${\small{D}}$-Ribose is a value-added five-carbon sugar used for riboflavin production. To investigate the effects of oxygen supply and mixed sugar concentration on microbial production of ${\small{D}}$-ribose, a transketolase-deficient Bacillus subtilis SPK1 was cultured batch-wise using xylose and glucose. A change of agitation speed from 300 rpm to 600 rpm at 1 vvm of air supply increased both the xylose consumption rate and ${\small{D}}$-ribose production rate. Because the sum of the specific consumption rates for xylose and glucose was similar at all agitation speeds, metabolic preferences between xylose and glucose might depend on oxygen supply. Although B. subtilis SPK1 can take up xylose and glucose by the active transport mechanism, a high initial concentration of xylose and glucose was not beneficial for high ${\small{D}}$-ribose production.

Profiling the transcriptome changes involved in xylose metabolism by the fungus Trichoderma reesei allows for the identification of potential targets for ethanol production processing. In the present study, the transcriptome of T. reesei HJ-48 grown on xylose versus glucose was analyzed using next-generation sequencing technology. During xylose fermentation, numerous genes related to central metabolic pathways, including xylose reductase (XR) and xylitol dehydrogenase (XDH), were expressed at higher levels in T. reesei HJ-48. Notably, growth on xylose did not fully repress the genes encoding enzymes of the tricarboxylic acid and respiratory pathways. In addition, increased expression of several sugar transporters was observed during xylose fermentation. This study provides a valuable dataset for further investigation of xylose fermentation and provides a deeper insight into the various genes involved in this process.

Candida parapsilosis KFCC 10875를 사용하여 acetic acid가 xylitol 생산에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 초기 acetic acid농도가 1.0 g/l까지는 acetic acid가 발효과정 중에 모두 소모되나, 3.0 g/l 이상의 농도에서는 일부만 소모되고 배지중의 존재하여 xylitol 발효에 영향을 주었다. 균체의 성장, xylose소비와 xylitol 생산은 acetic acid농도가 증가함에 따라서 감소하였다. 비 균체 증식속도와 비 기질 소비속도도 acetic acid가 증가할수록 감소하였다. 그러나, xylose에서 xylitol로의 전환수율과 비 생산속도는 acetic acid 농도가 1.0 g/l일 때까지는 최대값을 보여주었다. 그 이상의 acetic acid 농도에서는 xylitol의 전환수율과 비 생산속도가 감소하였다. Xylose로부터 xylitol 발효시 acetic acid의 저해정도는 pH에 영향을 받아 낮은 pH에서 균체의 증식, xylose의 소비 및 xylitol의 생성이 더 저해되었다.

A study was conducted to investigate the characteristics of segregation and alcohol fermentation of intergeneric fusants. The protoplast fusion of both Pichia stipitis CBS 5776 and Saccharomycess cerevisiae STV 89 was carried out. The fusion frequency was $5\times10^{-8}$ and among fusants selected, a fusant F5 showed the best results in ethanol production by sucrose and xylose fermentations. The performance of xylose fermentation by this fusant was better than that of P. stipitis CBS 5776 and fusant F5 exhibited sucrose fermentation patterns intermediate to the two parent strains. The fusant F5 was segregated into a pair of parental strains during the several culture passages. In the average, 91$%$ of colonies had a similar characteristics of P. stipitis while 7$%$ of colonies resembled S. cerevisiae. Only 2$%$ of colonies had the characteristics of the original fusants. At the sixth passage, all segregants resembled P. stipitis. From these results it is suggested that intergeneric protoplast fusion led to an integration of S. cerevisiae genes, rather than whole chromosomes, within the entire genome of P. stipitis.

This study was carried out in order to investigate the characteristics of xylitol fermentation by a xylitol dehydrogenase defective mutant PXM-4 of P stipitis CBS 5776 and to determime optimum conditions for the high yield ofxylitol production from xylose. Gluconic acid was selected as a co substrate for the xylitol fermentation, since gluconic acid neither blocked xylose transport nor repressed xylose reductase expression. An increase of gluconic acid concentration reduced the rates of xylitol production and cell growth by decreasing medium pH, and the optimal concentration of gluconic acid was determined to be 20 gll with approximately 100% xylitol conversion yield. A fed-batch cell culture resulted in a 44.8 g/l xylitol concentration with 100% yield, based on the amount of xylose consumed.

A recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae, transformed with the genes encoding xylose reductase (XYL1) and xylitol dehydrogenase (XYL2) orginated from Pichia stipitis CBS 5776, was developed to directly convert xylose to ethanol. A fed-batch fermentation with the recombinant yeast produced 8.7 g ethanol/l with a yield of 0.13 g ethanol/g xylose consumed.

D-xylose 는 임산 바이오마스의 화학석 조성분 증 셀룰로오스와 리그닌 다음으로 가장 많이 존재하는 성분이다. 그럼에도 불구하고 D-glucose만큼의 연구가 진행되지 못해왔다. 단지 xylitol, furfural 및 xylonic acids탐의 몇가지 산으로 전환시켜 이용될 뿐이다. 이런 이유는 D-xylose를 공업적으로 다량 추출하는 방법과, 특히 정선 방법에 어려운 문제점이 있기 때문이다. 그러므로 본 총설에서는 D-xylose를 보다 경제적으로 분리하는 방법과 D-xylose를 에탄올로 발효시키는 과정중의 제 문제점들에 관해 기존에 발표된 논문들을 정리하고저 한다. 즉 공업적으로 D-xylose를 다량 분리시키는 방법으로서 해섬/추출 폭쇄/추출, 초산펄핑, 전기가수분해 방법들이 논의 되었으며, 분리된 D-xylose를 에탄올로 발효시킬 경우 D-xylose의 대사, 발효 조건들의 영향, 헤미셀룰로오스 가수분해물의 발효, 발효의 전망과 문제점등이 포함되었다.

백합나무를 원료로 바이오 에탄올을 생산하기 위하여 알칼리 가수분해 처리 후 잔재물을 상업용 혼합 셀룰라아제(Celluclast 1.5L과 Novozym 342)를 사용하여 효소당화 후, 발효하여 바이오 에탄올을 생산하였다. 알칼리 가수분해 후 51.1%의 목재 성분이 회수 되었으며, 이중 셀룰로오스가 82.2%, xylan이 17.6%와 리그닌 2.0%의 조성을 보였다. 백합나무의 알칼리 가수분해과정에서 셀룰로오스 96.9%, xylan 38.0%, 리그닌 5.7%가 잔류하였다. 알칼리 가수분해 잔류물을 상업용 혼합 셀룰라아제에 의한 효소 당화결과, 셀룰로오스의 glucose 전환율은 87.0%였으며 xylan의 xylose로의 전환율은 87.2%였다. 분해된 단당류를 발효효모를 사용하여 바이오 에탄올을 생산하였는데 Saccharomycess cerevisiae 균주는 대부분의 glucose를 발효에 사용하였고, 0.4-1.4%의 소량의 glucose만을 잔류 시킨데 대하여, xylose의 경우는 92.1-99.5%가 잔류하여 이 균주는 발효과정에서 xylose를 거의 사용하지 않았다. 24시간 발효에서 에탄올의 농도는 57.2 g/L수준이었지만 발효 균주에 의한 에탄올 소비로 인하여 48시간 및 72시간 발효에서 에탄올 농도가 각각 56.2 g/L와 54.3 g/L로 점차 감소하였다.

Effect of glucose addition to xylose medium on xylitol production was investigated by using Candida parapsilosis ATCC 21019 mutant. With increasing the ratio of glucose to xylose in total amount of 50 g/l as glucose and/or xylose, xylitol production was decreased but ethanol and glycerol production were increased. Ethanol and glycerol concentration were maxmum in 10 g/l of xylose and 40 g/l of glucose medium as 21.5 g/l and 3.6 g/l, respecti- vely. No xylitol was formed in glucose medium without xylose because xylitol could be not produced from glucose. With increasing the ratio of glucose to xylose, the activity of xylose reductase which converted xylose to xylitol were decreased. The activities of xylitol dehydrogeiiase which converted xylitol to xylulose and then cell materials were found to be constant regardless of the ratio of glucose to xylose. This results indicated that glucose addition to xylose medium on cell growth was not affected. In order to prevent the inhibitory effect of glucose on xylitol production, glucose in a fermentor was fed with low concentration and then ethanol and glycerol was critically decreased and the xylitol yield from xylose of the culture with glucose feeding was recovered the almost same as that with only 50 g/l of xylose. However, the xylitol yield from total sugars (xylose and glucose) was decreased and glucose was not contributed to xylitol production. Therefore, the fermentation at high concentration of xylose without glucose was carried out. A final xylitol concentration of 242 g/l which corresponding 80.7% of xylitol yield was obtained from 300 g/l of xylose for 273 hours.

섬유소계 바이오매스로부터 바이오 연료 등과 같은 유용한 물질을 생산하기 위해서는 바이오매스로부터 유래하는 혼합당을 효과적으로 대사할 수 있는 균주의 개발이 필수적이다. 본 연구에서는 xylose를 대사가 가능한 효모인 P. stipitis를 적응진화하여 cellobiose 대사효율이 향상되고 cellobiose와 xylose를 동시에 대사할 수 있는 균주를 개발하고자 하였다. 총 10회의 계대배양을 통해 얻어진 진화된 P. stipitis 돌연변이 균주는 모균주에 비해 6배 이상 증가된 cellobiose 대사속도를 나타내었으며 ethanol 생산수율을 0에서 0.4 (g ethanol/g cellobiose)로 향상시켰다. 아울러 본 실험에서 개발한 돌연변이 균주는 cellobiose와 xylose 혼합당 조건에서 모균주에 비해 2배 가까이 향상된 ethanol 생산 및 생산속도를 나타내었다.
