There is described a continuous process for producing and isolating mycoprotein. The process may comprise the steps of: providing a fermentation media suitable for producing mycoprotein; introducing the fermentation media to a first fermentation vessel; fermenting the fermentation media to obtain a mixture comprising mycoprotein and partially spent fermentation media; isolating at least part of the partially spent fermentation media from the mixture comprising mycoprotein and partially spent fermentation media; and reintroducing at least a portion of the isolated partially spent fermentation media into the first fermentation vessel. Also described is mycoprotein obtained from the process.

The invention relates to a strain of fungus having a reduced viscosity, wherein the ID 78713 (GEL3) gene has been invalidated. The invention also relates to the different uses of this strain, as well as to the method of genetic modification.

A process for producing cellulolytic and/or hemicellulolytic enzymes with a strain of microorganism belonging to the family of filamentous fungi. The process includes growing the fungi in an aqueous culture medium, in the presence of at least one carbon-based growth substrate, in a stirred and aerated bioreactor. It also includes the production of enzymes, starting with the aqueous culture medium in the presence of at least one inductive carbon-based substrate and also inducing the production of hydrophobins. Further, at least a portion of the hydrophobins produced in step (b) are reintroduced into the growth step (a).

Provided is a yeast strain capable of excessively synthesizing cAMP and its construction method and fermentation technique thereof, and application in the field of medicine, animal husbandry, food or chemical industry. The yeast strain includes first and second gene modifications, wherein the first gene includes protein kinase A (PKA) catalytic subunit encoding genes TPK1, TPK2 and TPK3, by modifying the first gene, the activity or expression of PKA is completely inhibited, so that feedback inhibition to cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) is eliminated, but at the same time, the growth of the yeast is inhibited; and the second gene modification eliminates growth inhibition caused by the first gene modification, so that the yeast grows normally, and the cAMP yield by the yeast is increased, wherein the increase of the cAMP yield is relative to the cAMP yield by an unmodified yeast. The yeast strain further includes third and/or fourth gene modifications. The recombinant yeast strain of the present invention can stably, continuously and efficiently produce extracellular cAMP by up to 9721.6 μmol/L.

The present invention relates to strains of Penicillium camemberti and to the use thereof for the preparation of food products, for example of dairy and/or vegetable origin, such as the ripening of soft cheeses having a moldy and/or mixed crust, in particular camembert.

The present invention provides nucleic acids, vectors, host cells and methods for production of fructosyltransferase from Aspergillus japonicus. The invention represents an advancement in the field of genetic engineering and provides methods for obtaining high yield of a novel recombinant fructosyltransferase encoded by ft gene of Aspergillus japonicus as a secreted protein.

A method for producing a protein is provided. An objective protein is produced by culturing in a culture medium Talaromyces cellulolyticus having an objective protein-producing ability, which has been modified so that the activity of a Pep4 protein is reduced.

A method for preparing a fermented food by using a Rhizopus microsporus strain is provided. The method includes the following steps: providing an isolated and purified Rhizopus microsporus strain, and its deposit number is DSM 34400; and inoculating the isolated and purified Rhizopus microsporus strain to a substrate for fermentation to form a fermented food. The substrate includes a legume, a processing residue of a legume, or a combination thereof.

The present disclosure belongs to the technical field of plant pest control, and particularly relates to a Camellia sinensis endophyte Penicillium ehrlichii and an application thereof. The present disclosure relates to a novel endophyte separated from a Camellia sinensis body and identified as Penicillium ehrlichii by means of morphology and molecular biology. Biological activity evaluation indicates that Penicillium ehrlichii shows good antagonistic antifungal activity to common pathogenic fungi on several plants. It means that the strain used as a biocontrol fungus for phytopathogens can be applied to environmental-friendly and safe prevention and control of plant diseases.

A long-chain composition has at least one long-chain alkane selected from the group consisting of C9-18 linear or branched alkanes and at least one long-chain carboxylic acid selected from the group consisting of C9-18 linear or branched, saturated or unsaturated aliphatic monocarboxylic acids. The mass ratio of the long-chain alkane to the long-chain carboxylic acid ranges from 1:1 to 40:1. The long-chain composition has a higher fermentation degree or higher substrate utilization rate and the like, when used as a starting material in the production of long-chain dibasic acids via fermentation.
