Bioconversion of dilute-acid pretreated sorghum bagasse to ethanol by Neurospora crassa

Bioethanol production from sweet sorghum bagasse (SB), the lignocellulosic solid residue obtained after extraction of sugars from sorghum stalks, can further improve the energy yield of the crop. The aim of the present work was to evaluate a cost-efficient bioconversion of SB to ethanol at high solids loadings (16?% at pretreatment and 8?% at fermentation), low cellulase activities (1-7 FPU/g SB) and co-fermentation of hexoses and pentoses. The fungus Neurospora crassa DSM 1129 was used, which exhibits both depolymerase and co-fermentative ability, as well as mixed cultures with Saccharomyces cerevisiae 2541. A dilute-acid pretreatment (sulfuric acid 2?g/100?g SB; 210?°C; 10?min) was implemented, with high hemicellulose decomposition and low inhibitor formation. The bioconversion efficiency of N. crassa was superior to S. cerevisiae, while their mixed cultures had negative effect on ethanol production. Supplementing the in situ produced N. crassa cellulolytic system (1.0 FPU/g SB) with commercial cellulase and β-glucosidase mixture at low activity (6.0 FPU/g SB) increased ethanol production to 27.6?g/l or 84.7?% of theoretical yield (based on SB cellulose and hemicellulose sugar content). The combined dilute-acid pretreatment and bioconversion led to maximum cellulose and hemicellulose hydrolysis 73.3?% and 89.6?%, respectively.     

Effect of different cellulase dosages on cell viability and ethanol production by Kluyveromyces marxianus in SSF processes

This study was aimed to study the effect of commercial cellulases (Celluclast 1.5 LFG) on Kluyveromyces marxianus CECT 10875 growth and ethanol production in SSF processes. Preliminary tests carried out in glucose (50 g/L) fermentation medium showed that high enzyme amounts (2.5-3.5 FPU/mL) could cause a negative effect on K. marxianus growth rate and viable cells number. However, the maximum ethanol production was not affected and about 86% of the theoretical (22 g/L) was reached in all cases independently of the enzyme dosage. In SSF experiments, cell viability was always affected by enzyme loading. Nevertheless, slight differences observed on cell viability during glucose fermentation processes with the detected concentrations of the additives did not justify the negative effect observed in SSF experiments.     

High solid simultaneous saccharification and fermentation of wet oxidized corn stover to ethanol

In this study ethanol was produced from corn stover pretreated by alkaline and acidic wet oxidation (WO) (195 degrees C, 15 min, 12 bar oxygen) followed by nonisothermal simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF). In the first step of the SSF, small amounts of cellulases were added at 50 degrees C, the optimal temperature of enzymes, in order to obtain better mixing condition due to some liquefaction. In the second step more cellulases were added in combination with dried baker's yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) at 30 degrees C. The phenols (0.4-0.5 g/L) and carboxylic acids (4.6-5.9 g/L) were present in the hemicellulose rich hydrolyzate at subinhibitory levels, thus no detoxification was needed prior to SSF of the whole slurry. Based on the cellulose available in the WO corn stover 83% of the theoretical ethanol yield was obtained under optimized SSF conditions. This was achieved with a substrate concentration of 12% dry matter (DM) acidic WO corn stover at 30 FPU/g DM (43.5 FPU/g cellulose) enzyme loading. Even with 20 and 15 FPU/g DM (corresponding to 29 and 22 FPU/g cellulose) enzyme loading, ethanol yields of 76 and 73%, respectively, were obtained. After 120 h of SSF the highest ethanol concentration of 52 g/L (6 vol.%) was achieved, which exceeds the technical and economical limit of the industrial-scale alcohol distillation. The SSF results showed that the cellulose in pretreated corn stover can be efficiently fermented to ethanol with up to 15% DM concentration. A further increase of substrate concentration reduced the ethanol yield significant as a result of insufficient mass transfer. It was also shown that the fermentation could be followed with an easy monitoring system based on the weight loss of the produced CO2.     

Enhancement of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Penicillium echinulatum</Emphasis> glycoside hydrolase enzyme complex

The enhancement of enzyme complex produced by Penicillium echinulatum grown in several culture media components (bagasse sugarcane pretreated by various methods, soybean meal, wheat bran, sucrose, and yeast extract) was studied to increment FPase, xylanase, pectinase, and β-glucosidase enzyme activities. The present results indicated that culture media composed with 10 g/L of the various bagasse pretreatment methods did not have any substantial influence with respect to the FPase, xylanase, and β-glucosidase attained maximum values of, respectively, 2.68 FPU/mL, 2.04, and 115.4 IU/mL. On the other hand, proposed culture media to enhance β-glucosidase production composed of 10 g/L steam-exploded bagasse supplemented with soybean flour 5.0 g/L, yeast extract 1.0 g/L, and sucrose 10.0 g/L attained, respectively, 3.19 FPU/mL and 3.06 IU/mL while xylanase was maintained at the same level. The proteomes obtained from the optimized culture media for enhanced FPase, xylanase, pectinase, and β-glucosidase production were analyzed using mass spectrometry and a panel of GH enzyme activities against 16 different substrates. Culture medium designed to enhance β-glucosidase activity achieved higher enzymatic activities values (13 measured activities), compared to the culture media for FPase/pectinase (9 measured activities) and xylanase (7 measured activities), when tested against the 16 substrates. Mass spectrometry analyses of secretome showed a consistent result and the greatest number of spectral counts of Cazy family enzymes was found in designed β-glucosidase culture medium, followed by FPase/pectinase and xylanase. Most of the Cazy identified protein was cellobiohydrolase (GH6 and GH7), endoglucanase (GH5), and endo-1,4-β-xylanase (GH10). Enzymatic hydrolysis of hydrothermally pretreated sugarcane bagasse performed with β-glucosidase enhanced cocktail achieved 51.4 % glucose yield with 10 % w/v insoluble solids at enzyme load of 15 FPU/g material. Collectively the results demonstrated that it was possible to rationally modulate the GH activity of the enzymatic complex secreted by P. echinulatum using adjustment of the culture medium composition. The proposed strategy may contribute to increase enzymatic hydrolysis of lignocellulosic materials.     

Optimization of culture medium for enhanced production of exopolysaccharide from Aureobasidium pullulans

Polysaccharides produced by microorganisms are utilized for a variety of purposes, including the use in cosmetics and as food additives. More recently, polysaccharides have been exploited by the medical and pharmaceutical industries, and those originated from many species of mushrooms have been especially useful in industrial applications; however, the production and synthesis of these compounds is costly and time consuming. In this study, we developed a method for low-cost production of exopolysaccharide (EPS) that effectively screens components and optimizes medium composition using statistical methods (Plackett-Burman and Box-Behnken design). As a result, we obtained the following optimized medium: sucrose 165.73 g/L, sodium nitrate 3.08 g/L, dipotassium phosphate 1.00 g/L, potassium chloride 0.50 g/L, magnesium sulfate 0.50 g/L, ferrous sulfate 0.01 g/L, and 0.71 g/L of Ashbya gossypii extract. The maximum production of about 29 g/L EPS was achieved in the optimized medium during 84 h batch fermentation.

Immunopurification of highly specific antibodies to calmodulin from Neurospora crassa

Abstract Highly specific antibodies against calmodulin from Neurospora crassa were produced in rabbits. These antibodies were immunopurified by chromatography on Neurospora calmodulin-Sepharose, and had a titer for purified calmodulin from Neurospora crassa and bovine testis of 80 ng/ml and 2.5 μg/ml respectively. By immunoblot, as little as 8 ng of pure Neurospora calmodulin could be detected, and the antibodies revealed calmodulin in crude homogenates from Neurospora crassa and Aspergillus nidulans while in homogenates from Allomyces arbuscula, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Dictyostelium discoideum and bovine testis, calmodulin remained undetected.     

Quantitative proteomic approach for cellulose degradation by Neurospora crassa

Conversion of plant biomass to soluble sugars is the primary bottleneck associated with production of economically viable cellulosic fuels and chemicals. To better understand the biochemical route that filamentous fungi use to degrade plant biomass, we have taken a quantitative proteomics approach to characterizing the secretome of Neurospora crassa during growth on microcrystalline cellulose. Thirteen proteins were quantified in the N. crassa secretome using a combination of Absolute Quantification (AQUA) and Absolute SILAC to verify protein concentrations. Four of these enzymes including 2 cellobiohydrolases (CBH-1 and GH6-2), an endoglucanase (GH5-1), and a β-glucosidase (GH3-4) were then chosen to reconstitute a defined cellulase mixture in vitro. These enzymes were assayed alone and in mixtures and the activity of the reconstituted set was then compared to the crude mixture of N. crassa secretome proteins. Results show that while these 4 proteins represent 63-65% of the total secretome by weight, they account for just 43% of the total activity on microcrystalline cellulose after 24 h of hydrolysis. This result and quantitative proteomic data on other less abundant proteins secreted by Neurospora suggest that proteins other than canonical fungal cellulases may play an important role in cellulose degradation by fungi.     

Application of factorial designs for optimization of cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase production from Klebsiella pneumoniae pneumoniae AS-22.

Production of cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase (CGTase) from Klebsiella pneumoniae pneumoniae AS-22 was optimized in shake flasks using a statistical experimental design approach. Effect of various components in the basal medium, like carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, and mineral sources as well as initial pH and temperature, were tested on enzyme production. The optimum concentrations of the selected media components were determined using statistical experimental designs. Two level fractional factorial designs in five variables, namely, dextrin, peptone, yeast extract, ammonium dihydrogen orthophosphate, and magnesium sulphate concentrations were constructed. The optimum medium composition thus found consisted of 49.3 g/L dextrin, 20.6 g/L peptone, 18.3 g/L yeast extract, 6.7 g/L ammonium dihydrogen orthophosphate, and 0.5 g/L magnesium sulphate. The maximum CGTase activity obtained was 21.4 U/mL in 28 h of incubation. The cell growth and CGTase production profiles were studied with the optimized medium in shake flasks and in 1-L fermenters. It was observed that the enzyme production was growth associated both in shake flask and in fermenter, although it was slower in shake flask. The maximum CGTase activity obtained in the fermenter was 32.5 U/mL in 16 h. The optimized medium resulted in about 9-fold increase in the enzyme activity as compared to that obtained in the basal medium in shake flask as well as in fermenter.     

OPTIMIZATION OF FERMENTATION MEDIUM FOR ACETOIN PRODUCTION BY Bacillus subtilis SF4-3 USING STATISTICAL METHODS

To improve the acetoin-producing ability of Bacillus subtilis SF4-3, isolated from “natto,” a Japanese traditional food, the fermentation medium was optimized in shake-flask fermentation by statistically designed methods. Based on results of the single-factor experiment, orthogonal experiment, and Plackett–Burman design, yeast extract, corn steep liquor, and urea were identified as showing significant influence on the acetoin production. Subsequently, the optimum combination of the three factors was investigated by the Box–Behnken design (BBD) of response surface methodology (RSM) in order to further enhance the acetoin production. The maximum acetoin yield of 45.4 g/L was predicted when the concentrations of yeast extract, corn steep liquor, and urea were 8.5 g/L, 14.6 g/L, and 3.8 g/L, respectively. The results were further confirmed in triplicate experiments using the optimized medium (glucose 160 g/L, yeast extract 8.5 g/L, corn steep liquor 14.6 g/L, urea 3.8 g/L, manganese sulfate 0.05 g/L, ferrous sulfate 0.05 g/L), and an acetoin yield of 46.2 g/L was obtained in the validation experiment, which was in agreement with the prediction. After the optimization of medium components, an increase of 36.28% in acetoin production was achieved in comparison to that at the initial medium levels.
