ABSTRACT Efficient and economical deconstruction of biomass is critical for the success of lignocellulosic biorefineries. Biomass pretreatment with ionic liquids (ILs) tackles this issue as it increases biomass saccharification efficiency at lower cellulose loadings. However, some ILs inhibit the activity of commercial cellulases and must be first be removed from the … [Read more...] about Promoter Useful for High Expression of a Heterologous Gene of Interest in Aspergillus Niger 2016-092
