The Biofuel Industry
Cellulosic (wood-based) ethanol has several advantages
Lower greenhouse gas emissions
Biomass is cheap to produce
Majority of American ethanol is corn-based
Inefficient Conflicts with food demands
The United States is currently the world’s largest producer of ethanol
![Page 3: Ian Gluck Mentor: Dr. Christine Kelly OSU Dept. of Chemical, Biological and Environmental Engineering.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051618/56649c855503460f9493c300/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
The Conversion Process
Cellulose must be converted to glucose
Performed by cellulases
Process is hindered by lignin
A large, irregular polymer
Surrounds the cellulose
![Page 4: Ian Gluck Mentor: Dr. Christine Kelly OSU Dept. of Chemical, Biological and Environmental Engineering.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051618/56649c855503460f9493c300/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Lignin
Cellulose
![Page 5: Ian Gluck Mentor: Dr. Christine Kelly OSU Dept. of Chemical, Biological and Environmental Engineering.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051618/56649c855503460f9493c300/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
The Solution
Manganese
peroxidase (MnP)
Found in white-rot
fungi
Degrades lignin
![Page 6: Ian Gluck Mentor: Dr. Christine Kelly OSU Dept. of Chemical, Biological and Environmental Engineering.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051618/56649c855503460f9493c300/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
The Solution
White-rot fungi cannot be effectively mass produced
DNA responsible for MnP production was cloned into a yeast (Pichia pastoris)
Yeast is cultivated to create recombinant manganese peroxidase (rMnP) Performs same lignin-degrading function
![Page 7: Ian Gluck Mentor: Dr. Christine Kelly OSU Dept. of Chemical, Biological and Environmental Engineering.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051618/56649c855503460f9493c300/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
The Solution
Crude yeast broth has many other proteins, as well as rMnP
For rMnP biocatalysis pathways to be investigated, it must be:
Concentrated
Purified
![Page 8: Ian Gluck Mentor: Dr. Christine Kelly OSU Dept. of Chemical, Biological and Environmental Engineering.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051618/56649c855503460f9493c300/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
The Project Purpose
To test the effectiveness of a variety
of methods in the concentration and
purification of recombinantmanganese peroxidase
![Page 9: Ian Gluck Mentor: Dr. Christine Kelly OSU Dept. of Chemical, Biological and Environmental Engineering.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051618/56649c855503460f9493c300/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The Initial Substance
White-rot fungi cultivation broth Filtered Cell-free broth submitted to:
A concentration process
A purification process
![Page 10: Ian Gluck Mentor: Dr. Christine Kelly OSU Dept. of Chemical, Biological and Environmental Engineering.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051618/56649c855503460f9493c300/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The Concentration Process
Acetone precipitation
Centrifugation/Resolubilization
Overnight freezing
Lyophilization (freeze-drying)
Dialysis
![Page 11: Ian Gluck Mentor: Dr. Christine Kelly OSU Dept. of Chemical, Biological and Environmental Engineering.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051618/56649c855503460f9493c300/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
The Purification Process
Ion exchange chromatography
Uses ionic interactions to separate molecules of different charge
Diethylaminoethyl (DEAE) column-O-CH2-CH2-N+H(CH2CH3)2•Cl-
Positive charge with negative Cl- ions Cl- ions are exchanged for MnP, and
vice versa

MnP Measurement
Sample of subject solution is mixed with buffers, DMP and H2O2
MnP in solution reacts with peroxide and DMP, forming an orange color
Absorbance of orange solution is measured
Enzyme Activity Assay
![Page 15: Ian Gluck Mentor: Dr. Christine Kelly OSU Dept. of Chemical, Biological and Environmental Engineering.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051618/56649c855503460f9493c300/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
MnP Measurement
Absorbance is used to calculate MnP concentration
Concentration * Volume Mass
Mass of MnP/ *100 = Percent Yield Previous mass of MnP
![Page 16: Ian Gluck Mentor: Dr. Christine Kelly OSU Dept. of Chemical, Biological and Environmental Engineering.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051618/56649c855503460f9493c300/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

Purification Measurement
Similar process to MnP assay
Absorbance is measured and used to find protein concentration Concentration * Volume = Mass
Mass of MnP is divided by protein mass
Mass Fraction
Total Protein Assay
![Page 18: Ian Gluck Mentor: Dr. Christine Kelly OSU Dept. of Chemical, Biological and Environmental Engineering.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051618/56649c855503460f9493c300/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
