Sustainable bioproduction using carbon neutral feedstocks, especially lignocellulosic biomass, has attracted increasing attention. Consolidated bioprocessing (CBP) of lignocellulosic biomass using recombinant yeast has shown promise, but low enzyme secretion levels restrict its economic viability. In this study, overexpression of MIG1 spsc01, a glucose repression regulator derivative, was used to increase extracellular cellobiohydrolase (CBH) activity. Disruption of other genes related to MIG1 spsc01, such as CWP2, YGP1, and UTH1, also enhanced CBH secretion. By simultaneously disrupting YGP1 and overexpressing SED5, cellulase production was significantly improved.
Sustainable bioproduction using carbon neutral feedstocks, especially lignocellulosic biomass, has attracted increasing attention due to concern over climate change and carbon reduction. Consolidated bioprocessing (CBP) of lignocellulosic biomass using recombinant yeast of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a promising strategy for -lignocellulosic biorefinery. However, the economic viability is restricted by low enzyme secretion levels. For more efficient CBP, MIG1 spsc01 isolated from the industrial yeast which encodes the glucose repression regulator derivative was overexpressed. Increased extracellular cellobiohydrolase (CBH) activity was observed with un-expectedly decreased cell wall integrity. Further studies revealed that disruption of CWP2, YGP1, and UTH1, which are functionally related to MIG1 spsc01, also enhanced CBH secretion. Subsequently, improved cellulase production was achieved by simultaneous disruption of YGP1 and overexpression of SED5, which remarkably increased extracellular CBH activity of 2.2-fold over the control strain. These results provide a novel strategy to improve the CBP yeast for bioconversion of carbon neutral biomass.
