Fermentative production and kinetics of cellulase protein on Trichoderma reesei using sugarcane bagasse and rice straw
TL;DR: 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.

Abstract: Effect of some nutritional and environmental factors on g ro wt h and cellulase production 3 by Bacillus alcalophilus S39 and Bacillus amyloliquefaciens C2 was inves tigated. Results indicated t h a t 1% carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) and 0.7% yeas t extract were mos t effective as the carbon an d nitro g e n s o urces respectively. Initial pH 7 and 3% inoculum s ize found to be optimal for growth and cellu la se production. Incubation temperature at 30 and 45oC achieved the highes t activity of cellulase 3 for Bacillus alcalophilus S39 and Bacillus amyloliquefaciens C2 respectively, and the suitable shaking rate was 150 and 200 rpm.

TL;DR: In this article, a fermentation process using hemicellulose-derived carbohydrates for the production of cellulase mixtures with a high proportion of cellulases relative to HBSs is provided.
Abstract: A fermentation process using hemicellulose-derived carbohydrates for the production of cellulase mixtures with a high proportion of cellulases relative to hemicellulases is provided. The cellulases produced by the process of the invention are further characterized by high specific productivity. The resulting cellulase mixtures comprise at least two times more cellulase than hemicellulase and are useful for the hydrolysis of cellulosic substrated, particularly, pretreated lignocellulosic substrate.

TL;DR: In this article, different pre-treatment methods were reviewed for SCB, both alkaline and alkali-acid process reveal efficient and successful approaches for obtaining higher glucose production from hydrolysis.
Abstract: Sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum) bagasse (SCB) is a biomass of agricultural waste obtained from sugarcane processing that has been found in abundance globally. Due to its abundance in nature, researchers have been harnessing this biomass for numerous applications such as in energy and environmental sustainability. However, before it could be optimally utilised, it has to be pre-treated using available methods. Different pre-treatment methods were reviewed for SCB, both alkaline and alkali–acid process reveal efficient and successful approaches for obtaining higher glucose production from hydrolysis. Procedures for hydrolysis were evaluated, and results indicate that pre-treated SCB was susceptible to acid and enzymatic hydrolysis as > 80% glucose yield was obtained in both cases. The SCB could achieve a bio-ethanol (a biofuel) yield of > 0.2 g/g at optimal conditions and xylitol (a bio-product) yield at > 0.4 g/g in most cases. Thermochemical processing of SCB also gave excellent biofuel yields. The plethora of products obtained in this regard have been catalogued and elucidated extensively. As found in this study, the SCB could be used in diverse applications such as adsorbent, ion exchange resin, briquettes, ceramics, concrete, cement and polymer composites. Consequently, the SCB is a biomass with great potential to meet global energy demand and encourage environmental sustainability.

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.
Abstract: Basic features of regulation of expression of the genes encoding the cellulases of the filamentous fungus Trichoderma reesei QM9414, the genes cbh1 and cbh2 encoding cellobiohydrolases and the genes egl1, egl2 and egl5 encoding endoglucanases, were studied at the mRNA level. The cellulase genes were coordinately expressed under all conditions studied, with the steady-state mRNA levels of cbh1 being the highest. Solka floc cellulose and the disaccharide sophorose induced expression to almost the same level. Moderate expression was observed when cellobiose or lactose was used as the carbon source. It was found that glycerol and sorbitol do not promote expression but, unlike glucose, do not inhibit it either, because the addition of 1 to 2 mM sophorose to glycerol or sorbitol cultures provokes high cellulase expression levels. These carbon sources thus provide a useful means to study cellulase regulation without significantly affecting the growth of the fungus. 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. The results clearly show that distinct and clear-cut mechanisms of induction and glucose repression regulate cellulase expression in an actively growing fungus. However, derepression of cellulase expression occurs without apparent addition of an inducer once glucose has been depleted from the medium. This expression seems not to arise simply from starvation, since the lack of carbon or nitrogen as such is not sufficient to trigger significant expression.

TL;DR: This mini-review summarises the considerable amount of data accumulated over the past three decades regarding promoters of genes encoding hydrolytic enzymes, inducer molecules, and models for the recognition of the insoluble substrates cellulose and xylan.
Abstract: The genus Trichoderma comprises a group of filamentous ascomycetes that are now widely used in industrial applications because of their ability to produce extracellular hydrolases in large amounts. In addition, strong inducible promoters together with high secretory capacity have made Trichoderma an attractive host for heterologous protein production. Several promoters of genes encoding hydrolytic enzymes have been investigated in detail regarding their cis-acting elements and trans-acting factors. Potent inducer molecules, for both xylanolytic and cellulolytic enzyme systems, have been identified and characterized. Furthermore, models for the recognition of the insoluble substrates cellulose and xylan have been developed based on a large set of experiments. This mini-review summarises the considerable amount of data accumulated over the past three decades.
