摘要:
Improved haa1 transcriptional regulatory proteins, polynucleotides encoding improved haa1 transcriptional regulatory proteins and vectors and cells thereof are provided, as well as methods for converting a cellulose-containing biomass feedstock to ethanol using improved haa1 transcriptional regulatory proteins and cells expressing heterologous haa1 transcriptional regulatory proteins as disclosed herein.
摘要:
The present disclosure provides methods for generating sugars from a cellulosic biomass. The methods combine treatment of the biomass using a high-shear milling device and saccharification of the biomass to partially hydrolyze the biomass. The biomass can be saccharified either after or simultaneously with the high-shear milling treatement. The partially hydrolyzed biomass is then separated into a solids stream with saccharification enzymes, and a liquid stream with sugars. The solids stream and associated enzymes are further incubated under saccharification conditions to produce additional sugars, or are recycled and added to fresh biomass, which is saccharified under high-shear milling conditions. The methods result in improved conversion of cellulosic biomass to glucose.
摘要:
Described herein are beta-glucosidase enzymes that have improved beta-glucosidase activity compared to a control beta-glucosidase enzyme. The improved beta-glucosidase enzymes are useful for converting a cellulosic biomass to fermentable sugars such as glucose. Also described are isolated polynucleotides that encode polypeptides having improved beta-glucosidase activity, expression cassettes for expressing the improved beta-glucosidase polypeptides, and cells, such as yeast cells, transformed with the expression cassettes.
摘要:
Methods and systems for increasing the yield of sugars from a biomass, such as a lignocellulosic biomass, are described. A non-ionic organic polymer is contacted with the biomass during the saccharification reaction, and the hydrolyzed mixture is separated using a filter into a permeate and a retentate, where the non-ionic organic polymer is present in the retentate. The retentate with the polymer is recycled to the hydrolysis mixture, which increased the yield of sugars using less saccharification enzymes. The methods thus allow for increased cost savings by reducing the amount of enzymes required to convert the biomass to sugars.
