Compositions and methods are provided for genome modification at a target site in the genome of a filamentous fungal cell. The methods and compositions are drawn to a guide polynucleotide/Cas endonuclease system for modifying or altering the target site. Aspects in which the filamentous fungal cell being modified has a defective non-homologous end joining pathway are also provided.

Fungal genome modification systems and methods of use

Compositions and methods are provided for genome modification at a target site in the genome of a fungal cell. The methods and compositions are drawn to a guide polynucleotide/Cas endonuclease system for promoting modification of the DNA sequence at a target site in a fungal host cell genome.

The present disclosure is generally directed to glycosyl hydrolase enzymes, compositions comprising such enzymes, and methods of using the enzymes and compositions, for example for the saccharification of cellulosic and hemicellulosic materials into sugars.

Glycosyl hydrolase enzymes and uses thereof

The present disclosure relates to filamentous fungal host strains and recombinant DNA constructs for creation and use thereof. The filamentous fungal host strains are particularly useful for efficiently screening DNA libraries encoding recombinant proteins.

Filamentous fungal host strains and DNA constructs, and methods of use thereof

The present disclosure relates to cellulase variants. In particular the present disclosure relates to cellulase variants having improved expression, activity and/or stability. Also described are nucleic acids encoding the cellulase variants, compositions comprising the cellulase variants, and methods of use thereof.

Cellulase variants with improved expression, activity and stability, and use thereof

The present invention relates to filamentous fungal host cells and particularlyhost cells useful for the production of heterologous granular starch hydrolyzing enzymes having glucoamylase activity (GSHE). Further the invention relates to a method for producing a glucose syrup comprising contacting a granular starch slurry obtained from a granular starch substrate simultaneously with an alpha amylase and a GSHE at a temperature equal to or below the gelatinization temperature of the granular starch to obtain a composition of a glucose syrup.

The present invention relates to a polypeptide having alpha-amylase activity obtained from a strain of

Polypeptides having alpha-amylase and granular starch hydrolyzing activity

[object Object]

A nucleic acid encoding an acetolactate synthase (ALS) protein that provides resistance to ALS inhibitors, e.g., sulphonylurea and imidazolinone compounds, is provided. The nucleic acid may be used as a selectable marker for expression of a protein of interest in host cells.

The present invention relates to a heterologous exo-endo cellulase fusion construct, which encodes a fusion protein having cellulolytic activity comprising a catalytic domain derived from a fungal exo-cellobiohydrolase and a catalytic domain derived from an endoglucanase. The invention also relates to vectors and fungal host cells comprising the heterologous exo-endo cellulase fusion construct as well as methods for producing a cellulase fusion protein and enzymatic cellulase compositions.
