Improvement of ethanol production by ethanol-tolerant Saccharomyces cerevisiae UVNR56
نویسندگان
چکیده
Ethanol tolerance is one of the important characteristics of ethanol-producing yeast. This study focused on the improvement of ethanol tolerance of Saccharomyces cerevisiae NR1 for enhancing ethanol production by random UV-C mutagenesis. One ethanol-tolerant mutant, UVNR56, displayed a significantly improved ethanol tolerance in the presence of 15% (v/v) ethanol and showed a considerably higher viability during ethanol fermentation from sugarcane molasses and sugarcane molasses with initial ethanol supplementation. A maximum ethanol concentration produced from molasses medium at 37°C by UVNR56 was 10.3% (v/v), productivity of 1.7 g/l/h and a theoretical yield of 98.7%, while the corresponding values for the wild-type were 8.6% (v/v), 1.4 g/l/h and 83.3%, respectively. In addition, during molasses fermentation under initial supplementation of 5% (v/v) ethanol, the maximum ethanol concentration and productivity of UVNR56 was 25.7% and 42.9% higher than the wild-type, respectively.

Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains having a broad range of substrate utilization, rapid substrate consumption, and conversion to ethanol, as well as good tolerance to inhibitory conditions are ideal for cost-competitive ethanol production from lignocellulose. A major drawback to directly design S. cerevisiae tolerance to inhibitory conditions of lignocellulosic ethanol production processes is the...
