The present invention provides nucleotide sequences of Macrophomina phaseolina (“M. phaseolina”) that encodes proteins/enzymes with cellulolytic activity, including a cellulase activity, a endoglucanase, a cellobiohydrolase, a β-glucosidase, a a-glucosidase, a xylanase, a mannanse, a β-xylosidase, a a-xylosidase, a galactosidase, an arabinofuranosidase, a a-fucosidases, a β-galactanase, an unsaturated β-glucuronyl hydrolase and/or oligomerase activity. Vectors, expression constructs and host cells comprising and/or consisting of the nucleotide sequences of the enzyme genes are also provided. The invention further provides methods for producing the enzymes and methods for modifying the enzymes in order to improve their desirable characteristics. The enzymes of the invention can be used in a variety of, but not limited to, pharmaceutical, agricultural, food and feed processing, biofuel, energy efficiency and industrial contexts. These enzymes are also useful for complete hydrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass into simple sugar that can then be fermented to liquid fuels and chemical feedstocks.

The present invention relates to processes of producing a fermentation product from starch containing material comprising (a) forming a slurry comprising the starch-containing material and water; (b) converting the starch-containing material into dextrins with an alpha-amylase; (c) saccharifying the dextrins using a carbohydrate source generating enzyme to form sugars; (d) fermenting sugars using a fermenting organism; (e) recovering the fermentation product to form whole stillage; (f) separating the whole stillage into a liquid fraction thin stillage and solid fraction wet cake; (g) hydrolyzing the thin stillage; (h) recycle a portion of the hydrolyzed thin stillage to steps (a); wherein the thin stillage in step (g) is hydrolyzed using a glucoamylase and/or polygalacturonase.

The present invention relates to a method for solubilisation or hydrolysis of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) with an enzyme blend and an enzyme composition for solubilization of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW), the enzyme composition comprising a cellulolytic background composition and a protease, lipase and/or beta-glucanase.

The invention relates to a host cell comprising at least four different heterologous polynucleotides chose from the group of polynucleotides encoding cellulases, hemicellulases and pectinases, wherein the host cell is capable of producing the at least four different enzymes chosen from the group of cellulases, hemicellulases and pectinases, wherein the host cell is a filam-tous fungus and is capable of secretion of the at least four different enzymes. This host cell can suitably be used for the production of an enzyme composition that can be use in a process for the saccharification of cellulosic material.
