BATCH FEED PROCESS FOR FERMENTING SUGARS
A batch fermentation process ferments a starch hydrolysate containing 80-98 weight percent of glucose based on total carbohydrate and 0.3-5% weight percent of isomaltose based on total carbohydrate to a fermentation product. A fermentation broth is formed containing a first portion of a total amount of the starch hydrolysate so that the fermentation broth has an initial glucose concentration of at least about 50 g/L. Fermentaion is carried out until the fermentation broth contains 30 g/L or less of glucose. An effective amount of at least one active enzyme that converts isomaltose into glucose is adding to the fermentation broth. Then the remaining portion of the total amount of starch hydrolysate is fed into the fermentation broth to maintain a glucose concentration of from about 5 to about 15 g/L in the fermentation broth throughout the feeding step. The final fermentation broth containing the fermentation product is then produced.
Genetic perturbation of the RNA degradosome protein complex
The present disclosure provides novel bacterial strains with altered expression or start codon modification of one or more RNA degradation/processing genes. The RNA degradation genes of the present disclosure are controlled by heterologous promoters. The present disclosure further describes methods for generating microbial strains comprising heterologous promoter sequences operably linked to RNA degradation/processing genes.

Genomic engineering of biosynthetic pathways leading to increased NADPH
The disclosure relates to host cells having altered NADPH availability, allowing for increased production of compounds produced using NADPH, and methods of use thereof. NADPH availability is altered by one or more of: expressing an altered GAPDH, expressing a variant glutamate dehydrogenase (gdh), aspartate semialdehyde dehydrogenase (asd), dihydropicolinate reductase (dapB), and meso-diaminopimelate dehydrogenase (ddh), expressing a novel nicotinamide nucleotide transhydrogenase, expressing a novel threonine aldolase, and expressing or modulating the expression of a pyruvate carboxylase in the host cells.

Control device, control method, computer program, and method for producing organic compound
A control device performs control of a culture condition in production of an organic compound by a fermentation method. The control device executes processing a plurality of times to acquire culture data, to calculate, using the acquired culture data, a plurality of candidates for a culture condition set in advance, and a linear model set in advance that outputs a production amount of an organic compound at a future time, the production amount at the future time for each of the candidates, to determine an optimum candidate out of the candidates using the calculated production amount at the future time for each of the candidates and a target production amount of the organic compound at the future time set in advance, and to change the culture condition to the determined candidate. The linear model and the target production amount are set for each time.
