    Abstract Yeast is widely studied in producing biofuels and biochemicals using renewable biomass. Among various yeasts, Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been particularly recognized as an important yeast cell factory. However, economic bioproduction using S. cerevisiae is challenged by harsh environments during fermentation, among which inhibitory chemicals in the culture media or toxic products are common experiences. Understanding the stress-responsive mechanisms is conducive to developing robust yeast strains. Here, we review recent progress in mechanisms underlying yeast stress response, including regulation of cell wall integrity, membrane transport, antioxidative system, and gene transcription. We highlight epigenetic regulation of stress response and summarize manipulation of yeast stress tolerance for improved bioproduction. Prospects in the application of machine learning to improve production efficiency are also discussed.

    Abstract Lignocellulose is an alternative to fossil resources, but its biochemical conversion is not economically competitive. While decentralized processing can reduce logistical cost for this feedstock, sugar platforms need to be developed with energy-saving pretreatment technologies and cost-effective cellulases, and products must be selected correctly. Anaerobic fermentation with less energy consumption and lower contamination risk is preferred, particularly for producing biofuels. Great effort has been devoted to producing cellulosic ethanol, but CO

    Abstract Industrial microorganisms and their products are widely used in various fields such as industry, agriculture, and medicine, which play a pivotal role in economy. Efficient industrial strains are the key to improve production efficiency, and advanced fermentation technology as well as instrument platform is also important to develop microbial metabolic potential. In recent years, rapid development has been achieved in research of industrial microorganisms. Artificial intelligence, efficient genome-editing and synthetic biology technologies have been increasingly applied, and related industrial applications are being accomplished. In order to promote utilization of industrial microorganisms in biological manufacturing, we organized this special issue on innovation and breakthrough of industrial microorganisms.

    Abstract Corynebacterium glutamicum was developed for efficient production of succinic acid from corn stover (CS) pretreated by concentrated-alkali under steam-assistant (CASA) conditions. First, C. glutamicum was engineered by 1) blocking the by-products pathways (deletion of ldh, pta-ackA, and cat), 2) enhancing the carbon flux to succinate (overexpression of pyc and ppc), and 3) releasing the end-product inhibition (overexpression of Ncgl0275). The recombinant strain produced 117.8 g/L succinate in fed-batch fermentation. Second, to fully utilize xylose in lignocellulosic hydrolysate, two xylose utilization pathways-the isomerase pathway and the Weimberg pathway-were introduced into the recombinant strain. Third, CS was pretreated by CASA with a higher sugars yield and a lower black liquid. Finally, 64.16 g/L of succinic acid was obtained from 150 g/L CASA-pretreated CS by engineered C. glutamicum. These results showed a succinate high-producing C. glutamicum strain using glucose and xylose simultaneously as well as an effective and environmentally acceptable pretreatment strategy.

    Abstract Acetic acid is a prevalent inhibitor in lignocellulosic hydrolysate, which represses microbial growth and bioproduction. Histone modification and chromatin remodeling have been revealed to be critical for regulating eukaryotic metabolism. However, related studies in chronic acetic acid stress responses remain unclear. Our previous studies revealed that overexpression of the histone H4 methyltransferase Set5p enhanced acetic acid stress tolerance of the budding yeast

    Abstract Anaerobic digestion (AD) is an effective and applicable technology for treating organic wastes to recover bioenergy, but it is limited by various drawbacks, such as long start-up time for establishing a stable process, the toxicity of accumulated volatile fatty acids and ammonia nitrogen to methanogens resulting in extremely low biogas productivities, and a large amount of impurities in biogas for upgrading thereafter with high cost. Microbial electrolysis cell (MEC) is a device developed for electrosynthesis from organic wastes by electroactive microorganisms, but MEC alone is not practical for production at large scales. When AD is integrated with MEC, not only can biogas production be enhanced substantially, but also upgrading of the biogas product performed in situ. In this critical review, the state-of-the-art progress in developing AD-MEC systems is commented, and fundamentals underlying methanogenesis and bioelectrochemical reactions, technological innovations with electrode materials and configurations, designs and applications of AD-MEC systems, and strategies for their enhancement, such as driving the MEC device by electricity that is generated by burning the biogas to improve their energy efficiencies, are specifically addressed. Moreover, perspectives and challenges for the scale up of AD-MEC systems are highlighted for in-depth studies in the future to further improve their performance.

    Abstract Responses to acetic acid toxicity in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae have widespread implications in the biorefinery of lignocellulosic biomass and food preservation. Our previous studies revealed that Set5, the yeast lysine methyltransferase and histone H4 methyltransferase, was involved in acetic acid stress tolerance. However, it is still mysterious how Set5 functions and interacts with the known stress signaling network. Here, we revealed that elevated phosphorylation of Set5 during acetic acid stress is accompanied by enhanced expression of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) Hog1. Further experiments uncovered that the phosphomimetic mutation of Set5 endowed yeast cells with improved growth and fermentation performance and altered transcription of specific stress-responsive genes. Intriguingly, Set5 was found to bind the coding region of
