Response-Surface Statistical Optimization of Submerged Fermentation for Pectinase and Cellulase Production by Mucor circinelloides and M. hiemalis

Fermentation, 2022
Cellulase and pectinase are degrading cellulosic and pectic substances that form plant cell walls and, thereby, they have a wide range of applications in the agro-industrial by-products recycling and food industries.

Transcriptomic Analysis Revealed the Differences in Lipid Accumulation between Spores and Mycelia of Mucor circinelloides WJ11 under Solid–State Fermentation

Fermentation, 2022
The oleaginous fungus Mucor circinelloides has been studied for microbial oil production. Solid–state fermentation may be more suitable for lipid production than submerged fermentation due to its special filamentous structure and lower fermentation costs.

Molecular Tools for Carotenogenesis Analysis in the Mucoral Mucor circinelloides

, 2018
The carotene producer Mucor circinelloides is the fungus within the Mucoromycota phylum with the widest repertoire of molecular tools to manipulate its genome. The initial development of an effective procedure for genetic transformation and later improvements have resulted in an expansion of available tools, which include gene replacement, inactivation

Effect of Zinc-Calcium on Xylose Consumption by Mucor circinelloides (MN128960): Xylitol and Ethanol Yield Optimization

Energies, 2022
Xylose is the second most abundant monomeric sugar on earth. Nevertheless, metabolizing xylose into ethanol is a complex process due to several biochemical reactions. Some microorganisms of the genus Mucor are suitable for this bioprocess.
