  • Patent number: 11872253
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for producing marine algae-derived agarotriose, and a use thereof as a prebiotic. More specifically, the present invention investigates the characteristics of agarotriose as a prebiotic which is selectively metabolized by probiotic microorganisms, thereby enabling agarotriose to be used as an anti-cancer or anti-inflammatory agent in the fields of food and pharmaceuticals, and enabling agarotriose to be obtained at high yield through efficient purification with minimal loss after enzymatic hydrolysis of a red algae-derived polysaccharide without pre-treatment.

  • Patent number: 11597938
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are genetically modified microorganisms and related methods for enhanced utilization of oligosaccharides and improved productivity of compounds derived from the metabolism of the oligosaccharides. The microorganisms described herein have altered activities of plasma membrane ATPase protein (PMA1) and/or one or more extracellular glucose sensors, namely, sucrose non-fermenting protein (SNF3), restores glucose transport protein (RGT2), and G protein-coupled receptor 1 protein (GPR1). These genetic modifications provide the microorganisms an increased ability to utilize an oligosaccharide to produce a compound of interest, particularly, tagatose, 2?-fucosyllactose, and psicose. Methods of culturing the microorganisms in the presence of such oligosaccharides to produce the products of interest are also provided.

  • Patent number: 10837022
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides recombinant microorganisms capable of sugar co-utilization, the recombinant microorganism comprising a genetically altered microorganism (e.g. S. cerevisiae) having a lack of, or reduced expression of, or expression of truncated or mutated forms of at least one polypeptide selected from Hxk1, Hxk2, and Glk1. Reduction of the expression or biological activity of Hxk1, Hxk2 and Glk1 leads to reduction in the glucose consumption pathway, allowing the microorganism to co-utilize multiple sugars (e.g. glucose, xylose, galactose) at an improved rate.
