Abstract: The invention relates to a method for carrying out recombination at a target locus in a Rasamsonia cell. The invention also relates to Rasamsonia cells, for example Rasamsonia cells produced by such a process. The invention further relates to processes in which such Rasamsonia cells are used and to the resulting enzyme compositions. The invention further relates to nucleic acid and amino acid sequences.

Abstract: A method for carrying out recombination at a target locus in a Rasamsonia cell, which method comprises: providing two or more nucleic acids which, when taken together, comprise: (a) sequences capable of homologous recombination with sequences flanking the target locus; (b) two or more site-specific recombination sites; (c) a sequence encoding a recombinase which recognizes the site-specific recombination sites; and (d) a sequence encoding a marker, wherein the two or more nucleic acids are capable of homologous recombination with each other so as to give rise to a single nucleic acid, and wherein at least two of the two or more nucleic acids each comprise a sequence encoding a non-functional portion of the marker; and recombining in a Rasamsonia cell the said two or more nucleic acids with each other and with the sequences flanking the target locus so that a contiguous nucleic acid sequence encoding a functional marker and the sequence encoding the recombinase are inserted at the target locus, said marker-enc

Abstract: The invention relates to a Talaromyces transformant comprising one or more recombinant gene, capable of producing cellulase in the absence of cellulase inducer in a glucose medium, having a cellulase activity of 2 WSU/ml or more, in 16 times or more diluted supernatant or broth.
