Construction of Yeast Strain Capable of Co-Fermenting Pentose and Hexose by Protoplast Fusion
Abstract:
Saccharomyces cerevisiae R40 and Pachysolen tannophilus P01 were used as the parental strain to construct an engineering strain capable of co-fermenting pentose and hexose by protoplast fusion. A fusant F202 was obtained through inactivating parental protoplasts, screening with YPX solid medium and high glucose liquid medium, ethanol production capacity detecting and identification with PCR-SSR technique. Subsequently, the fermentation performance and genetic stability of F202 was studied. The maximum ethanol production capacity from glucose was 1.47 ml/100 ml with a sugar and alcohol conversion rate 47% which was 11% higher than the parental strain P01. By fermenting xylose the ethanol concentration could achieve to 0.58 ml/100 ml with a sugar and alcohol conversion rate 12%. An ethanol concentration of 1.2 ml/100 ml was obtained by fermenting the mixture of xylose and glucose (mass ratio 1:2). Moreover, no decrease in ethanol yield after 8 generations propagation suggested fustant 202 possessed good genetic stability.
