摘要:
A fungal α-amylase is provided from Aspergillus clavatus (AcAmy1). AcAmy1 has an optimal pH of 4.5 and is operable at 30-75° C., allowing the enzyme to be used in combination with a glucoamylase in a saccharification reaction. This obviates the necessity of running a saccharification reaction as a batch process, where the pH and temperature must be readjusted for optimal use of the α-amylase or glucoamylase. AcAmy1 also catalyzes the saccharification of starch substrates to an oligosaccharide composition significantly enriched in DP2 and (DP1+DP2) compared to the products of saccharification catalyzed by an α-amylase from Aspergillus kawachii. This facilitates the utilization of the oligosaccharide composition by a fermenting organism in a simultaneous saccharification and fermentation process, for example.

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to Trichoderma reesei glucoamylase (TrGA) variants having improved properties (e.g., improved thermostability, improved specific activity, and/or resistant to oxidation-related activity loss). Also provided are compositions comprising variant glucoamylases. These compositions are useful in various starch process applications.

A fungal alpha amylase is provided from Aspergillus clavatus (AcAmyl). AcAmyl has an optimal pH of 4.5 and is operable at 30-75 C, allowing the enzyme to be used in combination with a glucoamylase and a pullulanase in a saccharification reaction. This obviates the necessity of running a saccharification reaction as a batch process, where the pH and temperature must be readjusted for optimal use of the alpha amylase or glucoamylase. AcAmyl also catalyzes the saccharification of starch substrates to an oligosaccharide composition significantly enriched in DP2 and (DP1+DP2) compared to the products of saccharification catalyzed by an alpha amylase from Aspergillus kawachii.

摘要:
A conversion process provides using different co-cultured cell lines to express different sets of enzymes catalyzing the same process. For example, in a Simultaneous Saccharification and Co-Fermentation (SSCF) process, a starch substrate is converted to alcohol by contacting the substrate with yeast and Aspergillus niger cells. Because A. niger expresses an endogenous glucoamylase and alpha-amylase, these enzymes do not need to be added during the SSCF process.
