A novel method of growing fungi is disclosed which uses an engineered artificial media and produces high density filamentous fungi biomats that can be harvested with a minimum of processing and from which fungal products such as antibiotics, proteins, and lipids can be isolated, the method resulting in lowered fungus cultivation costs for energy usage, oxygenation, water usage and waste stream production.

A highly efficient ethanol-fermentative yeast having high efficiency in ethanol production is provided without introducing a foreign gene. The highly efficient ethanol-fermentative yeast features a fermentative yeast effectively producing ethanol from pentose and hexose and being deposited to NITE Patent Microorganisms Depositary under the accession number NITE BP-01963.

The present disclosure provides an engineered microorganism capable of producing malonic acid, malonate, esters of malonic acid, or mixtures thereof. The engineered microorganism includes a malonate-semialdehyde dehydrogenase that is heterologous to a native form of the engineered microorganism and comprises at least 90% sequence identity to any one of SEQ ID Nos: 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19, 21, 23, 27, 29, and 31, wherein the engineered microorganism is capable of producing about 9 g/L to about 250 g/L of malonic acid, malonate, esters of malonic acid, or mixtures thereof.

The present invention relates to the field of genetic engineering, particularly to a glucose oxidase mutant having improved thermal stability, gene and application thereof. The present invention provides several glucose oxidase GOD mutants with high catalytic efficiency and improved thermal stability, which breaks the barrier of low enzyme activity and poor stability and is suited well to meet the requirements of application to the fields of food, medicine, feed and textile industry, and has a very broad application prospect.

Provided herein are compositions with enhanced protein content, compositions with functional proteins, protein combinations and methods for the preparation thereof.

The present invention relates to: a novel Pichia kudriavzevii microorganism NG7 showing heat resistance and acid resistance; a composition, for producing organic acid or alcohol, which comprises the microorganism and a culture of the same; and a method, for producing an organic acid or alcohol, which comprises culturing the microorganism.

Provided is a highly efficient ethanol-fermentative yeast having high efficiency in ethanol production without introducing a foreign gene. The highly efficient ethanol-fermentative yeast is a fermentative yeast that effectively produces ethanol from pentose and hexose and is deposited to NITE Patent Microorganisms Depositary under the accession number NITE BP-01962.
