摘要:
Methods of and system for growing and maintaining an optimized/ideal active yeast solution in the yeast tank and fermenter tank during the fermentation filling cycle are provided. A new yeast stage tank is used between the yeast tank and the fermenter tank allowing yeast to rapidly produce a huge amount of active young yeast cells for a fermenter during the filling period. A measurable and useful controlling factor, % DT/% Yeast by weight ratio (or “food” to yeast ratio), is used (e.g., % DT=glucose), which offers information on the health status of the yeast. The controlling factor is used to control the status of the yeast throughout the entire process.

Methods and compositions herein provide non-naturally occurring γ-butyrolactones (GBLs) in racemic mixtures that increase efficiency and effectiveness of screening for production of antibiotics, and enhance yields and express silent pathways. Non-naturally occurring GBLs were synthesized and found to stimulate antibiotic production in several different streptomycete strains. Antibiotic production by Streptomyces coelicolor was induced by a racemic mixture of non-cognate stereoisomers of VB-D, seven of which are non-naturally occurring. Further, novel A-factor-type GBL analogs stimulated antibiotic production in S. coelicolor. Synthesis in response to the treatment with the non-cognates GBL was observed for known compounds including undecylprodigiosin, desferrioxamine and streptorubin B, as was synthesis of a compound of unknown structure. A group of 37 additional microbial strains was screened by principal component analysis to determine optimal concentrations of each of a panel of four non-cognate synthetic GBLs for addition to cultures with optimal stimulation of secondary metabolites, and large scale fermentations were analyzed and product enhancement by the GBLs was observed.

摘要:
The efficient production of ethanol from low-cost biomass (e.g., corn, sugar beets, sugar cane, switchgrass and/or paper) has become increasingly important in making ethanol competitive with gasoline and decreasing the United States' dependence on foreign oil. For example, to reduce the cost of transporting biomass to ethanol production facilities, mobile systems for producing ethanol from biomass are provided. Also provided are small-scale ethanol production facilities. For example, instead of transporting biomass to the production facility, the facility is transported to the biomass or is located nearby the source of the biomass. The ethanol production facilities or components thereof may be transported via land, water, or air. Production of other products, such as hydrocarbons, natural gas, hydrogen gas, plastics, polymers, and proteins, can also be made by the methods and facilities. Any product described herein can be made in finished form or un-finished form and moved, e.g., to a fixed facility, e.g., fixed production facility.

The present invention relates, e.g., to a minimal set of protein-coding genes which provides the information required for replication of a free-living organism in a rich bacterial culture medium, wherein (1) the gene set does not comprise the 101 genes listed in Table 2; and/or wherein (2) the gene set comprises the 381 protein-coding genes listed in Table 3 and, optionally, one of more of: a set of three genes encoding ABC transporters for phosphate import (genes MG410, MG411 and MG412; or genes MG289, MG290 and MG291); the lipoprotein-encoding gene MG185 or MG260; and/or the glycerophosphoryl diester phosphodiesterase gene MG293 or MG385.
摘要:
This invention provides a process for producing a macrocyclic lactone compound, which comprises cultivating Actinoplanes sp. FERM BP-3832, in the presence of L-proline, L-hydroxyproline or L-nipecotic acid, and then isolating a macrocyclic lactone compound from the fermentation broth. The compounds produced by this process include a compound of formula (I). The present invention also relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising the same, which is useful as immunosuppressive, antimycotic, antitumor agent or the like.

摘要:
The present invention is directed to a method for selectively enhancing the production of factors A, and/or B.sub.0 of antibiotic A 40926 either to isolate these single components in better yields or to enrich the complex in one or both the above components, which comprises adding an appropriate precursor of the desired antibiotic factor to an A 40926 producing culture during fermentation.
