Post-Translational Modification and Subcellular Trafficking Effects on Trichoderma reesei Cellulase Production, Secretion, Stability, and Efficacy Post-Translational Modification and Subcellular Trafficking Effects on Trichoderma reesei Cellulase Product

Lead Institution
National Renewable Energy Laboratory
Principal Investigator
Stephen Decker
Project type
Large-Scale EMSL Research
We propose that Post-Translation Modification (PTM) of cellulases, especially glycosylation and N-terminal capping, has significant effects on glycoside hydrolase performance; as well as productivity…

Unraveling the catabolism of lignin-derived compounds in white-rot fungi

Lead Institution
National Renewable Energy Laboratory
Principal Investigator
Davinia Salvachua Rodriguez
Project type
Large-Scale EMSL Research
White rot fungi (WRF) are the most efficient organisms for the depolymerization and mineralization of lignin to CO2 and H2O in Nature and thus, WRF play a pivotal role in carbon cycling. Lignin…
