  • Variants of cellobiohydrolase 1
    Patent number: 10385324
    Abstract: The present invention relates to variants of cellobiohydrolase, preferably Cbh1, which have greater cellobiohydrolase activity. The invention also relates to a genetic construct, a host cell and to an enzyme composition comprising said variants. The invention further relates to a procedure for producing fermentable sugar and a procedure for producing a bioproduct, such as bioethanol, from cellulose material with the cellobiohydrolase variants, the host cell or the enzyme composition comprising said variants.

  • EXPRESSION OF RECOMBINANT BETA-XYLOSIDASE ENZYMES
    Publication number: 20180230446
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a Myceliophthora thermophila cell, which expresses a nucleotide sequence that codifies a recombinant beta-xylosidase enzyme comprising an amino-acid sequence having at least 70% identity with SEQ ID NO: 1, an enzymatic composition comprising said cell and/or the recombinant enzyme with beta-xylosidase activity expressed by said cell, the use of this host cell, the recombinant enzyme with beta-xylosidase activity expressed by said cell or the composition for the degradation of biomass, and a method of producing biological products, preferably bioethanol, comprising the use of said host cell, the recombinant enzyme with the beta-xylosidase activity expressed by said cell or said composition.
