PfMig1⁸⁸, a catabolically derepressed engineered strain of the hyper-cellulolytic fungus Penicillium funiculosum NCIM1228, was investigated for the efficacy of its secretome for biomass saccharification. An inexpensive version of media containing microcrystalline cellulose, wheat bran and soya protein was optimized for producing a high-quality secretome from the PfMig1⁸⁸ strain in both shake flasks and in a 20-L bioreactor. The activities of four classes of core cellulolytic enzymes required for saccharification in the PfMig1⁸⁸ secretome, namely, cellobiohydrolase (Avicelase activity), endoglucanase (CMCase activity), β-glucosidase (PNPGase activity) and xylanase (xylanase activity), were found to be 2.29 U/mL, 28.24 U/mL, 150 U/mL and 76 U/mL, respectively. The saccharification potential of the PfMig1⁸⁸ secretome was evaluated on rice straw and sugarcane bagasse pretreated with nitric acid and/or ammonium hydroxide. Saccharification performed using a 15 % (w/v) biomass load and a 3% (w/w) enzyme load released >100 g/L sugar in the hydrolysate, irrespective of the type of biomass and pre-treatment, with >80 % hydrolysis. Furthermore, the presence of lignin in nitric acid-pretreated biomass only marginally affected saccharification. Overall, the results demonstrated that the PfMig1⁸⁸ secretome, having relatively broad substrate specificity, is a viable and efficient substitute for T. reesei-based secretomes for diverse biomass saccharification.
