Abstract

Although biorefinery has become a common concept to convert biomass into biofuels and value-added chemicals for better cost-performance, good microbial hosts that can be used to implement the concept are still wanting. In this study, a Kluyveromyces marxianus yeast, named KY3, was isolated from a Taiwanese kefir microbial consortium. We showed that KY3 could grow on a broad spectrum of substrates, including hexose and pentose sugars. It is heat and toxin tolerant, can grow under a wide range of pH values (pH 2.5–9), and shows a high ethanol production rate at elevated temperatures. It also can produce value-added aromatic chemicals, such as 2-phenylethylethanol and 2-phenylethyl acetate, during the fermentative process. A genetic transformation was achieved in KY3 to express a rumen fungal β-glucosidase gene, and the transgenic host (KY3–NpaBGS) could efficiently convert cellobiose to ethanol. Furthermore, it was shown that a novel dual-microbe co-culture system of Bacillus subtilis and KY3–NpaBGS can be employed for bioethanol production from cellulosic material. Thus, KY3 has a high potential to be a good host for biorefinery.
