Lack of cellobiose utilization capability for many microorganisms results in carbon source waste in lignocellulosic biorefinery. In this study, genes for cellobiose transport and hydrolysis were introduced to Saccharomyces cerevisiae synV, a semi-synthetic yeast with an inducible SCRaMbLE (Synthetic Chromosome Rearrangement and Modification by LoxPsym-mediated Evolution) system incorporated into its chromosome V, endowing cellobiose utilization capability to this strain. Thereafter, two evolved strains with 98.1% and 79.2% improvement, respectively, in cellobiose utilization rate were obtained through induced SCRaMbLE. Further studies suggested that the enhanced cellobiose utilization capability directly correlated with copy number increases of introduced genes and some chromosome structural variations. In particular, it was experimentally demonstrated for the first time that deletion of redox stress related gene MXR1 and ATP conversion related gene ADK2 contributed to enhanced cellobiose conversion. Thereafter, the effectiveness of MXR1 and ADK2 deletions was demonstrated in artificial hydrolysate and rice straw hydrolysate, respectively.

Lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) are a unique group of monocopper enzymes that exhibit remarkable ability to catalyze the oxidative cleavage of recalcitrant carbohydrate substrates, such as cellulose and chitin, by utilizing O or HO as the oxygen source. One of the key challenges in understanding the catalytic mechanism of LPMOs lies in deciphering how they activate dioxygen using diverse reductants. To shed light on this intricate process, we conducted in-depth investigations using quantum mechanical/molecular mechanical (QM/MM) metadynamics simulations, molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, and density functional theory (DFT) calculations.

Cellobiose lipids (CBLs) are a class of glycolipid biosurfactants produced by various fungal strains. These compounds have gained significant interest due to their surface-active and antifungal properties, which are comparable to traditional synthetic surfactants and antimicrobials. Despite their potential applicability in various cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and agricultural formulations, significantly less research has been focused on their production and purification in comparison to other glycolipid biosurfactants, such as mannosylerythritol lipids (MELs) and sophorolipids.

Cellulases are an ensemble of enzymes that hydrolyze cellulose chains into fermentable glucose and hence are widely used in bioethanol production. The last enzyme of the cellulose degradation pathway, β-glucosidase, is inhibited by its product, glucose. The product inhibition by glucose hinders cellulose hydrolysis limiting the saccharification during bioethanol production.

Soda lakes are unique double-extreme habitats characterized by high salinity and soluble carbonate alkalinity, yet harboring rich prokaryotic life. Despite intensive microbiology studies, little is known about the identity of the soda lake hydrolytic bacteria responsible for the primary degradation of the biomass organic matter, in particular cellulose. In this study, aerobic and anaerobic enrichment cultures with three forms of native insoluble cellulose inoculated with sediments from five soda lakes in south-western Siberia resulted in the isolation of four cellulotrophic haloalkaliphilic bacteria and their four saccharolytic satellites.
