Fungal-mediated consolidated bioprocessing: the potential of Fusarium oxysporum for the lignocellulosic ethanol industry [PDF]
AMB Express, 2016 Microbial bioprocessing of lignocellulose to bioethanol still poses challenges in terms of substrate catabolism. The most important challenge is to overcome substrate recalcitrance and to thus reduce the number of steps needed to biorefine lignocellulose.

Consolidated bioprocessing for butyric acid production from rice straw with undefined mixed culture [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016 Lignocellulosic biomass is a renewable source with great potential for biofuels and bioproducts. However, the cost of cellulolytic enzymes limits the utilization of the low-cost bioresource.

Improved consolidated bioprocessing for itaconic acid production by simultaneous optimization of cellulase and metabolic pathway of Neurospora crassa [PDF]
Biotechnology for Biofuels and BioproductsLignocellulose was directly used in itaconic acid production by a model filamentous fungus Neurospora crassa. The promoters of two clock control genes and cellobiohydrolase 1 gene were selected for heterologous genes expression by evaluating different ...

Redox engineering of thermophilic fungus Myceliophthora thermophila enhances production of L‑malic acid by consolidated bioprocessing [PDF]
MycologyConsolidated bioprocessing (CBP) is a promising strategy for low-cost malic acid production from plant biomass. In this study, we report a comprehensive redox engineering strategy to redirect reducing equivalents towards the reductive tricarboxylic acid (

Conferring cellulose-degrading ability to Yarrowia lipolytica to facilitate a consolidated bioprocessing approach [PDF]
Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2017 Background Yarrowia lipolytica, one of the most widely studied “nonconventional” oleaginous yeast species, is unable to grow on cellulose. Recently, we identified and overexpressed two endogenous β-glucosidases in Y.
