| Research Abstract |
Pretreatment for bioethanol production from bamboo culms and rice straw was examined using basidiomycetous fungus Punctularia sp. TUFC20056, which has selective lignin removal ability of bamboo. A class II peroxidase gene was partially obtained from this fungus, and it codes manganese peroxidase (MnP). Optimal cultural conditions for producing lignin-degrading enzymes were as follows; laccase was 21- 25 C, 3-4 weeks or more, on solid culture condition; MnP was 21- 25 C, 3 weeks, in liquid culture.
Fermentable sugar yields from Punctularia sp.-treated bamboo (10%) and rice straw (46%) were higher than that of famous lignin degrader Phanerochaete sordida (2.4 and 8.9%, respectively) and Ceriporiopsis subvermispora. (6.1 and 9.7%, respectively). Punctularia sp. cannot ferment cellulose directly. But, this fungus can produce ethanol by adding cellulase under an anerobic condition, and the yields from pretreated-bamboo and -rice straw were 25.2 and 37.5%, respectively.
