Described herein are recombinant fermenting organisms having a heterologous polynucleotide encoding an alpha-amylase and/or a heterologous polynucleotide encoding a trehalase. Also described are processes for producing a fermentation product, such as ethanol, from starch or cellulosic-containing material with the recombinant fermenting organisms.

Yeast expressing a heterologous trehalase for ethanol production

The present application discloses genetically modified yeast cells comprising an active 3-HP fermentation pathway, and the use of these cells to produce 3-HP.

Compositions and methods for 3-hydroxypropionic acid production

Yeast expressing a heterologous alpha-amylase for ethanol production

A recombinant yeast cell comprising a heterologous polynucleotide encoding an anti-staling/freshness amylase; in particular an anti-staling/freshness amylase selected from the group consisting of a maltogenic amylase (EC 3.2.1.133), a beta-amylase (EC 3.2.1.2), and a glucan 1,4-alpha-maltotetrahydrolase (EC 3.2.1.60).

Bakers's yeast expressing anti-staling/freshness amylases

Described herein are processes for producing ethanol from starch-containing material using astrain MBG4985 (deposited under Accession No. NRRL Y67342 at the Agricultural Research Service Patent Culture Collection (NR-RL), Northern Regional Research Center, 1815 University Street, Peoria, Ill., USA) or a fermenting organism strain having properties that are about the same as that of the depositedstrain or a derivative ofstrain MBG4985 (e.g., a recombinant derivative expressing an alpha-amylase and/or a glucoamylase) having the defining characteristics of strainyeast MBG4985. Also described isstrain MBG4985 deposited under the Budapest Treaty and having accession No. NRRL Y67342 or a derivative of strain NRRL Y67342 which exhibits one or more properties or defining characteristics of strainstrain MBG4985. Also described are compositions comprising theyeast and naturally occurring and/or non-naturally occurring components.

Yeast for ethanol production

Provided herein are recombinant yeast cells having an active 3-Hydroxypropionic Acid (3-HP) pathway and further comprising a heterologous polynucleotide encoding an aspartate 1-decarboxylase (ADC) of the Class Insecta, Bivalvia, Branchioporia, Gastropoda, or Leptocardii. Also described are methods of using the recombinant yeast cells to produce 3-HP and acrylic acid.

3-hydroxypropionic acid production by recombinant yeasts expressing an insect aspartate 1-decarboxylase

The present invention relates to isolated promoters and constructs, vectors, and fungal host cells comprising such promoters operably linked to polynucleotides encoding polypeptides. The present invention also relates to methods for producing such polypeptides.
