Fermentation techniques are used to generate economically important enzymes for industrial and pharmaceutical purposes. Cellulase enzyme degrades the cellulose in between β-1, 4 glucosidic link found in lignocellulosic complex which under physical treatment is slower to degrade. The present study of Aspergillus niger for cellulose production was carried in solid state (SS) and submerged (SM) fermentations for production of cellulase enzyme. Cellulase production in SSF after 72 h of fermentation was 8.02 and in SMF activity was 2.98 per ml of cultured broth at H 6 and temperature at 30°C. Both SMF and SSF were supplemented with lactose and lactobionic acid, which acted as cellulase P production inducers. The aim of the present work was to study the effect of Areca palm spade as substrate for Aspergillus niger and its cellulase production under SMF and SSF.

Aims: The purpose of this study was to screen the bacteria producing cellulase enzymes and their bioinformatics studies. Background: Cellulose is a long-chain polymer of glucose that hydrolyzes by cellulases to glucose molecules. In order to design the new biotechnological applications, some strategies have been used as increasing the efficiency of enzyme production, generating cost-effective enzymes, producing stable enzymes and identification of new strains. Objective: On the other hand, some bacteria special features have made them suitable candidates for the identification of the new source of enzymes. In this regard, some native strains of bacteria were screened. Method: These bacteria were grown on a culture containing the liquid M9 media containing CMC to ensure the synthesis of cellulase. The formation of a clear area in the culture medium indicated decomposition of cellulose. In the following, the DNA of these bacteria were extracted and their 16S rDNA genes were amplified. Result: The results show that nine samples were able to synthesize cellulase. In following, these strains were identified using 16S rDNA. The results show that these screened bacteria belonged to the Bacillus sp., Alcaligenes sp., Alcaligenes sp., and Enterobacter sp.conclusionThe enzyme activity analysis shows that the Bacillus toyonensis, Bacillus sp. strain XA15-411 Bacillus cereus have produced the maximum yield of cellulases. However, these amounts of enzyme production in these samples are not proportional to their growth rate. As the bacterial growth chart within 4 consecutive days shows that the Alcaligenes sp. Bacillus cereus, Bacillus toyonensis, Bacillus sp. strain XA15-411 have a maximum growth rate. The study of the phylogenetic tree also shows that Bacillus species are more abundant in the production of cellulase enzyme. These bioinformatics analyses show that the Bacillus species have different evolutionary relationships and evolved in different evolutionary time. Other: However, for maximum cellulase production by this bacteria, some information as optimum temperature, optimum pH, carbon and nitrogen sources are needed for the ideal formulation of media composition. The cellulase production is closely controlled in microorganisms and the cellulase yields appear to depend on a variety of factors. However, the further studies are needed for cloning, purification and application of these new microbial cellulases in the different commercial fields as in food, detergent, and pharmaceutical, paper, textile industries and also various chemical industries. However, these novel enzymes can be further engineered through rational design or using random mutagenesis techniques.

Abstract Background Penicillium funiculosum NCIM1228 is a non-model filamentous fungus that produces high-quality secretome for lignocellulosic biomass saccharification. Despite having desirable traits to be an industrial workhorse, P. funiculosum has been underestimated due to a lack of reliable genetic engineering tools. Tolerance towards common fungal antibiotics had been one of the major hindrances towards development of reliable transformation tools against the non-model fungi. In this study, we sought to understand the mechanism of drug tolerance of P. funiculosum and the provision to counter it. We then attempted to identify a robust method of transformation for genome engineering of this fungus. Results Penicillium funiculosum showed a high degree of drug tolerance towards hygromycin, zeocin and nourseothricin, thereby hindering their use as selectable markers to obtain recombinant transformants. Transcriptome analysis suggested a high level expression of efflux pumps belonging to ABC and MFS family, especially when complex carbon was used in growth media. Antibiotic selection medium was optimized using a combination of efflux pump inhibitors and suitable carbon source to prevent drug tolerability. Protoplast-mediated and Agrobacterium-mediated transformation were attempted for identifying efficiencies of linear and circular DNA in performing genetic manipulation. After finding Ti-plasmid-based Agrobacterium-mediated transformation more suitable for P. funiculosum, we improvised the system to achieve random and homologous recombination-based gene integration and deletion, respectively. We found single-copy random integration of the T-DNA cassette and could achieve 60% efficiency in homologous recombination-based gene deletions. A faster, plasmid-free, and protoplast-based CRISPR/Cas9 gene-editing system was also developed for P. funiculosum. To show its utility in P. funiculosum, we deleted the gene coding for the most abundant cellulase Cellobiohydrolase I (CBH1) using a pair of sgRNA directed towards both ends of cbh1 open reading frame. Functional analysis of ∆cbh1 strain revealed its essentiality for the cellulolytic trait of P. funiculosum secretome. Conclusions In this study, we addressed drug tolerability of P. funiculosum and developed an optimized toolkit for its genome modification. Hence, we set the foundation for gene function analysis and further genetic improvements of P. funiculosum using both traditional and advanced methods.
