Product inhibition of cellulase is a challenging issue in industrial processes. Here, we introduced a product-activated mushroom cellulase, PaCel3A from Polyporus arcularius, into Trichoderma reesei. The filter paper activity, carboxymethyl cellulase activity, and saccharification efficiency (substrate: pretreated rice straw, PRS) of transformants increased significantly with this enzyme (by 18.4-26.8%, 13.8-22.8%, and 17.0%, respectively). A mutant of PaCel3A, PaCel3AM, obtained based on B-factor analysis, saturated mutagenesis, and residual activity assay, showed improved thermostability. The PRS saccharification efficiency using the cellulase complex from T. reesei transformants overexpressing pacel3am increased by 56.4%-63.0%. In addition, the T. reesei cellulase complex obtained by adding the purified recombinant PaCel3AM from T. reesei (rCel3aM-tr) to hydrolyze PRS resulted in increased reducing sugar yields at all sampling points, outperforming the cellulase complexes without rCel3aM-tr. These results suggest that introducing product-activated cellulase genes is a simple and feasible method to alleviate the product inhibition of cellulase.

Deer antler-derived reserve mesenchyme cells (RMCs) are a promising source of cells for cartilage regeneration therapy due to their chondrogenic differentiation potential. However, the regulatory mechanism has not yet been elucidated. In this study, we analyzed the role of microRNAs (miRNAs) in regulating the differentiation of RMCs and in the post-transcriptional regulation of chondrogenesis and hypertrophic differentiation at the molecular and histological levels.
