20090093039 | REGULATABLE GROWTH OF FILAMENTOUS FUNGI - The present invention generally relates to hyphal growth in fungi and in particular describes the modulation of genes associated with hyphal growth in filamentous fungi. The present invention provides methods and systems for the production of proteins and/or chemicals from filamentous fungi which comprise modulation of genes associated with hyphal growth. Specifically, the present invention is directed to a full length cotA gene, its gene product and methods of use. | 04-09-2009 |
20090311752 | Conditioning Biomass for Microbial Growth - The present invention relates to methods for improving the yield of microbial processes that use lignocellulose biomass as a nutrient source. The methods comprise conditioning a composition comprising lignocellulose biomass with an enzyme composition that comprises a phenol oxidizing enzyme. The conditioned composition can support a higher rate of growth of microorganisms in a process. In one embodiment, a laccase composition is used to condition lignocellulose biomass derived from non-woody plants, such as corn and sugar cane. The invention also encompasses methods for culturing microorganisms that are sensitive to inhibitory compounds in lignocellulose biomass. The invention further provides methods of making a product by culturing the production microorganisms in conditioned lignocellulose biomass. | 12-17-2009 |
20100093061 | Assays for Improved Fungal Strains - The invention relates to methods for obtaining improved strains of filamentous ascomycete fungus, such as | 04-15-2010 |
20100129835 | Methods for Selecting Improved Strains - The present invention relates to a system for improving a strain of filamentous fungus that is useful in producing an enzyme of interest such as a cellulase. The invention involves generating genetic diversity in a strain of fungal cells, subjecting the population of cells to selection, and isolating the cells that overproduce the enzyme. The selection techniques involve culturing the population of cells in purified cellulose and/or at an elevated temperature that is adverse to production of the enzyme. | 05-27-2010 |
