Problems solved by technology

However, the challenge of introducing such non-stoichiometric ATP depletion, especially for industrial applications, is to fine-tune the positive effects with reduced cellular robustness (Gombert and van Maris, supra)

[0111] Materials and Methods

[0112] Liquefaction preparation:

[0113] The liquefied product (corn flour slurry) was added by adding 600ppm urea, 0.124SAPU / g ds FERMGEN TM (Acid fungal protease) 2.5x, 0.33 GAU / g ds TrGA (Trichoderma glucoamylase) and 1.46 SSU / g dsAKAA (Aspergillus alpha-amylase), adjusted to pH 5.4.

[0114] Serum Bottle Assay:

[0115] Yeast cells were inoculated into 2 mL of YPD in a 24-well plate, and the culture was grown overnight to an OD between 25-30. 2.5 mL of liquefied fluid was transferred to serum vials (Chemglass, Cat. No.: CG-4904-01 ), and yeast was added to each vial to a final OD of approximately 0.4-0.6. Install the cap of the vial and pierce it with a needle (BD, Cat. No. 305111) for ventilation (to release CO 2 ), and then incubated at 32°C for 65 hours with shaking at 200RPM.

[0136] Generation of yeast strains expressing glucose-specific, ATP-mediated transporters

[0137] Will The GOLD yeast strain (Martrex, Inc., MD, USA; referred to herein as "FG") was used as a parental strain to introduce the AtSTP9S expression cassette. With containing from the plasmid pZK41Wn-H3SP9 ( figure 2 The 2,949bp SwaI fragment of the AtSTP9S expression cassette of ) and the plasmid pYRH426 transformed the cells. A transformant that integrated the SwaI fragment from pZK41Wn-H3SP9 downstream of the YHL041W locus was selected and named strain G027.

[0138] The new FG yeast strain G027 was grown in vial cultures together with its parental strain FG, and its fermentation products were analyzed as described in Example 1. Properties for ethanol, glycerol and acetic acid production are shown in Table 3.

Abstract

Described are compositions and methods relating to modified yeast expressing exogenous, or increased amounts, of glucose-specific, ATP-mediated transporters. The modified yeast produces an increased amount of ethanol compared to parental cells. Such yeast is particularly useful for large-scale ethanol production from starch substrates.

Description

technical field [0001] The compositions and methods of the invention relate to modified yeast with glucose-specific, ATP-mediated transporters. The modified yeast produces increased amounts of ethanol in starch hydrolyzate fermentation compared to an otherwise identical yeast. This yeast is particularly useful for the large-scale production of ethanol from starch substrates. Background technique [0002] The first generation of yeast-based ethanol production converts sugar into fuel ethanol. The annual fuel ethanol production by yeast worldwide is about 90 billion liters (Gombert, A.K. and van Maris. A.J. (2015) Curr. Opin. Biotechnol. 33:81-86). It is estimated that approximately 70% of the cost of ethanol production is feedstock. Because the production volumes are so large, even a small increase in yield would have a huge economic impact on the industry. [0003] Biochemically, the conversion of glucose to ethanol and carbon dioxide is redox-neutral with a maximum theo...
