Journal ArticleDOI
Yeast cell-surface display—applications of molecular display
Akihiko Kondo,Mitsuyoshi Ueda +1 more
TL;DR: With its ability to express many of the functional proteins necessary for post-translational modification and in a range of different sizes, the yeast-based molecular display system appears uniquely useful among the various display systems so far developed.
Journal ArticleDOI
A review of enzymes and microbes for lignocellulosic biorefinery and the possibility of their application to consolidated bioprocessing technology.
TL;DR: Recent advances in the development of microorganisms for the production of renewable chemicals and advanced biofuels, as well as ethanol, from lignocellulosic materials through consolidated bioprocessing are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biodiesel Fuel Production from Plant Oil Catalyzed by Rhizopus oryzae Lipase in a Water-Containing System without an Organic Solvent
Masaru Kaieda,Taichi Samukawa,Takeshi Matsumoto,Kazuhiro Ban,Akihiko Kondo,Yuji Shimada,Hideo Noda,Fumiki Nomoto,Koutaro Ohtsuka,Eiji Izumoto,Hideki Fukuda +10 more
TL;DR: A new enzymatic method of synthesizing methyl ester from plant oil and methanol in a solvent-free reaction system was developed and it is anticipated that such plant oil methyl esters can be used as a biodiesel fuel in the future.
Journal ArticleDOI
Direct and efficient production of ethanol from cellulosic material with a yeast strain displaying cellulolytic enzymes.
Yasuya Fujita,Shouji Takahashi,Mitsuyoshi Ueda,Atsuo Tanaka,Hirofumi Okada,Yasushi Morikawa,Takashi Kawaguchi,Motoo Arai,Hideki Fukuda,Akihiko Kondo +9 more
TL;DR: The construction of a novel cellulose-degrading yeast strain by genetically codisplaying two cellulolytic enzymes on the cell surface of Saccharomyces cerevisiae indicates that efficient simultaneous saccharification and fermentation of cellulose to ethanol are carried out by a recombinant yeast cells displaying cellulolytics enzymes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Perspectives on engineering strategies for improving biofuel production from microalgae — A critical review
TL;DR: This comprehensive review discusses recent advances in understanding the effects of major environmental stresses and the characteristics of various engineering operation strategies on the production of biofuels (mainly biodiesel and bioethanol) using microalgae.
