Penicillium decumbens 114-2 is a fast-growing filamentous fungus which secretes a variety of lignocellulolytic enzymes. Its catabolite-repression-resistant mutant JU-A10 with high secretion capacity of cellulolytic enzymes has been used industrially for biomass hydrolysis. Transcription levels of 6 important lignocellulolytic enzymes genes (cel5A, cel6A, cel7A, cel7B, xyn10A, and xyn11A) from both strains were determined on different carbon sources (glucose, sorbose, lactose, cellobiose, cellulose, and cellulose-wheat bran), by means of a real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction. For both strains, the 6 genes are coordinately regulated at transcriptional level. Glucose and cellobiose repressed whereas cellulose and cellulose-wheat bran induced expression of 6 genes in both strains. Expression levels of all genes tested in the mutant strain JU-A10 were substantially higher than those in wild-type strain 114-2 on all carbon sources. On glucose repression condition, the mutant JU-A10 appeared obviously derepressed. Lactose was first proved to have an inductive effect on lignocellulolytic enzyme genes expression at lower concentration in Penicillium spp.

The growing demand for novel enzyme producers to meet industrial and environmental needs has driven interest in lignocellulose-degrading fungi. In this study, lignocellulolytic enzyme production capabilities of environmental fungal isolates collected from boreal coniferous and nemoral summer green deciduous forests were investigated, using Congo Red, ABTS, and Azure B as indicators of cellulolytic and ligninolytic enzyme productions. Through qualitative and quantitative assays, the study aimed to identify promising species for lignocellulose-degrading enzyme secretion and assess their potential for biotechnological applications.

Lignocellulolytic enzymes isolation from mangrove-derived organisms has many industrial advantages due to their efficiency in dealing with extreme and challenging conditions, such as high temperatures and salt concentrations. This study aimed to isolate fungal enzyme producers from mangrove soil in Thailand to produce lignocellulolytic enzymes (carboxymethyl cellulase: CMCase, xylanase, and laccase) and to characterize these enzymes to support industrial applications. Forty-eight fungi were isolated from the mangrove samples, and their enzyme-producing capabilities were assessed using primary and secondary screening methods.

Teredinibacter turnerae is a cultivable cellulolytic Gammaproteobacterium (Cellvibrionaceae) that commonly occurs as an intracellular endosymbiont in the gills of wood-eating bivalves of the family Teredinidae (shipworms). The genome of T. turnerae encodes a broad range of enzymes that deconstruct cellulose, hemicellulose and pectin and contribute to wood (lignocellulose) digestion in the shipworm gut.

The depletion of fossil fuels and their impact on the environment have led to efforts to develop alternative sustainable fuels. While biofuel derived from lignocellulose is considered a sustainable, renewable, and green energy source, enhancing biofuel production and achieving a cost-effective bioconversion of lignocellulose at existing bio-refineries remains a challenge. Consolidated bioprocessing (CBP) using thermophiles can simplify this operation by integrating multiple processes, such as hydrolytic enzyme production, lignocellulose degradation, biofuel fermentation, and product distillation.
