Journal ArticleDOI
Hydrolysis of lignocellulosic materials for ethanol production: a review.
Ye Sun,Jiayang Cheng +1 more
TL;DR: Simultaneous saccharification and fermentation effectively removes glucose, which is an inhibitor to cellulase activity, thus increasing the yield and rate of cellulose hydrolysis, thereby increasing the cost of ethanol production from lignocellulosic materials.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dilute acid pretreatment of rye straw and bermudagrass for ethanol production.
Ye Sun,Jay J. Cheng +1 more
TL;DR: Dilute sulfuric acid pretreatment of rye straw and bermudagrass before enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose was investigated in this study to investigate the enzymatics digestibility of the biomass.
Journal ArticleDOI
Expression and characterization of Acidothermus cellulolyticus E1 endoglucanase in transgenic duckweed Lemna minor 8627.
Ye Sun,Jay J. Cheng,Michael E. Himmel,Christopher D. Skory,William S. Adney,Steven R. Thomas,Brent Tisserat,Yufuko Nishimura,Yuri T. Yamamoto +8 more
TL;DR: Duckweed may offer new options for the expression of cellulolytic enzymes in transgenic plants, and the endoglucanase E1 enzyme was biologically active and the expression level was up to 0.24% of total soluble protein.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hydrolysis of Lignocellulosic Materials for Ethanol Production: A Review
Ye Sun,Jiayang Cheng +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a method to improve the efficiency of cellulose hydrolysis by pretreatment of lignocellulosic materials to remove lignin and hemicellulose.
