Fungal carbohydrate active enzymes (CAZy) are vital for various industrial applications such as the conversion of plant biomass to biofuels and bio-based chemicals. The thermophilic filamentous fungus Thermoascus aurantiacus is an intriguing host for cellulase production and produces considerable quantities of cellulases and xylanases which retain high activity above 65 °C. The goal of this thesis was to uncover (1) CAZy induction and (2) CAZy gene regulation in T. aurantiacus and (3) learn from classical fungal CAZy hypersecreting Neurospora crassa mutants how to improve fungal enzyme secretion to design improved genetic- and bioprocess engineering strategies. This work involved extensive methods development and established vital knowled...
