A variety of raw materials have been used in fermentation process. This study shows the use of rice straw hemicellulosic hydrolysate, as the only source of nutrient, to produce high added-value products. In the present work, the activity of the enzymes xylose reductase (XR); xylitol dehydrogenase (XD); and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) during cultivation of Candida guilliermondii on rice straw hemicellulosic hydrolysate was measured and correlated with xylitol production under different pH values (around 4.5 and 7.5) and initial xylose concentration (around 30 and 70 g l(-1)). Independent of the pH value and xylose concentration evaluated, the title of XD remained constant. On the other hand, the volumetric activity of G6PD increased whereas the level of XR decreased when the initial xylose concentration was increased from 30 to 70 g l(-1). The highest values of xylitol productivity (Q (P) approximately 0.40 g l(-1)) and yield factor (Y (P/S) approximately 0.60 g g(-1)) were reached at highest G6PD/XR ratio and lowest XR/XD ratio. These results suggest that NADPH concentrations influence the formation of xylitol more than the activity ratios of the enzymes XR and XD. Thus, an optimal rate between G6PD and XR must be reached in order to optimize the xylitol production. 相似文献

Two new effective microbial producers of inulinases were isolated from Jerusalem artichoke tubers grown in Thailand and identified
as Aspergillus niger TISTR 3570 and Candida
guilliermondii TISTR 5844. The inulinases produced by both these microorganisms were appropriate for hydrolysing inulin to fructose as the
principal product. An initial inulin concentration of ∼100 g l−1 and the enzyme concentration of 0.2 U g−1 of substrate, yielded 37.5 g l−1 of fructose in 20 h at 40°C when A. niger TISTR 3570 inulinase was the biocatalyst. The yield of fructose on inulin was 0.39 g g−1. Under identical conditions, the yeast inulinase afforded 35.3 g l−1 of fructose in 25 h. The fructose yield was 0.35 g g−1 of substrate. The fructose productivities were 1.9 g l−1 h−1 and 1.4 g l−1 h−1 for the mold and yeast enzymes, respectively. After 20 h of reaction, the mold enzyme hydrolysate contained 53% fructose
and more than 41% of initial inulin had been hydrolysed. Using the yeast enzymes, the hydrolysate contained nearly 38% fructose
at 25 h and nearly 36% of initial inulin had been hydrolysed. The A. niger TISTR 3570 inulinases exhibited both endo-inulinase and exo-inulinase activities. In contrast, the yeast inulinases displayed
mainly exo-inulinase activity. The mold and yeast crude inulinases mixed in the activity ratio of 5:1 proved superior to individual
crude inulinases in hydrolysing inulin to fructose. The enzyme mixture provided a better combination of endo- and exo-inulinase
activities than did the crude extracts of either the mold or the yeast individually. 相似文献

Continuous fermentation of sugarcane bagasse hemicellulosic hydrolysate by the yeast Candida guilliermondii FTI 20037 was used for xylitol production from xylose. Experiments were carried out in a reactor with 1.25 l of treated hydrolysate, at 30 °C and 300 rpm. A 22 full-factorial central composite design was employed for experimental study and analysis of the results. A statistical analysis of the results showed that the effects of the pH and dilution rate (D), the interactions between these variables and the second-order effect of D on the xylitol volumetric productivity (Qp) were significant at a 95% confidence level. The second-order effect of pH was also significant at a 90% confidence level. The kLa effect on the Qp was not significant. A volumetric productivity of 0.68 g/l h, representing 95.8% of the predicted value (0.72 g/l h), was obtained. 相似文献

Sugarcane bagasse hemicellulose hydrolysates, pretreated by either over-liming or electrodialysis and, supplemented with nutrient
materials, were fermented to ethanol using Pachysolen tannophilus DW06. Compared with detoxification by over-liming, detoxification by electrodialysis decreased the loss of sugar and increased
the acetic acid removal, leading to better fermentability. A batch culture with electrodialytically pretreated hydrolysate
as substrate was developed giving 21 g ethanol l−1 with a yield of 0.35 g g−1 sugar and productivity of 0.59 g l−1 h−1. 相似文献

Saccharomyces cerevisiae grows very poorly in dilute acid lignocellulosic hydrolyzate during the anaerobic fermentation for fuel ethanol production.
However, yeast cells grown aerobically on the hydrolyzate have increased tolerance for the hydrolyzate. Cultivation of yeast
on part of the hydrolyzate has therefore the potential of enabling increased ethanol productivity in the fermentation of the
hydrolyzate. To evaluate the ability of the yeast to grow in the hydrolyzate, fed-batch cultivations were run using the ethanol
concentration as input variable to control the feed-rate. The yeast then grew in an undetoxified hydrolyzate with a specific
growth rate of 0.19 h−1 by controlling the ethanol concentration at a low level during the cultivation. However, the biomass yield was lower for
the cultivation on hydrolyzate compared to synthetic media: with an ethanol set-point of 0.25 g/l the yield was 0.46 g/g on
the hydrolyzate, compared to 0.52 g/g for synthetic media. The main reason for the difference was not the ethanol production per se, but a significant production of glycerol at a high specific growth rate. The glycerol production may be attributed to an
insufficient respiratory capacity. 相似文献

Batch xylitol production from wheat straw hemicellulosic hydrolysate using Candida guilliermondii in a stirred tank reactor 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Batch production of xylitol from the hydrolysate of wheat straw hemicellulose using Candida guilliermondii was carried out in a stirred tank reactor (agitation speed of 300 rpm, aeration rate of 0.6 vvm and initial cell concentration of 0.5 g l–1). After 54 h, xylitol production from 30.5 g xylose l–1 reached 27.5 g l–1, resulting in a xylose-to-xylitol bioconversion yield of 0.9 g g–1 and a productivity of 0.5 g l–1 h–1. 相似文献

Summary Xylitol production from sugarcane bagasse hemicellulosic hydrolyzate was evaluated in a fluidized bed reactor operated in semi-continuous mode, using cells immobilized on porous glass. The fermentative process was performed during five successive cycles of 72 h each one. The lowest xylitol production occurred in the first cycle, where a high cell concentration (12 g l−1) was observed. In the subsequent cycles the xylitol concentration was ever increasing due to the cells adaptation to the medium. In the last one, 18 g xylitol l−1 was obtained with a yield factor of 0.44 g g−1 and volumetric productivity of 0.32 g l−1 h−1. 相似文献

The fermentation of d-glucose and d-xylose mixtures by the yeast Candida tropicalis NBRC 0618 has been studied under the most favourable operation conditions for the culture, determining the most adequate
initial proportion in these sugars for xylitol production. In all the experiments a synthetic culture medium was used, with
an initial total substrate concentration of 25 g L−1, a constant pH of 5.0 and a temperature of 30 °C. From the experimental results, it was deduced that the highest values of
specific rates of production and of overall yield in xylitol were achieved for the mixtures with the highest percentage of
d-xylose, specifically in the culture with the initial d-glucose and d-xylose concentrations of 1 and 24 g L−1, respectively, with an overall xylitol yield of 0.28 g g−1. In addition, the specific rates of xylitol production declined over the time course of the culture and the formation of
this bioproduct was favoured by the presence of small quantities of d-glucose. The sum of the overall yield values in xylitol and ethanol for all the experiments ranged from 0.26 to 0.56 g bioproduct/g
total substrate. 相似文献

Flower-visiting beetles belonging to three species of Cetoniidae were collected on three mountains near Beijing, China, and yeasts were isolated from the gut of the insects collected. Based
on the 26S rDNA D1/D2 domain and internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region sequence analysis and phenotypic characterization,
four novel anamorphic yeast species located in the Candida albicans/Lodderomyces elongisporus clade were identified from 18 of the strains isolated. The new species and type strains are designated as Candida blackwellae AS 2.3639T (=CBS 10843T), Candida jiufengensis AS 2.3688T (=CBS 10846T), Candida oxycetoniae AS 2.3656T (=CBS 10844T), and Candida pseudojiufengensis AS 2.3693T (=CBS 10847T). C. blackwellae sp. nov. was basal to the branch formed by C. albicans and C. dubliniensis with moderately strong bootstrap support. The closest relative of C. oxycetoniae was L. elongisporus. C. jiufengensis sp. nov. and C. pseudojiufengensis sp. nov. were closely related with each other and formed a branch in a subclade represented by C. parapsilosis and L. elongisporus. 相似文献

The genotypes of 221 recent isolates of Candida albicans from various clinical specimens of 213 patients admitted to the University Malaya Medical Centre, Malaysia was determined based on the amplification of a transposable intron region in the 25 S rRNA gene. The analyses of 178 C. albicansisolated from nonsterile clinical specimens showed that they could be classified into three genotypes: genotype A (138 isolates), genotype B (38 isolates) and genotype C (2 isolates). The genotyping of 43 clinical isolates from sterile specimens showed that they belonged to genotype A (29 isolates), genotype B (10 isolates), genotype C (2 isolates) and genotype D (2 isolates). The overall distribution of C. albicans genotypes in sterile and nonsterile specimens appeared similar, with genotype A being the most predominant type. This study reported the identification of C. dubliniensis (genotype D) in 2 HIV-negative patients with systemic candidiasis, which were missed by the routine mycological procedure. The study demonstrated the genetic diversity of clinical isolates of C. albicans in Malaysia. 相似文献

Uricase is an important medical enzyme which can be used to determine urate in clinical analysis, to therapy gout, hyperuricemia, and tumor lysis syndrome. Uricase of Candida utilis was successfully expressed in Hansenula polymorpha under the control of methanol oxidase promoter using Saccharomyces cerevisiae alpha-factor signal peptide as the secretory sequence. Recombinant H. polymorpha MU200 with the highest extracellular uricase production was characterized with three copies of expression cassette and selected for process optimization for the production of recombinant enzyme. Among the parameters investigated in shaking flask cultures, the pH value of medium and inoculum size had great influence on the recombinant uricase production. The maximum extracellular uricase yield of 2.6 U/ml was obtained in shaking flask culture. The yield of recombinant uricase was significantly improved by the combined use of a high cell-density cultivation technique and a pH control strategy of switching culture pH from 5.5 to 6.5 in the induction phase. After induction for 58 h, the production of recombinant uricase reached 52.3 U/ml (about 2.1 g/l of protein) extracellularly and 60.3 U/ml (about 2.4 g/l) intracellularly in fed-batch fermentation, which are much higher than those expressed in other expression systems. To our knowledge, this is the first report about the heterologous expression of uricase in H. polymorpha. 相似文献

Oleic acid esters were shown to be the best carbon source for both cell growth and lipase production by Candida rugosa. Use of a cosolvent, dodecane, in fermentations improved the solubility of solid substrates and increased oxygen solubility. This resulted in the highest lipase activity in batch fermentation with glycerol trioleate and dodecane. Lipase activity reached 77.1 units ml–1. 相似文献

The FDH1 gene of Candida boidinii encodes an NAD+-dependent formate dehydrogenase, which catalyzes the last reaction in the methanol dissimilation pathway. FDH1 expression is strongly induced by methanol, as are the promoters of the genes AOD1 (alcohol oxidase) and DAS1 (dihydroxyacetone synthase). FDH1 expression can be induced by formate when cells are grown on a medium containing glucose as a carbon source, whereas expression of AOD1 and DAS1 is completely repressed in the presence of glucose. Using deletion analyses, we identified two cis-acting regulatory elements, termed UAS-FM and UAS-M, respectively, in the 5 non-coding region of the FDH1 gene. Both elements were necessary for full induction of the FDH1 promoter by methanol, while only the UAS-FM element was required for full induction by formate. Irrespective of whether induction was achieved with methanol or formate, the UAS-FM element enhanced the level of induction of the FDH1 promoter in a manner dependent on the number of copies, but independent of their orientation, and also converted the ACT1 promoter from a constitutive into an inducible element. Our results not only provide a powerful promoter for heterologous gene expression, but also yield insights into the mechanism of regulation of FDH1 expression at the molecular level.Communicated by C.

The xylitol dehydrogenase-encoding Arxula adeninivorans AXDH gene was isolated and characterized. The gene includes a coding sequence of 1107 bp encoding a putative 368 amino acid protein of 40.3 kDa. The identity of the gene was confirmed by a high degree of homology of the derived amino acid sequence to that of xylitol dehydrogenases from different sources. The gene activity was regulated by carbon source. In media supplemented with xylitol, D-sorbitol and D-xylose induction of the AXDH gene and intracellular accumulation of the encoded xylitol dehydrogenase was observed. This activation pattern was confirmed by analysis of AXDH promoter – GFP gene fusions. The enzyme characteristics were analysed from isolates of native strains as well as from those of recombinant strains expressing the AXDH gene under control of the strong A. adeninivorans-derived TEF1 promoter. For both proteins, a molecular mass of ca. 80 kDa was determined corresponding to a dimeric structure, an optimum pH at 7.5 and a temperature optimum at 35 °C. The enzyme oxidizes polyols like xylitol and D-sorbitol whereas the reduction reaction is preferred when providing D-xylulose, D-ribulose and L-sorbose as substrates. Enzyme activity exclusively depends on NAD+ or NADH as coenzymes. 相似文献

The extracellular inulinase structural gene was isolated from the genomic DNA of the marine yeast Pichia guilliermondii strain 1 by PCR. The gene had an open reading frame of 1,542 bp long encoding an inulinase. The coding region of the gene
was not interrupted by any intron. It encoded 514 amino acid residues of a protein with a putative signal peptide of 18 amino
acids and the calculated molecular mass of 58.04 kDa. The protein sequence deduced from the inulinase structural gene contained
the inulinase consensus sequences (WMNXPNGL) and (RDPKVF). It also had ten conserved putative N-glycosylation sites. The inulinase from P. guilliermondii strain 1 was found to be closely related to that from Kluyveromyces marxianus. The inulinase gene without the signal sequence was subcloned into pPICZαA expression vector and expressed in Pichia pastoris X-33. The expressed fusion protein was analyzed by SDS-PAGE and western blotting and a specific band with molecular mass
of about 60 kDa was found. Enzyme activity assay verified the recombinant protein as an inulinase. A maximum activity of 58.7 ± 0.12 U/ml
was obtained from the culture supernatant of P. pastoris X-33 harboring the inulinase gene. A large amount of monosaccharides, disaccharides and oligosaccharides were detected after
the hydrolysis of inulin with the crude recombinant inulinase. 相似文献

Candida dubliniensis, yeast closely related to Candida albicans, is a new pathogen associated mainly with infections of immunocompromised hosts. In this study, we report the first isolation of three isolates of C. dubliniensis in Slovakia. The first selection of both C. albicans and C. dubliniensis from the other Candida species was done on the basis of specific green color of primoculture grown on CHROMagar Candida. The presumptive identification was completed by supplemental tests: germ-tube formation, production of chlamydospores, ability or inability to grow at 42 and 45,°C and by commercial set API 20C AUX. Parallely, the discrimination between both species was performed by PCR assay using primers specific for Candida dubliniensis 相似文献

We report the purification and characterization of two thermophilic xylanases from the mesophilic bacteria Cellulomonas flavigena grown on sugarcane bagasse (SCB) as the only carbon source. Extracellular xylanase activity produced by C. flavigena was found both free in the culture supernatant and associated with residual SCB. To identify some of the molecules responsible
for the xylanase activity in the substrate-bound fraction, residual SCB was treated with 3 M guanidine hydrochloride and then
with 6 M urea. Further analysis of the eluted material led to the identification of two xylanases Xyl36 (36 kDa) and Xyl53
(53 kDa). The pI for Xyl36 was 5.0, while the pI for Xyl53 was 4.5. Xyl36 had a K
m value of 1.95 mg/ml, while Xyl53 had a K
m value of 0.78 mg/ml. In addition to SCB, Xyl36 and Xyl53 were also able to bind to insoluble oat spelt xylan and Avicel,
as shown by substrate-binding assays. Xyl36 and Xyl53 showed optimal activity at pH 6.5, and at optimal temperature 65 and
55°C, respectively. Xyl36 and Xyl53 retained 24 and 35%, respectively, of their original activity after 8 h of incubation
at their optimal temperature. As far as we know, this is the first study on the thermostability properties of purified xylanases
from microorganisms belonging to the genus Cellulomonas. 相似文献

Verticillium lecanii is an entomopathogen with high potential in biological control of pests. We developed a solid-state fermentation with sugarcane
bagasse as carrier absorbing liquid medium to propagate V. lecanii spores. Using statistical experimental design, we optimized the medium composition for spore production. We first used one-factor-at-a-time
design to identify corn flour and yeast extract as the best carbon and nitrogen sources for the spore production of V. lecanii. Then, we used two-level fractional factorial design to confirm corn flour, yeast extract, and KH2PO4 as important factors significantly affecting V. lecanii spore production. Finally, we optimized these selected variables using a central composite design and response surface method.
The optimal medium composition was (grams per liter): corn flour 35.79, yeast 8.69, KH2PO4 1.63, K2HPO4 0.325, and MgSO4 0.325. Under optimal conditions, spore production reached 1.1 × 1010 spores/g dried carrier, much higher than that on wheat bran (1.7 × 109 spores/g initial dry matter). 相似文献
