Rational engineering of filamentous fungi for improved cellulase production is hampered by
our incomplete knowledge of transcriptional regulatory networks. We therefore used the …

Neurospora crassa colonizes burnt grasslands in the wild and metabolizes both cellulose
and hemicellulose from plant cell walls. When switched from a favored carbon source such as …

Cellulose is recalcitrant to deconstruction to glucose for use in fermentation strategies for
biofuels and chemicals derived from lignocellulose. In Neurospora crassa, the transcriptional …

Fungal deconstruction of the plant cell requires a complex orchestration of a wide array of
intracellular and extracellular enzymes. In Neurospora crassa , CLR-1, CLR-2, and XLR-1 …

… toruloides that affect the production, use, or storage of fat in lipid bodies, Coradetti, Pinel et
al. constructed a population of hundreds of thousands of mutant fungal strains, each with its …

Improving cellulolytic enzyme production by plant biomass degrading fungi holds great potential
in reducing costs associated with production of next-generation biofuels generated from …

An oleaginous yeast Rhodosporidium toruloides is a promising host for converting lignocellulosic
biomass to bioproducts and biofuels. In this work, we performed multi-omics analysis …

Identifying nutrients available in the environment and utilizing them in the most efficient
manner is a challenge common to all organisms. The model filamentous fungus Neurospora …

R. toruloides is an oleaginous yeast, with diverse metabolic capacities and high tolerance
for inhibitory compounds abundant in plant biomass hydrolysates. While R. toruloides grows …

Background Plant biomass degradation by fungal-derived enzymes is rapidly expanding in
economic importance as a clean and efficient source for biofuels. The ability to rationally …
