Fermentative production and kinetics of cellulase protein on Trichoderma reesei using sugarcane bagasse and rice straw

TLDR
This is the first attempt of combining the synthetic substrate (xylose, lactose) with natural substrate (sugarcane bagasse, rice straw) and the mixture of substrates produced the highest maximal enzyme activity on cellulose with xylose.
Abstract
Cellulase a multienzyme made up of several proteins finds extensive applications in food, fermentation and textile industries. Trichoderma reesei is an efficient producer of cellulase protein. The comparative study was made on various carbon sources on the production of cellulase using strains of T. reesei QM 9414, 97.177 and Tm3. Pretreatment of sugarcane bagasse and rice straw offers very digestible cellulose and potentially less inhibition. Cellulase production was enhanced by multiple carbon sources because of diauxic pattern of utilization of substrates. This is the first attempt of combining the synthetic substrate (xylose, lactose) with natural substrate (sugarcane bagasse, rice straw). The mixture of substrates produced the highest maximal enzyme activity on cellulose with xylose, cellulose with lactose, bagasse with xylose, bagasse with lactose, rice straw with xylose and rice straw with lactose. In addition Monod growth kinetics and Leudeking piret product formation kinetics were studied using T. reesei with optimized medium under optimized conditions of inoculum concentration, D.O. level, agitator speed, temperature and pH.

Efficiency of Some Biocides as Safe Alternatives to Fungicides on Cercospora Leaf Spot Control, their Effect on Biochemical Constituent and Yield of Sugar Beet

TL;DR: It was concluded that biocides, Bio-Zeid, Plant guard and Biobac could be sprayed six times/season at 15 days intervals as alternatives to fungicide applications to control Cercospora leaf spot of sugar beet and to produce higher yields of root and sugar with better quality.

Utilisation of cellulose waste for the production of a chemical intermediate of economic interest

TL;DR: In this article, a single-step glucose production process using Trichoderma reesei strain was proposed to reduce the use of pure enzymes and pre-treatments that are usually necessary to carry out the enzymatic degradation.

Regulation of cellulase gene expression in the filamentous fungus Trichoderma reesei.

TL;DR: RNA slot blot experiments showed that no expression could be observed on glucose-containing medium and that high glucose levels abolish the inducing effect of sophorose, showing that distinct and clear-cut mechanisms of induction and glucose repression regulate cellulase expression in an actively growing fungus.

Influence of the carbon source on production of cellulases, hemicellulases and pectinases by Trichoderma reesei Rut C-30

TL;DR: The growth and enzyme production by Trichoderma reesei Rut C-30 using different lignocellulosic materials as carbon source were investigated and it was found that endoglucanase and endoxylanse activities were produced throughout the cultivations, whereas α-arabinosidase was induced late during the cultivation.

Purification and characterization of five cellulases and one xylanase from Penicillium brasilianum IBT 20888

TL;DR: The filamentous fungus Penicillium brasilianum IBT 20888 was cultivated on a mixture of 30 g l−1 cellulose and 10 g xylan for 111 h and the resulting culture filtrate was used for protein purification and revealed similarity in molecular mass, pI and hydrolytic properties suggested that these two enzymes were identical, but the smaller was lacking the cellulose-binding domain or an essential part of it.
