Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The dependence of filamentous fungal protease secretion on morphology was investigated by employing the recombinant Aspergillus niger strain AB4.1[pgpdAGLAGFP] which contains a gene for the glucoamylase-GFP (green fluorescence protein) fusion protein. Different inoculum levels were used to obtain different sizes of pellet or free mycelia. The extracellular protease activity of the cultures varied with the pellet size and decreased dramatically when the morphology was changed from free mycelia to pellets. The culture with an optimal pellet size of 1.6 mm was obtained from an inoculum of 4 x 10(6) spores/mL. It resulted in a specific protease activity of 158 units/L, only one-third of that in free mycelial growth, and a maximum specific GFP yield of 0.98 mg/g (cell mass) compared to 0. 29 mg/g for free mycelial growth with an inoculum of 10(7) spores/mL. The results indicate that this bioprocessing strategy can be effectively used to inhibit protease activity in filamentous fungal fermentation and thereby to enhance heterologous protein production.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
