Isolation catabolite repression-resistant

A number of selective-screening methodologies have been devised that have allowed isolation of a series of hyperproducing and catabolite repression-resistant mutants of T. reesei. Yields of cellulase of 15 units/ mL under controlled fermentor conditions have been achieved with both Rut-NG14 and Rut-C30. Quantitative reaction of Rut-NG14 enzyme preparation with purified antibodies to cellobiohydrolase shows that in this mutant, the cellobiohydrolase is specifically hyperproduced relative to the rest of the enzymes in the cellulase complex. Rut-C30, which was derived from Rut-NG14, shows resistance to catabolite repression for...
