This experiment was carried out to evaluate the effects of adding encapsulated-glucose, glucose, sorbic acid or prefermented juice of epiphytic lactic acid bacteria (FJLB) on the fermentation quality and residual mono- and disaccharide composition of Italian ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum Lam) silages. The additive treatments were as follows: (1) control (no addition), (2) encapsulated-glucose addition at 0.5% for glucose, (3) glucose addition at 1%, (4) sorbic acid addition at 0.1%, (5) FJLB addition at a theoretical application rate of $2.67{\times}10^5$ CFU (colony forming unit) $g^{-1}$, on a fresh weight basis of Italian ryegrass. Although control and encapsulated-glucose treatments had higher contents of butyric acid (33.45, 21.50 g $kg^{-1}$ DM) and ammonia-N/Total nitrogen (114.91, 87.01 g $kg^{-1}$) as compared with the other treated silages, the fermentation in all silages was clearly dominated by lactic acid. This was well indicated by the low pH (4.38-3.59), and high lactic acid/acetic acid (4.39-22.97) and lactic acid content (46.85-121.76 g $kg^{-1}$ DM). Encapsulated-0.5% glucose and glucose addition increased lactic acid/acetic acid, and significantly (p<0.05) decreased ammonia-N/total nitrogen, and the contents of butyric acid and total volatile fatty acids (VFAs) as compared with the control. However, there were higher butyric acid and lower residual mono-and di-saccharides on the two treatments as compared with sorbic acid and FJLB addition, and their utilization efficiency of water soluble carbohydrates (WSC) was lower than that of both sorbic acid and FJLB additions. Sorbic acid addition showed the lowest content of ethanol and ammonia-N/total nitrogen, and the highest content of residual fructose and total mono-and disaccharides as well as the higher lactic acid/acetic acid value. Sorbic acid addition decreased the loss of mono-and disaccharides, and inhibited the activity of clostridial and other undesirable bacteria, and greatly increased the utilization efficiency of fermentable substrates by epiphytic LAB. FJLB addition had the lowest pH value and the highest lactic acid content among all additive treatments, with the most intensive lactic acid fermentation occurring in FJLB treated silage. This resulted in the faster accumulation of lactic acid and faster pH reduction. Sorbic acid and FJLB addition depressed clostridia or other undesirable bacterial fermentation which decreased the WSC loss and saved the fermentable substrate for lactic acid fermentation.

본 총설에서는 아미노산의 공업적 생산균인 Corynebacterium glutamicum의 탄소 대사 및 이와 관련된 총체적 조절 메커니즘에 대한 최근의 연구를 정리하였다. C. glutamicum의 산업적 발효을 위한 기질로서 사용되는 당밀은 주로 sucrose, glucose, fructose로 이루어져 있으며, 이들 당은 phosphotransferase system을 통해서 수송된다. C. glutamicum의 탄소 대사 특징은 glucose가 다른 당이나 유기산 등과 함께 존재할 때, glucose와 이러한 탄소원 들을 동시에 대사한다. 그러나 glucose/glutamate 혹은 glucose/ethanol 등의 혼합물에서 는 탄소원의 순차적 이용으로 인해 나타나는 diauxic growth 현상을 나타내며, 이러한 carbon catabolite repression(CCR) 현상은 E. coli나 B. subtilis 등에서 알려진 것과는 다른 독특한 분자적 메커니즘과 조절 circuits을 가지고 있음이 밝혀지고 있다. C. glutamicum의 CRP homologue인 GlxR은 acetate 대사를 포함하여 glycolysis, gluconeogenesis 및 TCA cycle 등을 포함하는 중심탄소대사 조절 뿐만 아니라, 다양한 세포 기능의 조절에 관여하는 총체적 조절 단백질로서의 역할이 제시되고 있다. C. glutamicum의 adenylate cyclase(AC)는 막과 결합된 class IIIAC 로서, 막 단백질의 특성상 아직 규명되어 있지 않은 세포 외부의 환경 변화에 대응하여 세포 내의 cAMP합성 수준을 조절할 수 있는 sensor로 추정할 수 있다. 특히 C. glutamicum의 경우 배지내 glucose 를 비롯한 탄소원과 cAMP 농도와의 관련성이 E. coli에서 알려진 교과서적 지식과는 상반되게 변화하는 경향을 보이고 있어, cAMP signaling에 의한 세포 내 regulatory network 등은 향후 풀어야 할 의문으로 남아있다. 탄소대사 조절의 최상위에 존재하며 global 조절자인 GlxRcAMP 복합체 이외에도 차상위 전사조절 단백질로서 RamB, RamA, SugR 등이 존재하여 다양한 탄소대사를 조절한다. 최근 들어서는 새로운 탄소원으로서 대두되고 있는 biomass 관련 기질들을 이용할 수 있는 C. glutamucum 균주 구축을 통하여 이용 기질의 범위를 확대시키고자 하는 연구 및 탄소 대사와 관련하여 L-lysine의 발효 수율 혹은 생산성을 향상시키고자 하는 다양한 분자적 균주 육종 연구 등이 수행되고 있다.

Using a flocculating Saccharomyes cerevisiae CA-1, an air-lift reactor equipped with a modified settler was used for ethanol fermentation. The effects of conditions such as aeration rate, initial glucose concentration, and dilution rate were studied using the air-lift reactor. In batch fermentation, optimum aeration rate was 0.5 vvm. In continuous fermentation, aeration rate and initial pH were fixed 0.5 vvm and 4.5, substrate concentration and dillution rate were changed 10-15% and 0.1-1.3. The maximum ethanol productivity was shown to be 20.4 g/l$\cdot $h in 10% glucose and 0.7 h$^{-1}$ dilution rate., and optimum operation condition considering the ethanol productivity and glucose utilization ratio was 0.5 h$^{-1}$ dilution rate in 10% glucose concentration.

Since cellulose is the only organic material that is annually replenishable in very large quantities, we must explore ways to utilize it as a source of energy, food and chemicals. For the utilization of this resource, it is first enzymatic hydrolyzed to glucose, then the glucose can be used as a food, converted single cell protein by microorganism, fermented to clean burning fuel and other chemicals. Cellulolytic enzyme, cellulase, consists of two or three major components, $C_1-cellulase$, $C_x-cellulase$ and ${\beta}-glucosidase$. $C_x-cellulase$ are fairly common but $C_1-cellulase$ are quite rare. Trichoderma viride is the best source of active cellulose, especially $C_1-enzyme$. Saccharification rate of cellulose in greatly influenced by the degree of crystallinity and extent of lignification. But by the pretreatment the substrate with cellulose swelling agent, delignifying reagent and physical treatment, the degree of saccharification is enhanced. Thus, glucose syrups of 2 to 10% concentration are realized from milled newspaper. The enzymatic hydrolysis of such energy rich material, such as cellulose, to glucose is technically feasible and practically achievable on a very large scale.

Using the synchronous culture method and the manometric technique, changes in respiratory activities, utilization of some organic acids (succinate, malate, lactate and acetate etc.) and its effect on glucose metabolism in Chlorella cells at different growing stages were measured. 1) Endogenous respiration of the cells was not active at growing stage and was almost constant throughout the early ripening, maturing and division stages. 2) Lactate was utilized as respiratory substrate better than other organic acids tested. Exogenous respiration of glucose was most active at growing and maturing stages and was decreased strikingly at division stage. 3) Succinate and citrate inhibited endogenous and glucose respiration of the cells throughout the all life cycle. 4) Malate and acetate were utilized in the cells at early growing and division stages better, and malate enhanced the glucose respiration while in case of acetate it was depressed. 5) Calcium ion inhibited not only permeability of respiratory substrate but endogenous respiration itself.

Succinic acid-producing Anaerobinspirillum succiniciproducens was anaerobically grown on galactose, galactose/glucose, or galactose/lactose in order to study its galactose fermentation. Unlike a previous report, A. succiniciproducens was found to efficiently metabolize galactose as the sole carbon source at a rate of 2.4 g/g-DCW/h and produced succinic acid with as high a yield of 87% as with using glucose. When glucose and galactose were present, A. succiniciproducens metabolized both sugars simultaneously. Furthermore, when lactose and galactose coexisted, lactose did not inhibit the galactose fermentation of A. succiniciproducens. Therefore, co-utilization of galactose and other sugars can improve the productivity and economy of bio-based succinic acid processes.

Identification of novel, electricity-producing bacteria has garnered remarkable interest because of the various applications of electricigens in microbial fuel cell and bioelectrochemical systems. Shewanella marisflavi BBL25, an electricity-generating microorganism, uses various carbon sources and shows broader sugar utilization than the better-known S. oneidensis MR-1. To determine the sugar-utilizing genes and electricity production and transfer system in S. marisflavi BBL25, we performed an in-depth analysis using whole-genome sequencing. We identified various genes associated with carbon source utilization and the electron transfer system, similar to those of S. oneidensis MR-1. In addition, we identified genes related to hydrogen production systems in S. marisflavi BBL25, which were different from those in S. oneidensis MR-1. When we cultured S. marisflavi BBL25 under anaerobic conditions, the strain produced 427.58 ± 5.85 µl of biohydrogen from pyruvate and 877.43 ± 28.53 µl from xylose. As S. oneidensis MR-1 could not utilize glucose well, we introduced the glk gene from S. marisflavi BBL25 into S. oneidensis MR-1, resulting in a 117.35% increase in growth and a 17.64% increase in glucose consumption. The results of S. marisflavi BBL25 genome sequencing aided in the understanding of sugar utilization, electron transfer systems, and hydrogen production systems in other Shewanella species.

D-Ribose is a five-carbon sugar used for the commercial synthesis of riboflavin, antiviral agents, and flavor enhancers. Batch fermentations with transketolase-deficient B. subtilis JY1 were carried out to optimize the production of D-ribose from xylose. The best results for the fermentation were obtained with a temperature of $37^{\circ}C$ and an initial pH of 7.0. Among various sugars and sugar alcohols tested, glucose and sucrose were found to be the most effective for both cell growth and D-ribose production. The addition of 15 g/l xylose and 15 g/l glucose improved the fermentation performance, presumably due to the adequate supply of ATP in the xylose metabolism from D-xylulose to D-xylulose-5-phosphate. A batch culture in a 3.7-1 jar fermentor with 14.9 g/l xylose and 13.1 g/l glucose resulted in 10.1 g/l D-ribose concentration with a yield of 0.62 g D-ribose/g sugar consumed, and 0.25 g/l-h of productivity. Furthermore, the sugar utilization profile, indicating the simultaneous consumption of xylose and glucose, and respiratory parameters for the glucose and sucrose media suggested that the transketolase-deficient B. subtilis JY1 lost the glucose-specific enzyme II of the phosphoenolpyruvate transferase system.
