常压甘油自催化预处理麦草浓醪发酵纤维素乙醇

目前纤维素乙醇成本偏高的根本原因在于没有达到淀粉质乙醇发酵水平的"三高"(高浓度、高转化率和高效率)指标,提高水解糖液浓度和避免发酵抑制物来实现浓醪发酵,是解决问题的关键。文中以常压甘油自催化预处理麦草为底物,尝试采用不同发酵策略,探讨其浓醪发酵产纤维素乙醇的可行性。在优化培养条件(15%底物浓度,加酶量30 FPU/g干底物,温度37℃,接种量10%)下同步糖化发酵72 h,纤维素乙醇产量为31.2 g/L,转化率为73%,发酵效率0.43 g/(L·h);采用半同步(预酶解24 h)糖化发酵72 h,纤维素乙醇浓度达到33.7 g/L,转化率为79%,发酵效率为0.47 g/(L·h),其中(半)同步糖化发酵中90%以上纤维素已被糖化水解用于发酵;采用分批补料式半同步糖化发酵,补料到基质浓度相当于30%,发酵72 h时纤维素乙醇产量达到51.2 g/L,转化率为62%,发酵效率为0.71 g/(L·h)。在所有浓醪发酵中乙酸不足3 g/L,无糠醛和羟甲基糠醛等发酵抑制物。以上结果表明,常压甘油自催化预处理木质纤维素基质适用于纤维素乙醇发酵;分批补料式半同步糖化发酵策略可用来进行浓醪纤维素乙醇发酵;未来工作中提高基质纯度和强化酶解产糖是浓醪纤维素乙醇达到"三高"指标的关键。     

Logistic模型在不同还原糖初始浓度乙醇发酵中的应用

酿酒酵母(Saccharomyces cerevisiae)利用可发酵性糖生成乙醇的过程与效率受多种环境因素的影响。研究乙醇形成的动力学有利于理性认识乙醇形成机理,为放大与优化工艺条件提供理论指导。对Logistic模型方程重新参数化,将酵母生长动力学方程类比乙醇生成动力学,拟合性很好,对不同初始浓度还原糖的乙醇同步糖化发酵过程进行Logistic模型方程模拟,给出了乙醇浓度的显式函数模型,用310g/L玉米粉物料浓度的同步糖化发酵工艺,首次揭示在酿酒酵母工业菌株能够承受的一定的糖化醪还原糖浓度范围内,尽可能提高还原糖浓度至上限,可以缩短发酵周期,提高可发酵性糖转化为乙醇的转化率。这对于优化乙醇工业生产工艺条件、提高生产效率具有较重要的实践指导意义与应用价值。

酵母菌耐酒精机制的研究进展

乙醇是酵母菌发酵糖的重要产物之一．但是当乙醇在培养基中用积到一定浓度时,对酵母菌细胞产生有毒效应．然而,不同的酵母菌菌株对一定浓度的乙醇有不同的抗性,而且在不同培养条件下和生长在不同的培养基中同一株酵母菌对一定浓度的乙醇也有不同的抗性．最近几年来,有的学者从自然界中分离到了或通过遗传工程手段构建了一些能在短时间内产生高浓度酒精（发酵液中的乙醇浓度达到１７．５％ｖ／ｖ以上,而普通酵母菌只能产生９％一！！％ＶＩＶ乙醇）的酵母菌Ｉ‘］．因此酵母苗耐酒精的生化机制引起了许多研究者的浓厚兴趣,因为研究酵母…

Recent advances in the study of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus replication and pathogenesis

It has now been over twenty years since a novel herpesviral genome was identified in Kaposi's sarcoma biopsies. Since then, the cumulative research effort by molecular biologists, virologists, clinicians, and epidemiologists alike has led to the extensive characterization of this tumor virus, Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus(KSHV; also known as human herpesvirus 8(HHV-8)), and its associated diseases. Here we review the current knowledge of KSHV biology and pathogenesis, with a particular emphasis on new and exciting advances in the field of epigenetics. We also discuss the development and practicality of various cell culture and animal model systems to study KSHV replication and pathogenesis.     

The structure, reproduction and taxonomy of Vidalia and Osmundaria (Rhodophyta, Rhodomelaceae)

Comprises species occurring mostly in subtidal habitats in tropical, subtropical and warm-temperate areas of the world. An analysis of the type species, V. spiralis (Sonder) Lamouroux ex J. Agardh, a species from Australia, establishes basic characters for distinguishing species in the genus. These characters are (1) branching patterns of thalli, (2) flat blades that may be spiralled on their axis, (3) width of the blade, (4) primary or secondary derivation of sterile and fertile branchlets and (5) position of sterile and fertile branchlets on the thalli. Application of the latter two characters provides an important basic method for separation of species into three major groups. Osmundaria , a genus known only in southern Australia, was studied in relation to Vidalia , and its separation from the Vidalia assemblage is not accepted. Species of Vidalia therefore are transferred to the older genus name, Osmundaria. Two new species, Osmundaria papenfussii and Osmundaria oliveae are described from Natal. Confusion in the usage of the epithet, Vidalia fimbriala Brown ex Turner has been clarified, and Vidalia gregaria Falkenberg, described as an epiphyte on Osmundaria pro/ifera Lamouroux, is revealed to be young branches of the host, Osmundaria prolifera.     

New or rare chromosome counts in Artemisia L. (Asteraceae, Anthemideae) and related genera from Kazakhstan

Fifteen chromosome counts of six Artemisia taxa and one species of each of the genera Brachanthemum, Hippolytia, Kaschgaria, Lepidolopsis and Turaniphytum are reported from Kazakhstan. Three of them are new reports, two are not consistent with previous counts and the remainder are confirmations of very scarce (one to four) earlier records. All the populations studied have the same basic chromosome number, x = 9, with ploidy levels ranging from 2x to 6x. Some correlations between ploidy level, morphological characters and distribution are noted.

Selection with two alleles and complete dominance

For a plant selection model with frequency-independent viabilities, fertilities and selfing rates, it is shown that apart from global fixation, for certain parameter combinations a protected polymorphism and facultative fixation (either allele may become fixed according to initial frequencies) may both occur. Facultative fixation requires different selling rates for the dominant and recessive type. Protection of the polymorphism requires resource allocation for male and female function. In this connection the problem of purely genetically caused population extinction is discussed.
For general frequency dependence and regular segregation, the chances for establishment of a completely recessive gene are compared to those of a completely dominant gene. It is proven that the process of establishment of the recessive gene, despite a fitness advantage, may be considerably endangered by drift effects if random mating prevails. The recessive gene may reach the same effectivity in establishment as a dominant gene, only if the recessive homozygote mates exclusively with its own type during the period of establishment.
