Abstract
Biofuel production from lignocellulose feedstocks is sustainable and environmentally friendly. However, the lignocellulosic pretreatment could produce fermentation inhibitors causing multiple stresses and low yield. Therefore, the engineering construction of highly resistant microorganisms is greatly significant. In this study, a composite functional chimeric cellulosome equipped with laccase, versatile peroxidase, and lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase was riveted on the surface of Saccharomyces cerevisiae to construct a novel yeast strain YI/LVP for synergistic lignin degradation and cellulosic ethanol production. The assembly of cellulosome was assayed by immunofluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry. During the whole process of fermentation, the maximum ethanol concentration and cellulose conversion of engineering strain YI/LVP reached 8.68 g/L and 83.41%, respectively. The results proved the availability of artificial chimeric cellulosome containing lignin-degradation enzymes for cellulosic ethanol production. The purpose of the study was to improve the inhibitor tolerance and fermentation performance of S. cerevisiae through the construction and optimization of a synergistic lignin-degrading enzyme system based on cellulosome.
